Objective: To determine the protective effect of zero-balanced ultrafiltration and modified ultrafiltration on infants' pulmonary function after cardiac surgery.

Methods: Sixty infants with congenital heart diseases were randomly divided into 3 groups: a zero-balanced ultrafiltration group (Z group), a modified ultrafiltration group (M group) and a zero-balanced ultrafiltration with modified ultrafiltration group (Z+M group). Oxygenation index (OI), difference of alveoli-arterial oxygen pressure (P(A-α)O2), static lung compliance (Cstat), and airway resistance (Raw) were measured before caridopulmonary bypass (CPB, T1), 20 minutes after the CPB (T2), 2 h after the operation (T3), 6 h after the operation (T4) and 12 h after the operation (T5). The time of mechanical ventilation was also monitored.

Results: After the CPB, OI and Cstat in all groups decreased significantly, while Raw and P(A-α)O2 increased significantly. At T3, T4 and T5, OI and Cstat in the Z+M group were significantly higher than those in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05), Raw and P(A-α)O2 in the Z+M group were significantly lower than those in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05). The ventilation time in the Z+M group was significantly shorter than that in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05).

Conclusion: Zero-balanced ultrafiltration and modified ultrafiltration can effectively promote the pulmonary function after cardiac surgery in infants.

Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass is known to raise the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI). Previous studies have identified numerous risk factors of cardiopulmonary bypass including the possible impact of perioperative ultrafiltration. However, the association between ultrafiltration (UF) and AKI remains conflicting.

Avoiding or managing hyperkalemia during cardiac surgery, especially in a patient with chronic renal insufficiency, can be challenging. Hyperkalemic cardioplegia solution is usually administered to achieve and maintain an electrical arrest of the heart. This solution eventually mixes in with the systemic circulation, contributing to elevated systemic potassium levels.

Objectives: The authors investigated whether zero-balance ultrafiltration (Z-BUF) during bypass significantly improves clinical and cost outcomes or biomarkers of kidney injury for patients with preoperative kidney impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR]<60 mL/minute) undergoing cardiac surgery.

Design: A single-center randomized controlled trial recruited, patients between 2010 and 2013, with a 12-months follow-up.

Setting: Hospital.

Routine perioperative intravenous antimicrobial agents are administered as surgical prophylaxis. However, whether balanced ultrafiltration during extracorporeal circulation has substantial effect on the concentration of antimicrobial agents remains unclear. The concentrations of antimicrobial agents in plasma and ultrafiltrate samples were measured in this pseudo-extracorporeal circulation model.
