Lactate level during cardiopulmonary bypass as a predictor of postoperative outcomes in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery
BACKGROUND: It has been reported that prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay after cardiac surgery is associated with poor patient outcome. In addition, prolonged stay can block the efficient use of ICU beds with an increase in expenditure of health-care costs. The aim of the present study was to...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: It has been reported that prolonged intensive care unit (ICU) stay after cardiac surgery is associated with poor patient outcome. In addition, prolonged stay can block the efficient use of ICU beds with an increase in expenditure of health-care costs. The aim of the present study was to retrospectively determine which pre- and intra-operative factors could significantly affect ICU-free survival days (IFSD) which has been suggested to reflect postoperative patients’ outcome, as well as variables significantly associated with the main predictors of IFSD. FINDINGS: We reviewed anesthesia charts and medical records of 145 patients undergoing cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in our hospital from January 2014 to October 2015, and 72 patients’ records were finally used for the analysis. IFSD was a median of 25 days (95% CI 24–26). The multiple regression analysis indicated that preoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate, differences between preoperative mean arterial pressure and mean CPB pressure, and blood lactate level at 2 h after CPB (CPB-2 h) were independently associated with IFSD (β regression coefficients 0.086, −0.083, and −3.601, respectively). CONCLUSION: In addition to preoperative renal function and differences between preoperative MAP and CPB pressure, the lactate level at CPB-2 h could be a major predictor of postoperative outcome in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. |
