The Role of Protein C as an Inhibitor of Blood Clotting During Extracorporeal Circulation

Abstract: The plasma levels of protein C, AT III, the perioperative administration of fresh frozen plasma (FFP) and AT III concentrate were compared under the use of various drugs in a randomized, prospective double-blind study in 40 patients in whom an aortocoronary bypass operation was carried out. We formed four groups of ten patients: group A served as a control group, group B received a prostacyclin (PGI2) infusion of 10 or 20 ng/kg/min, group C high-dose aprotinin substitution, and group D was treated with a combi… Show more

“…The values were corrected for hemodilution using the hematocrit. 5 Plasma creatine kinase MB-isoenzyme (CK-MB) activity was measured 3 times in every patient: 6 hours after CPB and on the 1st and 2nd postoperative days. ( p = 0.78), and significantly increased further at 20 h to 287.9 ± 62.9 ng•mL -1 ( p < 0.01) as shown in Figure 1.…”

“…The final two paired samples (35 and 45 minutes) were taken after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass. The values of troponin T and CK-MB taken while on cardiopulmonary bypass were corrected for haemodilution by multiplying the measured component with a correction factor (CF) as described by Feindt et al 9: CF = PCV o pPCV o pPCV 1 PCV 1 where PCV is packed cell volume (%), pPCV is plasma packed cell volume (100% − PCV%), 0 is the value before cardiopulmonary bypass, and 1 the value at the time of sampling.…”

“…The detection levels were 0.1, 0.5, 0.35 ng/ml for sE-selectin, sP-selectin, and sICAM-1, respectively. The values were corrected by hemodilution using the hematocrit [9]. Creatine kinase cardiac isoenzymemuscle-bound (CK-MB) release was analyzed three times in every patient: 6 hours after CPB and on the first and second postoperative days.…”
