Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine 2008;17(11):1152-1157
Objective To investigate the effects of different cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) qualifies under Q-CPR control on hemodynamics and aerobic metabolism in pigs with cardiac arrest. Method After eighteen pigs (mass [ (30+ 1) kg] were anesthetized,a Swan-Ganz catheter was positioned through the right femoral vein and linked with a continuous cardiac output monitor. An electrode cable was positioned into right ventricle through left internal jugular vein. Then different catheters were positioned in the arteriae aorta, carotid artery and fight atrium successively. Ventricular fibrillation (VF) was induced by a programmed electrical stimulation equipment. All animals underwent 4 minutes of untreated VF and then were randomly assigned to either standard CPR or nonstandard CPR. A Philips HeartStart MRx Monitor/Defibrillator was used to ensure qualifies of chest compression (e.g., depth, rate and chest recovery) by Q-CPR technology. Pigs in standard CPR group were treated with standard compression with a compression rate of 100 beat/min, a compression-ventilation ratio of 30:2, and a depth of with 38~51 mm with 100% decompression. Pigs in nonstmdard CPR group were treated with nonstandard compression with a depth of 60%~70% of standard depth with unsatisfactory decompression. Defibrillations were administered after 9 minutes of compressions and vetilations. Cardiac output (CO), mean aortic pressure (MAP) and coronary perfusion pressure (CPP) were recorded at different periods. Oxygen delivery (DO2) and oxygen consumption (VO2) were calculated according to blood gas analysis. At last,number of the survivals was recorded.Data were calculated by SPSS 11.5 statistics software. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-Square Test and two independent samples t testing. Results The return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) achievement ratio with nonstandard CPR was 28.6% and with standard CPR was significantly greater (90.9%, P=0.013).Hemodynamics (e. g., CPP, CO and MAP) and systemic oxygenation with standard CPR were much better. Conclusions In this animal model of cardiac arresr in pigs, standard CPR could improve hemodynarmics by increasing CPP and CO. And standard CPR could beneficial aerobic metabolism by increasing DO2 and VO2. As a result, ROSC achievement ratio of pigs with standard CPR was much greater.

Objective To study the characteristics of molecular genetics concerning Chinese mitochondr ial encephalomyopathy,lactic acidosis and stroke-like episodes (MELAS). Methods A3243G and T3271C point mutations in the mtDNA of muscle and (or) blood cells were investigated in 9 patients with MELAS and some o f their maternal relatives from 7 families by using PCR-RFLP. Furthermore,mut ant mtDNA in the sample harboring mutation was quantitatively analysed. Results The mtDN A A3243G point mutation was unanimously identified in tissues of all patients an d 1 of their relatives. However,the T3271C point mutation was identi f ied in none of series in our study. The proportion of mtDNA A3243G was 46.8%~ 61. 0% in muscle (4 cases) as well as 26.8%~50.3% in blood (9 cases). In the 3 p atie nts with muscles and blood cells available,their mutant mtDNA proportion in mus cle is consistently higher than in blood cells. The study of leukocytes of some maternal relatives from 6 families showed that,while only 1 proband had a siste r harboring A3243G mutation and none of the mothers of another 3 probands or sib lings of the other 2 probands had the point mutation. However,the sons of 2 pr o bands had not only phenotype of MELAS,but also mtDNA A3243G point mutation in t heir blood. Conclusion mtDNA A3243G mutation highly exists in the series with M E LAS syndrome in our study and can be detected in various tissues,which is consi stent with reports abroad. However,most of our cases are sporadic rather than m aternal inherited. It is presumedly caused by a de novo mutation. Whether i t is due to ethnic difference or sporadic event needs to be investigated further.
