Characteristics of sublingual microcirculatory changes during the early postoperative period following cardiopulmonary bypass-assisted cardiac surgery-a prospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Persistent microcirculatory dysfunction associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Interventions in the early resuscitation can be tailored to the changes of microcirculation and patient's need. However, there is usually an uncoupling of macrocirculatory and microcirculatory hemodynamics during resuscitation. Current research on the patterns of microcirculatory changes and recovery after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-assisted cardiac surgery is limited. This study aimed to analyze changes in the microcirculatory parameters after CPB and their correlation with macrocirculation and to explore the characteristics of microcirculatory changes following CPB-assisted cardiac surgery.

Methods

Between December 2018 and January 2019, 24 adult patients with indwelling
