Objective: To analyze the risk factors on acute respiratory dysfunction caused death in patients after type A aortic dissection surgery.
Methods: A total of 223 patients who received aorta replacement surgery in our hospital from 2010-01 to 2012-12 were retrospectively studied. 80 patients suffered from post-operative acute respiratory dysfunction including 61 male and 19 female with the mean age of (49.2 ± 11.6) years. Those patients were divided into 2 groups as Death group, n=18 and Survival group, n=62. We analyzed the most relevant risk factors for death, such as gender, age, histories of smoking, diabetes, hypertension, Marfan syndrome;pre-operative acute or chronic dissection, hypoxemia, mal-perfusion, LVEDD and LVEF;CPB time, aortic-clamping time;post-operative ICU retention time, mechanical ventilation time, permanent neurologic dysfunction, pulmonary infection, MACE, renal failure, hypohepatia, septicemia and wound mal-healing, et al.
Results: The early post-operative (< 3 days) respiratory dysfunction rate was 35.8% and the mortality was 22.5%(18/80). The relevant risk factors of death included female gender (P=0.019), haemorrhage (P<0.01), mechanical ventilation time (P=0.011), permanent neurologic dysfunction (P=0.013), pulmonary infection (P=0.001), MACE (P=0.022), renal failure (P<0.01), hypohepatia (P<0.01) and septicemia (P=0.001). Female gender and renal failure were the independent risk factors for respiratory dysfunction caused death in patients after type A aortic dissection surgery.
Conclusion: The occurrence and mortality were high in patients after type A aortic dissection surgery especially in those with female gender and post-operative renal failure.
