• Controversy exists over the optimal degree of hypothermia during surgery of aortic arch with circulatory arrest

Background
• Controversy exists over the optimal degree of hypothermia during surgery of aortic arch with circulatory arrest
4
• Greater suppression of metabolic activity
• May offer better organ
protection, particularly for the brain and spinal cord which are highly susceptible to hypoxic injury
• May provide adequate visceral and cerebral protection in conjunction with regional perfusion to the brain during systemic arrest
• Potentially mitigates hypothermia-related complications

Background
5
• Coagulopathic bleeding during aortic arch surgery– Multifactorial
• Hypothermia-related platelet dysfunction• Coagulation factor consumption during prolonged CPB
• Theoretically, milder degrees of hypothermia may reduce coagulopathy and bleeding-related complications– Lack of empirical data to support this claim
![Page 6: Does Moderate Hypothermia Really Carry Less Bleeding Risk than Deep Hypothermia For Circulatory Arrest? A Propensity-Matched Comparison in Hemiarch Replacement](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5697bf761a28abf838c810d3/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Objective
6
• To determine whether moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest (MHCA) compared to deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) reduced the risk of bleeding and the blood product transfusion in patients undergoing aortic hemiarch replacement
![Page 7: Does Moderate Hypothermia Really Carry Less Bleeding Risk than Deep Hypothermia For Circulatory Arrest? A Propensity-Matched Comparison in Hemiarch Replacement](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062314/5697bf761a28abf838c810d3/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Methods
• Duke University Medical Center Aortic Surgery Database– Prospectively maintained– Contains >1500 procedures from 2005-present
• Study population– Patients who underwent replacement of aortic root or
supracoronary ascending aorta (+/- valve) with concomitant hemiarch replacement from 7/2005 to 8/2014

Summary
• MHCA compared to DHCA may have led to a slight statistical decrease in perioperative bleeding (decreased cell saver transfusion, post-operative output)
• However, this did not translate to clinically apparent benefit such as reduced rate of transfusion or reoperation for bleeding
• Mortality and morbidity did not appear to differ between patients managed with MHCA vs. DHCA

Limitations
• Potential for unobserved confounding
• Non-standardization of transfusion and surgical practice over the entire course of the study– Institution of transfusion (~2010) algorithm may account for
increased cryoprecipitate and rFVIIa use in MHCA patients
• Lack of functional coagulation assessments

Conclusions
• MHCA compared to DHCA did not appear to lead to a clinically significant reduction in bleeding or blood product transfusion – This draws into question whether reduced severity of bleeding
should be used to justify use of MHCA over DHCA
• Comparable mortality and morbidity between the DHCA and MHCA confirms clinical equipoise and supports the need for prospective study to better elucidate the optimal degree of hypothermia during aortic reconstruction with circulatory arrest
