Abstract:
Objectives: To evaluate the clinical application of emergency extracorporeal circulation(ECC) in cardiac surgery. Methods: Emergency open heart surgery was performed in 24 ECC cases. Warm blood left heart bypass was performed in 3, hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass in 21. The vena cava-aorta extracorporeal circulation was built in 16,vena cava-femoral in 4, left atrium-femoral in 3 and femoro-femoral in 1. Retrograde or antegrade perfusion through aortic root were applied to protect the heart. Results: There were 2 hospital deaths, the hospital mortality rate was 8.3%. The cardiopulmonary bypass was established in 10 to 15 minutes with an average duration of cardiopulmonary bypass of 78~132 minutes. Twenty-two patients were discharged from the hospital and have resumed a normal and active life style. Conclusions: Emergency cardiopulmonary bypass support is a powerful resuscitative tool that may stabilize the condition of patients with cardiogenic shock and mutiorgan dysfunction to allow for definitive intervention. The femoro-femoral cannulation is the first choice for emergency. The time to establish extracorporeal circulation should be as short as possible.
