Abstract:
Objective To monitor right heart hemodynamic changes of patients with lung cancer during and after the procedures of pneumonectomy and discuss the effect of pneumonectomy on right heart function and risk of postoperation morbidities. Method 16 patients with lung cancer were randomly selected and the clinical database was queried and Swan-Ganz catheter was applied awake from jugular vein to pulmonary artery ,measuring mean arterial pressure(MAP) ,heart rate(HR) ,central venous pressure(CVP) ,mean pulmonary artery pressure (MPAP),mean pulmonary capllary wedge pressure(MPCWP) ,and eardiaoc output(CO) and calculating cardiac index (CI),left ventricular-stroke work index (LVSWI), right ventricular stroke work index (RVSWI) , and stroke volume index(SVI) instantaneously before anaesthesia, after anaesthesia with single lung ventilation, after pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein occlusion and supine chest dosed during the procedure of pneumonectomy. Pre-and post-operative complications were recored. Results Cardiovascular complications occurred in 6 patients(37.5%) postoperatively. There were no operative or perioperative deaths. MPAP increased significantly after the procedure of pneumonectomy compared with that of preoperation, and MPAP > 26 mm Hg was in 4 patients who got cardiovascular complications postoperatively with morbidity of 100% ,which was "significantly higher than the morbidity of 16.7% (2/12) when MPAP < 25 mm Hg. Conclusion Pneumonectomy has significant effects on right heart hemodynemic changes and as MPAP increases postoperatively, the risk of cardiovascular complications becomes higher.
