Preoperative Fibrinogen Levels as a Predictor of Postoperative Bleeding after Open Heart Surgery

Abstract: The results of this study suggested that low preoperative fibrinogen level appears to be a useful diagnostic marker to assess the activity of the coagulation system, and that its preoperative level may serve as a potential risk factor for postoperative bleeding after coronary artery bypass surgery.

“…This was based upon a small set of data in which four out of four patients showed signs of microvascular bleeding at fibrinogen levels of 0.58 g.dl À1 [28]. Recently, studies in gynaecology, neurosurgery and cardiac surgery have shown an increased risk of bleeding in patients with fibrinogen levels between 1.5 and 2 g.dl À1 [29][30][31][32]. Laboratory measurement of fibrinogen, classically by Clauss, is time consuming and prone to errors at the extremes of values [33].…”

“…Kraujavimas širdies chirurgijoje išlieka dideliu iššūkiu ir dažnai būna vienas pagrindinių veiksnių, lemiančių baigtis. [5] Pooperacinis kraujavimas po širdies operacijų, literatūros duomenimis, yra susijęs su blogesnėmis pooperacinėmis baigtimis [6,7]. Nustatyta daug rizikos veiksnių, sąlygojančių perioperacinį kraujo netekimą: amžius, mažas kūno paviršiaus plotas, kombinuotos operacijos (AVJSO ir vožtuvų chirurgija), šuntų skaičius (≥ 5), priešoperacinis antiagregantų vartojimas, pailgėjusi DKA trukmė (>150 min.…”

“…When investigating congenital fibrinogen defects, more complex and time-consuming tests are employed. There is evidence that the low preoperative fibrinogen concentrations correlate with higher peri-operative blood loss in coronary artery bypass surgery (32,33). Pre-operative prophylactic fibrinogen infusion may be beneficial, although larger trials are required to determine safety and efficacy of this practice (34).…”
