Background The current study was designed to determine the relation between preoperative cerebral oxygen saturation (Sco2), variables of cardiopulmonary function, mortality, and morbidity in a heterogeneous cohort of cardiac surgery patients. Methods In this study, 1,178 consecutive patients scheduled for on-pump surgery were prospectively studied. Preoperative Sco2, demographics, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, high-sensitive troponin T, clinical outcomes, and 30-day and 1-yr mortality were recorded. Results Median additive EuroSCORE was 5 (range: 0-19). Thirty-day and 1-yr mortality and major morbidity (at least two major complications and/or a high-dependency unit stay of at least 10 days) were 3.5%, 7.7%, and 13.3%, respectively. Median minimal preoperative oxygen supplemented Sco2 (Sco2min-ox) was 64% (range: 15-92%). Sco2min-ox was correlated (all: P value <0.0001) with N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (ρ: -0.35), high-sensitive troponin T (ρ: -0.28), hematocrit (ρ: 0.34), glomerular filtration rate (ρ: 0.19), EuroSCORE (τ: 0.20), and left ventricular ejection fraction class (τ: 0.12). Thirty-day nonsurvivors had a lower Sco2min-ox than survivors (median 58% [95% CI, 50.7-62%] vs. 64% [95% CI, 64-65%]; P < 0.0001). Receiver-operating curve analysis of Sco2min-ox and 30-day mortality revealed an area-under-the-curve of 0.71 (95% CI, 0.68-0.73%; P < 0.0001) in the total cohort and an area-under-the-curve of 0.77 (95% CI, 0.69-0.86%; P < 0.0001) in patients with a EuroSCORE more than 10. Logistic regression based on different EuroSCORE categories (0-2; 3-5, 6-10, >10), Sco2min-ox, and duration of cardiopulmonary bypass showed that a Sco2min-ox equal or less than 50% is an independent risk factor for 30-day and 1-yr mortality. Conclusions Preoperative Sco2 levels are reflective of the severity of cardiopulmonary dysfunction, associated with short- and long-term mortality and morbidity, and may add to preoperative risk stratification in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.

AbstractBackground:Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity 2 (sST2), N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high sensitive troponin I (hs-TnI), and high sensitive troponin T (hs-TnT) are representative cardiac biomarkers. The reference intervals (RIs) of these biomarkers have been rarely investigated in umbilical cord blood (UCB). We explored the distribution of these cardiac markers and established their RIs in UCB.Methods:In a total of 293 UCB specimens, sST2, NT-proBNP, hs-TnI, and hs-TnT concentrations were analyzed according to the gestational age, presence of premature membrane rupture (PROM), presence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and Apgar score at 1 min. Their RIs were defined in 133 UCB specimens from healthy, full-term neonates, using non-parametric percentile methods according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute guideline (EP28-A3C).Results:The concentrations of four cardiac markers in UCB were different between full-term neonates and pre-term neonates. The concentrations of NT-proBNP and hs-TnI differed according to the presence or absence of PROM. Their concentrations did not differ regardless of the presence of GDM. The concentrations of sST2 and NT-proBNP differed according to the Apgar score at 1 min. The 97.5th percentile upper reference limits were: sST2, 59.9 ng/mL; NT pro-BNP, 1415.3 pg/mL; hs-TnI, 27.8 pg/mL; and hs-TnT, 86.5 pg/mL.Conclusions:The distribution of sST2, NT pro-BNP, hs-TnI, and hs-TnT in UCB together with their RIs would provide fundamental data for future researches and clinical practice.
