Metabolism management plays an essential role in extracorporeal technologies. There are different metabolic management devices integrated to extracorporeal devices; the most commonly used and accepted metabolic target in adult patients is indexed oxygen delivery (280 mL/min/m2) and cardiac index (2.4 L/min/m2), which can be managed independently or according to other metabolic parameters. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a temporary form of life support providing a prolonged biventricular circulatory and pulmonary support for patients experiencing both pulmonary and cardiac failure unresponsive to conventional therapy. The goal-directed perfusion initiative during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) reduced the incidence of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery. On the basis of the available literature, the identified goals to achieve during CPB include maintenance of oxygen delivery > 300 mL O2/min/m2 and reduction in vasopressor use. ECMO and CPB are conceptually similar but differ in many aspects and finality; in particular, they differ in the scientific evidence for metabolic management nadirs. As for CPB, predictive target parameters have been found and consolidated, particularly in terms of acute renal injury and the prevention of anaerobic metabolism, while for ECMO management, a blurred path remains. In this context, we review the strategies for optimal goal-directed therapy during CPB and ECMO, trying to transfer the knowledge and experience from daily cardiac surgery to veno-arterial ECMO.

Objective: to assess the relationship between oxygen delivery during cardiopulmonary bypass and the incidende of acute kidney injury in the immediate postoperative period of patients undergoing cardiac surgery, as well as to identify possible risk factors. Methods: A retrospective observational study of patients undergoing cardiac surgery scheduled between May 2016 and February 2018 was carried out in which the M-M4 System was used for online blood gases. Patients with preoperative diagnosis of chronic renal failure were excluded. For the oxigen delivery, the average of all M4 records was made. Results: 133 patients (35.3% women) with a mean age of 64.9 ± 10.9 years were studied. The incidence of acute kidney injury was 18.8% (AKI I: 12%; AKI II: 3%; AKI III: 3.8%). There was no correlation between acute kidney injury and O2 delivery (251 ± 43 vs 247 ± 52, ns), if there was a difference when patients needed renal replacement therapy (251 ± 43 vs 198 ± 18, p = 0.04). There was a significant increase risk in diabetes; HTA; pulmonary arterial hypertension; chronic atrial fibrilation; red blood cell concentrate and blood products administration in the operating room; redo for bleeding; high lactic acid and glycemia post cardiopulmonary bypass; prolonged pump and ischemia times; and combined surgery. Conclusions: There was no direct relationship between O2 delivery and acute kidney injury, although there was a significantly lower O2 delivery in patients who needed postoperative renal replacement therapy.

Abstract OBJECTIVES Older patients have a higher cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) related mortality. Low oxygen delivery (DO2) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a risk factor for CSA-AKI, but critical DO2 thresholds for older patients are unknown. This study investigated critical DO2 thresholds for CSA-AKI in patients ≥70 years undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery. METHODS Patients were enrolled from July 2015 until August 2017. CPB data from 432 patients were collected, and DO2 values were calculated per minute. The primary outcome was CSA-AKI. The association between DO2 and CSA-AKI was analysed with multivariable regression analysis. Multiple DO2 thresholds were analysed. The association between CSA-AKI and the area below the DO2 thresholds (DO2 deficit) was evaluated, as was the association between frailty and CSA-AKI. RESULTS CSA-AKI occurred in 63 (14.6%) patients. Mean and nadir (lowest) DO2 values were lower in patients with CSA-AKI (283 vs 312 ml/min/m2; P-value <0.001 and 238 vs 270 ml/min/m2; P-value <0.001, respectively). The adjusted relative risk for CSA-AKI was 1.006 [99% confidence interval (CI) 1.001–1.012] per ml/min/m2 nadir DO2 decrease. The critical DO2 threshold was 270 ml/min/m2 [adjusted relative risk 2.06 (99% CI 1.33–2.80)]. The DO2 deficit below 270 ml/min/m2 was associated with CSA-AKI [adjusted relative risk 2.84 (99% CI 1.87–3.81)]. No association between frailty and CSA-AKI was found (P = 0.82). CONCLUSIONS Low DO2 increased the risk for CSA-AKI in older patients who had cardiac surgery. A critical DO2 threshold of 270 ml/min/m2 was applicable for frail and non-frail patients. The efficacy of a DO2 >270 ml/min/m2 to reduce CSA-AKI in older patients needs further evaluation.

<strong>Background:</strong> Acute kidney injury is a common complication of cardiac surgery that increases morbidity and mortality. The aim of the present study is to analyze the association of preoperative serum albumin levels with acute kidney injury and the requirement of renal replacement therapy after isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG).<br /><strong>Methods:</strong> We retrospectively reviewed the prospectively collected data of 530 adult patients who underwent isolated CABG surgery with normal renal function. The perioperative clinical data of the patients included demographic data, laboratory data, length of stay, in-hospital complications and mortality. The patient population was divided into two groups: group I patients with preoperative serum albumin levels &lt;3.5 mg/dL; and group II pateints with preoperative serum albumin levels ≥3.5 mg/dL.<br /><strong>Results:</strong> There were 413 patients in group I and 117 patients in group II. Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) occured in 33 patients (28.2%) in group I and in 79 patients (19.1%) in group II. Renal replacement therapy was required in 17 patients (3.2%) (8 patients from group I; 9 patients from group II; P = .018). 30-day mortality occurred in 18 patients (3.4%) (10 patients from group I; 8 patients from group II; P = .037). Fourteen of these patients required renal replacement therapy. Logistic regression analysis revealing the presence of lower serum albumin levels preoperatively was shown to be associated with increased incidence of postoperative AKI (OR: 1.661; 95% CI: 1.037-2.661; <br />P = .035). Logistic regression analysis also revealed that DM (OR: 3.325; 95% CI: 2.162-5.114; P = .000) was another independent risk factor for AKI after isolated CABG. <br /><strong>Conclusion:</strong> Low preoperative serum albumin levels result in severe acute kidney injury and increase the rate of renal replacement therapy and mortality after isolated CABG.
