Capillary leak syndrome (CLS) is an urgent problem in postoperative patients, is challenging to diagnose early, and has a poor prognosis. We investigated a quick and convenient diagnostic indicator of secondary CLS in children after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
We conducted this single-center, observational, prospective study in the Department of Critical Care Medicine at the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University. All the data were collected within 24 h after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The secondary CLS risk factors were determined using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis, and the cut-off point of secondary CLS was found by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis.
Our study included two hundred four pediatric patients in the PICU after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). 42.65% (87/204) of patients were diagnosed with secondary CLS. The incidence of acute kidney injury (AKI) was 36.76% (75/204), and the mortality was 5.39% (11/204). Logistic analysis indicated that a pulmonary exudation on chest radiograph, a high thoracic fluid content (TFC) and a higher vasoactive inotropic score (VIS) were independent risk factors for secondary CLS [odds ratio [OR] 23.62, 95% confidence interval [CI] 7.20-90.41, < 0.001; OR 1.08, 95% CI 1.02-1.16, = 0.010; OR 1.06, 95% CI 1.01-1.14, = 0.049; respectively]. According to the ROC analysis, the cut-off point for the TFC was 52 (Ω).
The TFC plays a key role in the early prediction of secondary CLS in children after CPB, and this novel indicator may help clinicians initiate intensive treatment as early as possible.
毛细血管渗漏综合征(CLS)是术后患者面临的一个紧迫问题,早期诊断具有挑战性,且预后较差。我们研究了一种快速便捷的诊断小儿体外循环(CPB)后继发性CLS的指标。
我们在重庆医科大学附属儿童医院重症医学科进行了这项单中心、观察性、前瞻性研究。所有数据均在体外循环(CPB)后24小时内收集。使用单因素和多因素逻辑回归分析确定继发性CLS的危险因素,并通过受试者工作特征(ROC)分析找到继发性CLS的截断点。
我们的研究纳入了204例体外循环(CPB)后入住儿科重症监护病房(PICU)的患儿。42.65%(87/204)的患者被诊断为继发性CLS。急性肾损伤(AKI)的发生率为36.76%(75/204),死亡率为5.39%(11/204)。逻辑分析表明,胸部X线片上的肺部渗出、高胸液含量(TFC)和较高的血管活性药物评分(VIS)是继发性CLS的独立危险因素[比值比(OR)23.62,95%置信区间(CI)7.20 - 90.41,P < 0.001;OR 1.08,95% CI 1.02 - 1.16,P = 0.010;OR 1.06,95% CI 1.01 - 1.14,P = 0.049;分别]。根据ROC分析,TFC的截断点为52(Ω)。
TFC在小儿体外循环(CPB)后继发性CLS的早期预测中起关键作用,这一新型指标可能有助于临床医生尽早启动强化治疗。
