- Abstract: Objective To assess the impact of intravenous esketamine administered prior to car-diopulmonary bypass(CPB)initiation on ventricular function and internal carotid artery blood flow in pa-tients undergoing heart valve replacement surgery.Methods Sixty patients underwent elective CPB heart valve replacement,38 males and 22 females,aged 18-75 years,BMI 18.5-30.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,NYHA cardiac function classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ,and a left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)of≥45％,were selected.The patients were randomly divided into two groups:esketamine group(group E)and normal saline group(group C),30 patients in each group.Total intravenous anesthesia was used during the operation.Following the initiation of CPB,group E received an intravenous infusion of es-ketamine at a rate of 0.5 mg·kg-1·h-1 until the conclusion of the procedure,while group C received an equivalent volume of normal saline concurrently at the same rate.HR,MAP,CVP,and cardiac output index(CI)were recorded before anesthesia induction,during skin resection,and within 60 minutes after stopping CPB.LVEF,left ventricular global longitudinal strain(GLS),global longitudinal time-to-peak strain standard deviation(GLTSD),global circumferential strain(GCS),global circumferential time-to-peak strain standard deviation(GCTSD),right ventricular ejection fraction(RVEF),right ventricular GLS,and GLTSD were obtained during skin resection,within 40 minutes of CPB,and 60 minutes after stopping CPB.rScO2,BIS,concentrations of Hb and lactic acid(Lac),peak systolic flow velocity(SPV),quantity of flow-internal carotid artery(Q-ICA),and blood flow resistance index(RI)were recorded before anesthesia induction,during skin resection,within 40 minutes of CPB,and within 60 minutes after stopping CPB.Concentrations of cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),creatinine(Cr),and neuron-specific enolase(NSE)were recorded before anesthesia induction and 6 hours after operation.Spon-taneous resuscitation after CPB,postoperative extubation time,duration of ICU stay,total hospital stay,in-cidence of adverse cardiac events,and 30-day postoperative mortality were recorded.Results Compared with group C,group E exhibited a significant increase in CI within 60 minutes after stopping CPB(P＜0.05).The LVEF,RVEF,and right ventricular GLS demonstrated significant increases within 60 minutes after stopping CPB in group E compared with group C(P＜0.05).The left ventricular GLS and left ven-tricular GCTSD displayed significant increases 30 minutes after stopping CPB in group E compared with group C.The RI exhibited a significant increase within 40 minutes of CPB in group E compared with group C(P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in cTnⅠ,ALT,Cr,NSE,spontaneous resuscitation affter CPB,postoperative extubation time,duration of ICU stay,total hospital stay,incidence of cardiac adverse events,and 30-day postoperative mortality between the two groups.Conclusion Administration of esket-amine following the onset of CPB in patients undergoing cardiac surgery demonstrates a significant elevation in CI post-CPB cessation.Furthermore,it may augment ventricular longitudinal strain,thereby enhancing myocardial contraction,leading to increased postoperative ventricular ejection fraction,and sustaining hemo-dynamic stability.
