Brief summary
Retrospective study determine whether ulinastatin enhances postoperative pulmonary oxygenation after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Detailed description
This retrospective study evaluate patients who underwent aortic valvular surgery under moderate hypothermic CPB. The patients were classified into two groups: patients in whom high-dose ulinastatin (10,000 U/kg and 5,000 U/kg/h) was administered during CPB (Group-U); and patients in whom ulinastatin was not administered (Group-C). We measured PaO2/FiO2 at the following time points: before CPB (Pre-CPB), 2 hours after weaning from CPB (Post-CPB) and within 6 hours after admission to the ICU. The lengths of ventilator care and ICU stay were also reviewed.
Interventions
ulinastatin (10000 U/kg and 5000 U/kg/h) was administered during CPB
conventional CPB was applied without ulinastatin treatment
