Impact of Increasing Lower Body Negative Pressure and Its Abrupt Release on Left Ventricular Hemodynamics in Anesthetized Pigs.

ABSTRACT: Lower body negative pressure (LBNP) has been implemented as a tool to simulate systemic effects of hypovolemia, understand orthostatic challenges and study G load stress in humans. However, the exact hemodynamic mechanisms of graded LBNP followed by its abrupt release have not been characterized in detail, limiting its potential applications in humans. Here, we set out to investigate the immediate hemodynamic alterations occurring during LBNP in healthy Landrace pigs. Invasive cardiac monitoring via extensive pressure volume loop analysis was carried out during application of incremental LBNP up to life threatening levels from -15 to -45 mmHg as well as during its abrupt release. Three different sealing positions were evaluated. Incremental LBNP consistently induced a preload dependent depression of systemic hemodynamics according to the Frank-Starling mechanism. Overall, the pressure-volume loop progressively shifted leftwards and downwards with increasing LBNP intensity. The abrupt release of LBNP reverted the above-described hemodynamic changes to baseline values within only three respiratory cycles. These data provide quantitative translational insights into hemodynamic mechanisms of incremental and very high levels of LBNP, levels of seal and effect of abrupt release for future human applications, such as countermeasure development for long spaceflight.

Project description:BackgroundThe assessment of hemodynamics in patients supported with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) is often challenging. Physical examination maneuvers correlate poorly with true hemodynamics. We assessed the value of novel transthoracic echocardiography (TTE)-derived variables to reliably predict hemodynamics in patients supported with LVAD.Methods and resultsA total of 102 Doppler-TTE images of the LVAD outflow cannula were obtained during simultaneous invasive right heart catheterization (RHC) in 30 patients supported with continuous-flow LVADs (22 HMII, 8 HVAD) either during routine RHC or during invasive ramp testing. Properties of the Doppler signal though the outflow cannula were measured at each ramp stage (RS), including the systolic slope (SS), diastolic slope (DS), and velocity time integral (VTI). Hemodynamic variables were concurrently recorded, including Doppler opening pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), right atrial pressure, pulmonary artery pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (PCWP), Fick cardiac output (CO) and systemic vascular resistance (SVR). Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were used to explore the dependence of PCWP, CO, and SVR on DS, SS, VTI, MAP, HR, and RS. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed significant contributions of DS on PCWP (PCWPpred = 0.164DS + 4.959; R = 0.68). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis revealed that PCWPpred could predict an elevated PCWP ≥18 mm Hg with a sensitivity (Sn) of 94% and specificity (Sp) of 85% (area under the ROC curve 0.88). CO could be predicted by RS, VTI, and HR (COpred = 0.017VTI + 0.016HR + 0.12RS + 2.042; R = 0.61). COpred could predict CO ≤4.5 L/min with Sn 73% and Sp 79% (AUC 0.81). SVR could be predicted by MAP, VTI, and HR (SVRpred = 15.44MAP - 5.453VTI - 6.349HR + 856.15; R = 0.84) with Sn 84% and Sp 79% (AUC 0.91) to predict SVR ≥1200 dyn-s/cm5.ConclusionsDoppler-TTE variables derived from the LVAD outflow cannula can reliably predict PCWP, CO, and SVR in patients supported with LVADs and may mitigate the need for invasive testing.
