Randomized Controlled Trial[Safety of del Nido cardioplegia in coronary artery bypass grafting combined with heart valve replacement in adults].
Objective: To investigate the safety and myocardial protective effect of del Nido cardioplegia in coronary artery bypass grafting combined with heart valve replacement in adults. Methods: From April 2018 to April 2019, 84 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting combined with heart valve replacement under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University and Shanghai Chest Hospital were selected, and divided into del Nido cardioplegia (n=44) group and Thomas cardioplegia (n=40) group using a random number table. The concentration of troponin was measured before anesthesia induction and 2, 12 and 24 hours after the termination of CPB, respectively. ⋯ No statistically significant differences were found in the postoperative recovery of cardiac autonomic rhythm (P=0.887), cardiac defibrillation (P=0.880), positive inotropic drugs (P=0.163) and left ventricular ejection fraction (P=0.338) between the two groups. Conclusions: It is safe to use del Nido cardioplegia in coronary artery bypass grafting combined with heart valve replacement in adults, which can reduce the frequency of cardioplegia infusion and simplify the surgical procedure. The trend of troponin concentration suggests that del Nido cardioplegia has a better myocardial protective effect.
