Effects of Heparin Coating of Cardiopulmonary Bypass Circuits on In Vitro Oxygen Free Radical Production During Coronary Bypass Surgery

Abstract: During cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) oxygen free radicals (OFR) are formed, which can mediate reactions damaging tissue components. Blood contact with artificial surfaces during CPB leads to an activation of leukocytes, which are one of the sources of the OFR. Heparin coating of the CPB circuit reduces granulocyte activation. In the present study, the heparin-coated circuits with noncoated cardiotomy reservoirs (Group HC) were compared with noncoated, otherwise similar CPB sets (Group C). In each group, 8 patie… Show more

“…Excellent resuscitation was obtained (data not shown), and no blood coagulation or microclots were found in the coated devices. Numerous studies [27][28][29] in which the same type of coating in cardiopulmonary bypass was used have shown greatly improved outcome. Release of heparin from the coating was virtually undetectable.…”

“…The benefits gained by heparin-coated circuits are a restriction of complement activation (mainly of factor C5a) ranging between 25% and 45% [61,62], and a decrease in the inflammatory response via the limitation of complement activation and binding of phospholipase A2 [63]. The final result is improved clinical outcomes, thanks to a decrease in the inflammatory response being considerable by reduced levels of IL-6, IL-8, E-selectin, lactoferin, myeloperoxidase, integrin, selectin, platelet b-thromboglobulin, and oxygen-free radicals [19,[63][64][65][66]. Nevertheless, heparin appears not to influence thrombin production and fibrinolysis [67].…”

“…The bactericidal effect and induction of inflammation by reactive oxygen produced by granulocytes are known as the immune function, there are some reports about pathophysiology of each organ (lung [70][71][72][73][74][75], cardiovascular [76][77][78], kidney [79,80], liver [81], etc.) and evaluation of treatment (drug [79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86][87][88][89][90][91][92][93], food factor [94], operation [95], etc.) by radical oxygen measurement of neutrophilic granulocyte from human blood samples.…”
