Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the protective effect of inhaled nitric oxide(NO) on newborn piglets with asphyxia-induced myocardial impairment. Methods Twenty-nine newborn piglets were divided into three groups: (1)control group(CON,n =8); (2)asphyxia without NO inhaled group(ASP,n =11); (3)asphyxia with NO inhaled group (INO,n =10). In both ASP and INO group,asphyxia was induced by clamping the inhalation tube for 10min. After cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR),both groups were mechanically ventilated with 35% of O 2 for 6 hrs,but 10ppm of nitric oxide was applied additionally to INO group. Mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) was monitored continuously. Serum creatine kinase,MB (CK-MB),and cardiac troponin T (cTnT) were measured at 6h after CPR. Cardiac functions were evaluated at 6h after CPR by echocardiography including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF),right ventricular ejection fraction (RVEF),ratio of peak E velocity and peak A velocity of mitrial flow and tricuspid flow (ME/A and TE/A),ratio of peak e velocity and velocity of mitral annulus motion and tricuspid annulus motion (Me/a and Te/a). The CON group was examined correspondingly. The myocardial histopathologic damage score (MHDS) was used to evaluate the severity of myocardial impairment. Results During 1 h to 6 h after CPR,INO group displayed a lower level of mPAP (14?6)～(12?4) mm Hg when compared with ASP group(23?5)～(19?3) mm Hg ( P
