Cytokines and troponin-I in cardiac dysfunction after coronary artery grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract: Objective -The association between cytokines and troponin-I with cardiac function after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass remains a topic of continued investigation. Methods -

“…Aortic clamping and extra-corporeal circulation probably constitute the most important causes of metabolic changes in patients undergoing intervention (Savaris et al 2001;Berkan and Sagban 2002). This is confirmed in our study; together with TnT, it is the myoglobin variable that best detects the changes, in relation to the type of surgery.…”

“…Nevertheless, the practical logistic difficulty of transferring all patients from the intensive care unit in the first few postoperative days after heart surgery, when they are frequently in severe conditions, with pleural and mediastinal drains and sometimes with other apparatuses, such as catheters to monitor pulmonary arterial pressure and systemic arterial pressure, pacemakers and intra-aortic balloons, to a nuclear medicine laboratory to perform myocardial scintigraphy with pyrophosphate technetium, is unfeasible. Even though recently there have been some publications describing the use of troponin in MR [4][5][6], a consensus has not been reached yet that defines a cutoff point in the diagnosis of perioperative AMI.…”

“…These are caused by a systemic response, due to the non-physiological nature of cardiopulmonary bypass (CABG), which induces a systemic inflammatory reaction mediated by autoimmune substances, such as interleukins and their complements 7,8 . Moreover, the use of CABG with an arrested heart may result in myocardial dysfunction and, in some patients, hibernating myocardium, hemorrhagic diathesis, neurological impairment, tissue edema, and renal failure 9,10 .…”
