Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effect of extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (ECMO) on the small bowel preservation in a porcine model of controlled donors after cardiac death (CDCD).Method The domestic crossbred donor pigs were anesthetized and ventilated with 100％ oxyger.An intravenous cannula was placed through iliac arteries and jugular vein,and connected to ECMO system.The ECMO was performed to infuse abdominal organs when cardiac death was declared.Pathology,electron microscope,energy metabolism and cell apoptosis level of intestinal mucosa were evaluated before operation,in cardiac death and at the end of extracorporeal support,respectively.Result The normothermic extracorporeal support could quickly restore graft blood supply and oxygenation.One-h extracorporeal support could improve the energy status in intestine of donation after cardiac death (DCD).The histologic damage and apoptosis of 1-h extracorporeal support had no significant difference with those before operation and in cardiac death (P＞0.05).With the extension of extracorporeal support,the intestinal mucosa damage degree was gradually increased,and the content of adenosine triphosphate in intestinal mucosa reduced gradually.Conclusion The normothermic extracorporeal support for 1 h in DCD is beneficial for improving the viability of small bowel.However,the integrity of intestinal mucosa is destroyed gradually as extracorporeal supporting time over,which may be initiated by the activation of intestinal epithelial apoptosis.
