Cardiopulmonary bypass without systemic heparinization. Performance of heparin-coated oxygenators in comparison with classic membrane and bubble oxygenators

LK von Segesser and M Turina
Clinic for Cardiovascular Surgery, University Hospital, Zurich, Switzerland.

Performance characteristics of heparin-coated hollow-fiber membrane oxygenators (COATED HFMO, n = 5) were evaluated in an open-chest dog model without systemic heparinization. Four other oxygenators were evaluated with standard systemic heparinization (300 IU/kg, activated clotting time more than 400 seconds): a standard hollow-fiber membrane oxygenator (HFMO, n = 5), an inversed hollow-fiber membrane oxygenator (IHFMO, n = 5), a plate membrane oxygenator (PLATE MO, n = 5) and a bubble oxygenator (BUBBLE O, n = 5). The 25 dogs (36 +/- 12 kg) were perfused after cavo-aortic cannulation for 6 hours with a mean flow of 100 ml/kg body weight. At the end of perfusion without systemic heparin, heparin-coated equipment was replaced in three animals with standard uncoated equipment for control studies. Besides continuous hemodynamic evaluation with Mikro-Tip pressure transducers (Millar Instruments, Inc., Houston, Texas), a standard battery of analyses was performed before, after mixing, and every 30 minutes during bypass. All animals could be perfused in accordance with the protocol. Blood-gas values (pH, arterial oxygen tension, and arterial carbon dioxide tension) were maintained within physiologic ranges for all groups. After 6 hours of perfusion, plasma hemoglobin levels were as follows: 0.57 +/- 0.51 gm/L for COATED HFMO without systemic heparinization versus 2.65 +/- 1.02 gm/L for HFMO (p less than 0.05), 1.77 +/- 0.48 gm/L for IHFMO (p less than 0.05), 1.96 +/- 0.41 gm/L for PLATE O (p less than 0.05), and 1.5 +/- 0.40 gm/L for BUBBLE O (p less than 0.05) with systemic heparinization. Platelet levels were highest for COATED HFMO with 47% +/- 36% without systemic heparinization versus 33% +/- 9% for HFMO, 12% +/- 2% for IHFMO, 36% +/- 17% for PLATE O, and 19% +/- 12% for BUBBLE O with systemic heparinization. Activated clotting time for COATED HFMO without systemic heparinization was 135 +/- 75 seconds before bypass, 207 +/- 21 seconds after mixing, and 131 +/- 20 seconds after 4 hours of perfusion. There was no statistically significant increase of plasma heparin levels in the group perfused without systemic heparin. Determination of fibrin split products during perfusion without systemic heparinization did not show a significant increase. At the end of perfusion all devices were disconnected and gently rinsed with saline: There were no macroscopic clots in the COATED HFMO group perfused without systemic heparin. However, uncoated equipment introduced for control in animals perfused without systemic heparin showed major clotting.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
