“…Despite less impressive than other studies, MUF clearly minimized some of the burdens in neonates undergoing ASO, thereby assisting quick recovery of this entity. When this novel perfusion technique emerged in the early 1990s, it was hypothesized that MUF attenuates capillary leak, especially in small infants, by removing excessive fluid as well as some proinflammatory cyokines; 14,20 however, this hypothesis has never been tested in any previous studies. In the present study, we compared the changes of the amount of peritoneal fluid between the groups as a parameter of capillary leakage because neonates and infants have a particular propensity for capillary leakage into the peritoneal cavity.…”

“…21 Although insignificant, there was a trend toward reduced peritoneal fluid discharge in the first 24 h in the MUF-treated group. Given the fact that the major factors causing capillary leakage are hemodilution, fluid overload and inflammatory response, 14,20 it can be hypothesized that MUF could, not perfectly but partly, address these major factors, thereby potentially attenuating capillary leak after neonatal open-heart surgery. Obviously, this speculation is based on insignificant findings seen in the present study, which is not valid enough to draw a strong conclusion, but further study on the effects of MUF on capillary leak syndrome following CPB is warranted.…”

“…[1][2][3][4] However, there are no reports about the relationship between the change in the levels of several cytokines and PF drainage after cardiac operation under CPB. We consider that the peritoneal cavity is the largest reservoir of proinflammatory cytokines in the body, 12 and the present study was designed to confirm our hypothesis that PF drainage is useful for quickly improving the patient's condition by reducing proinflammatory cytokines in vivo, which is directly translated into an improvement in clinical outcome.…”

“…In some centers, peritoneal drainage catheters are used as adjuncts to traditional methods of mitigating postoperative fluid overload in this patient population [4][5][6][7][8][9]. These catheters are typically placed intraoperatively and are allowed to drain passively to gravity, acting as an additional means of removing unwanted extravascular fluid.…”
