Abstract

The study was aimed at detection of the factors which determine the amount of 7% sodium hydrocarbonate (SHC) needed to correct metabolic acidosis in patients subjected to repair surgery on the aorta involving long arrest of circulation under conditions of deep hypothermia. The total dose of 7% SHC solution was calculated as the sum of volumes of this solution needed to neutralize the tissue non-oxidized metabolites and BE. Accumulation of acid metabolites in tissues is caused by ineffective compensation of energy expenditure of the organism during warming of a patient after circulatory arrest and deep hypothermia. After reperfusion injury to tissues the release of these metabolites into the blood and further neutralization are appreciably slower during such operations than during other cardiovascular bypass interventions. That is why the routine method for calculating the dose of 7% SHC solution for correcting metabolic acidosis is not adequate in cases with abnormal body temperature. Estimation of the dose with consideration for venous blood temperature and pO2 is more correct. An algorithm of calculation is proposed.

Aortic Aneurysm

An aortic aneurysm is the weakening and bulging of the blood vessel wall in the aorta. This causes dilatation of the aorta, which is usually asymptomatic but carries the risk of rupture and hemorrhage. Find the latest research on aortic aneurysms here.

Cardiac Aneurysm

Aneurysm refers to a bulge of the wall or lining of a vessel commonly occurring in the blood vessels at the base of the septum or within the aorta. In the heart, it usually arises from a patch of weakened tissue in a ventricular wall, which swells into a bubble filled with blood. Discover the latest research on cardiac aneurysm here.
