Summary
This summary is machine-generated.Off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery can cause early endothelial glycocalyx layer (EGL) shedding, increasing the risk of systemic inflammation response syndrome (SIRS). Sevoflurane anesthesia did not show a significant advantage over propofol in preserving EGL during OPCABG.
Area Of Science
- Cardiovascular Surgery
- Anesthesiology
- Inflammation Biology
Background
- Off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (OPCABG) surgery is associated with a high incidence of postoperative systemic inflammation response syndrome (SIRS).
- Perioperative disruption of the endothelial glycocalyx layer (EGL) is a potential predisposing factor for SIRS after OPCABG.
- This study investigates the timing of EGL shedding during OPCABG and its impact on postoperative SIRS, comparing sevoflurane and propofol anesthesia.
Purpose Of The Study
- To determine if EGL shedding occurs earlier during OPCABG and influences postoperative SIRS.
- To compare the EGL-preserving effects of sevoflurane versus propofol anesthesia during OPCABG.
- To analyze the correlation between EGL markers, inflammatory markers, and clinical outcomes.
Main Methods
- A randomized trial involving 50 patients undergoing OPCABG, assigned to sevoflurane-sufentanil or propofol-sufentanil anesthesia.
- Measurement of plasma syndecan-1, heparan sulfate (HS), atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), IL-6, and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) at six time points.
- Assessment of SIRS criteria and Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) scores.
Main Results
- No significant differences in syndecan-1, HS, IL-6, SIRS criteria, or SOFA scores were observed between the sevoflurane and propofol groups.
- Pooled analysis revealed significant increases in plasma syndecan-1 and IL-6 over time.
- Syndecan-1 levels correlated with graft anastomosis duration, ANP, and IL-6; IL-6 and SOFA scores correlated with SIRS, ICU days, and occurrence of SIRS.
Conclusions
- Early EGL shedding during OPCABG, particularly during graft anastomosis, significantly impacts postoperative SIRS and SOFA scores.
- Sevoflurane anesthesia did not demonstrate a clinical advantage in preserving the EGL compared to propofol.
- The findings highlight the role of EGL integrity in mitigating inflammatory responses following OPCABG.

The immune system's inflammatory response destroys the invading pathogen, permitting the tissue to heal. The changes during the cellular and vascular stages allow exudate formation at the site of inflammation. The inflammatory exudate released from the wound has high protein content and a specific gravity above 1.020.
The typical wound exudate is odorless, transparent, straw-colored, thin, and watery. Exudate, however, can differ depending on the state of wound healing. Likewise, the...

The glycocalyx is a carbohydrate-rich, fuzzy-appearing layer on the outer surface of the cell membrane. It is highly hydrophilic, because of this it attracts large amounts of water to the cell's surface. This aids the cell's interaction with the watery environment and also helps it to obtain substances dissolved in the water. It is also important for cell identification, self/non-self determination, and embryonic development and is used in cell-to-cell attachments to form tissues.
