Single-Dose del Nido Cardioplegia Compared With Standard Cardioplegia During Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting at a Veterans Affairs Hospital

© 2021 by the Texas Heart® Institute, Houston..

Del Nido cardioplegic solution (DNC), used chiefly in pediatric patients, rapidly induces prolonged cardiac arrest during cardiac surgery. To determine whether surgical outcomes after coronary artery bypass grafting in a United States military veteran population differed when DNC was used instead of our standard Plegisol cardioplegia, we retrospectively reviewed 155 consecutive operations performed from July 2016 through June 2017. Del Nido cardioplegia was used to induce cardiac arrest in 70 patients, and Plegisol in 85. Compared with the Plegisol group, the DNC group had a shorter mean cardiopulmonary bypass time (96.8 vs 117 min; P <0.01) and aortic cross-clamp time (63.9 vs 71.7 min; P=0.02). On multiple linear regression, DNC use and number of bypasses performed were predictors of cardiopulmonary bypass time. The groups were similar in median number of bypasses performed, median time to extubation, intensive care unit stay, and total postoperative stay; however, the DNC group had a shorter mean operating room time (285.8 vs 364.5 min; P <0.01). Del Nido cardioplegia, number of bypasses, cardiopulmonary bypass time, and red blood cell transfusion were predictors of operating room time. Outcomes in the groups were similar for 30- and 180-day death, stroke, renal failure, ventilation time >48 hours, atrial fibrillation, tracheostomy, reintubation, and mechanical circulatory support. We conclude that single-dose DNC is safe, effective, and cost-effective for achieving cardiac arrest in U.S. veteran populations.
