Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of lipo-alprostadil on lung injury in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.Methods Forty-eight ASA Ⅱ-Ⅳ patients of both sexes,aged 45-64 yr,weighing 45-70 kg,scheduled for elective orthotopic liver transplantation,were randomly assigned to one of 2 groups (n =24 each):control group (group C) and lipo-alprostadil group (group A).Anesthesia was induced with midazolam,propofol,fentanyl and vecuronium and maintained with sevoflurane,sufentanil and vecuronium.The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated.Lipo-alprostadil 5 μg in 10 ml of normal saline was infused intravenously and slowly over 30 min before induction of anesthesia and at 1 h of neohepatic phase in group A.Lipoalprostadil was not administrated in group C.Peak inspiratory pressure (PIP),mean inspiratory pressure (Pmean),dynamic lung compliance (Cd),oxygenation index (OI),respiratory index (RI) and the concentrations of inflammatory cytokines in exhaled breath condensate (EBC) were recorded immediately before operation,at the end of operation,and at 24 h after operation.The occurrence of pulmonary complications was recorded within 7days after operation.Results Compared with group C,PIP,Pmean,RI,and TNF-α and IL-8 concentrations in EBC were significantly decreased,while Cd and OI were increased at the end of operation and 24 h after operation,and the incidence of acute lung injury and pulmonary infection were decreased within 7 days after operation (P ＜0.05),and no significant change in the other indexes was found in group A (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Lipo-alprostadil has protective effect on lung in patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.
