BackgroundCardiopulmonary bypass can result in lung injury. This prospective, double-blinded, randomized trial aimed to evaluate the protective effect of inhaled budesonide on lung injury after cardiopulmonary bypass.MethodsSixty patients, aged 25 to 65 years, requiring cardiopulmonary bypass were randomized to groups treated with saline or budesonide inhalation preoperatively. The respiratory mechanics were recorded. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was collected before cardiopulmonary bypass and after sternal closure. Serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid levels of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory factors were analyzed. The primary end point was the lowest ratio of the partial pressure of arterial oxygen to the fraction of inspired oxygen after cardiopulmonary bypass. The durations of ventilation and postoperative recovery time were noted.ResultsBudesonide significantly improved respiratory mechanics after cardiopulmonary bypass. Budesonide improved the partial pressure of arterial oxygen to the fraction of inspired oxygen ratio from 8 to 48 hours after the operation. Budesonide shortened the durations of mechanical ventilation and postoperative recovery time. Budesonide decreased the levels of proinflammatory factors while increasing the levels of anti-inflammatory factors in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and serum (all P < .05). The macrophage and neutrophil counts, and protein and elastase concentrations were decreased by budesonide treatment.ConclusionsBudesonide treatment shortened the durations of mechanical ventilation, inhibited local and systemic inflammation, and improved respiratory function after cardiopulmonary bypass.Copyright © 2018 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery.
