Abstract:
Objective To approach the effect of protective mechanical ventilation on acute lung injury after orthotopic liver transplantation, by observing changes of plasma markers of lung injury and inflammatory mediators.Methods Sixty patients scheduled for liver transplantation under general anesthesia, 42 males and 18 females, aged 21-62 years, weighing 43-80 kg, ASA physical status Ⅱ-Ⅳ, were randomly divided into 2 groups: protective mechanical ventilation group (group P) and unprotective mechanical ventilation group (group U).Pulmonary artery blood for plasma markers of lung injury and inflammatory mediators were collected at the following time points: before operation (T1), 3 hours after mechanical ventilation (T2), 2 hours (T3) and 4 hours in neohepatic stage (T4).These mediators included clara cell secretory protein (CC16), surfactant proteins (SP-D), soluble receptor for advanced glycation end-products (sRAGE), TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8.Moreover, blood gas results were recorded at these 7 time points: T1-T4, 2 hours after operation (T5), before tracheal extubation (T6) and 2 days after operation (T7).The postoperative awakening time, tracheal extubation time, ICU stay time and the incidence of ALI were recorded.Results Compared with T1, plasma level of CC16 in the two groups increased at T2 and T3 (P<0.05 or P<0.01), however, plasma level of SP-D, sRAGE, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 did not increase until T3 (P<0.01).Moreover, plasma level of sRAGE, TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 at T4 were higher than those at T1 (P<0.05 or P<0.01).Compared with T1, OIs in the two groups increased at T2, T5 and T6 (P<0.05 or P<0.01), while decreased at T4 in group P (P<0.01) and at T3 and T4 in group U (P<0.01).In group P, patients showed a lower plasma level of CC16 at T2 and T3 (P<0.05 or P<0.01), a higher OI at T3 (P<0.05) and an earlier tracheal extubation after operation [(8.9±3.2) h vs (9.3±2.8) h, P<0.05] compared with group U.There was no significant difference of acute lung injury incidence between the two groups after operation, which was 5(16.6%) and 7 (23.3%), respectively.Conclusion Protective mechanical ventilation may promote oxygenation index, and shorten tracheal extubation time, thus protect lung function of patients in liver transplantation to some extend.
