Adult patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) repair surgery often involves hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and is associated with postoperative neurological complications. Our study evaluates brain function during PDA surgery using regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) and bispectral index (BIS) monitoring to mitigate these complications. Patients were categorized into moderate (26-31 ℃) and mild (32-35 ℃) hypothermia groups. Findings indicate a positive correlation between PDA diameter and pulmonary artery systolic blood pressure, and a strong correlation between delirium and average rSO2-AUC. The mild hypothermia group had longer extubation and hospitalization times. During CPB, rSO2 levels fluctuated significantly, and EEG analysis revealed changes in brain wave patterns. One case of nerve injury in the mild hypothermia group showed incomplete recovery after a year. Our results advocate for moderate hypothermia during CPB in adult PDA repair, suggesting that combined rSO2 and BIS monitoring can reduce neurological complications post-surgery.

BACKGROUND:Vasopressin can constrict peripheral arteries without constricting the pulmonary artery. Theoretically, vasopressin is suitable for the perioperative treatment of pulmonary hypertension. Few studies have investigated the use of pituitrin (a substitute for vasopressin) after cardiac defect repair surgery. This study aimed to analyze the effect of pituitrin on hemodynamics and to determine whether pituitrin can be used after surgical repair in adult patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension-congenital heart disease (PAH-CHD).METHODS:A pulmonary artery catheter was used in all the patients for hemodynamic monitoring. Hemodynamic parameters were recorded before and at 0.5 h, 1 h, 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after pituitrin administration. The changes in the hemodynamic parameters before and after pituitrin use were analyzed through repeated measures analysis of variance.RESULTS:A total of 110 patients with PAH-CHD underwent repair surgery; 23 patients were included in further analysis, including 11 with atrial septal defect, 9 with ventricular septal defect, and 3 with patent ductus arteriosus. Ten (43.5%) were men, with a mean age of 29.4 ± 6.8 years. Hemodynamic parameters before and after the oxygen test were as follows: radial artery oxygen saturation, 91.5% ± 4.4 vs. 97.9 ± 2.4%; pulmonary vascular resistance, 10.5 ± 1.8 Wood units (wu) vs. 5 ± 1.2 wu; systemic-pulmonary blood flow ratio (QP/QS), 1.1 ± 0.2 vs. 2.1 ± 0.9. With prolonged use, the systolic blood pressure of the radial artery increased significantly (P = 0.001), that of the pulmonary artery decreased significantly (P = 0.009), and RP/s decreased significantly (P < 0.001).CONCLUSION:Pituitrin as an alternative to vasopressin can increase arterial pressure, decrease pulmonary artery pressure, and reduce the pulmonary artery pressure/arterial pressure ratio after repair surgery in adult patients with PAH-CHD.

OBJECTIVE:To review the results of the valve-sparing operation (David procedure) in patients with aortic root disease.METHODS:Twenty-nine patients with aortic root disease, 20 males and 9 females, aged 39 +/- 17 (10-64), 10 being of heart functional class I, 15 of class II, and 4 of class III, and 15 with gentle, 9 with moderate, and 5 with severe aortic insufficiency underwent David procedure, one undergoing the aortic valve-sparing reimplantation (David I), 25 undergoing aortic valve-sparing remodeling (David II), and 3 undergoing a new modified aortic valve-sparing operation. After the operation the patients were followed up for 29 +/- 15 months (5-74 months).RESULTS:No intra-operative death was found. The mean extracorporeal circulation time was 126 min +/- 25 min, and the aortic crossclamp time was 87 min +/- 22 min. All patients recovered to heart functional class I. Post-operatively 11 patients showed no normal, eight gently and two moderate aortic regurgitation.CONCLUSION:The valve-sparing operation is an ideal operation to the aortic root aneurysm with more or less normal aortic leaflets and valvular ring normal.
