Analysis of non-physiological shear stress-induced red blood cell trauma across different clinical support conditions of the blood pump. Med Biol Eng Comput 2024:10.1007/s11517-024-03121-z. [PMID: 38802609 DOI: 10.1007/s11517-024-03121-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024]
Abstract
Systematic research into device-induced red blood cell (RBC) damage beyond hemolysis, including correlations between hemolysis and RBC-derived extracellular vesicles, remains limited. This study investigated non-physiological shear stress-induced RBC damage and changes in related biochemical indicators under two blood pump clinical support conditions. Pressure heads of 100 and 350 mmHg, numerical simulation methods, and two in vitro loops were utilized to analyze the shear stress and changes in RBC morphology, hemolysis, biochemistry, metabolism, and oxidative stress. The blood pump created higher shear stress in the 350-mmHg condition than in the 100-mmHg condition. With prolonged blood pump operation, plasma-free hemoglobin and cholesterol increased, whereas plasma glucose and nitric oxide decreased in both loops. Notably, plasma iron and triglyceride concentrations increased only in the 350-mmHg condition. The RBC count and morphology, plasma lactic dehydrogenase, and oxidative stress across loops did not differ significantly. Plasma extracellular vesicles, including RBC-derived microparticles, increased significantly at 600 min in both loops. Hemolysis correlated with plasma triglyceride, cholesterol, glucose, and nitric oxide levels. Shear stress, but not oxidative stress, was the main cause of RBC damage. Hemolysis alone inadequately reflects overall blood pump-induced RBC damage, suggesting the need for additional biomarkers for comprehensive assessments.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The optimal timing for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) circuit change-out is crucial for the successful management of patients with severe cardiopulmonary failure. This comprehensive review examines the various factors that influence the timing of oxygenator replacement in the ECMO circuit. By considering these factors, clinicians can make informed decisions to ensure timely and effective change-out, enhancing patient outcomes and optimizing the delivery of ECMO therapy. METHODOLOGY A thorough search of relevant studies on ECMO circuits and oxygenator change-out was conducted using multiple scholarly databases and relevant keywords. Studies published between 2017 and 2023 were included, resulting in 40 studies that met the inclusion criteria. DISCUSSION Thrombosis within the membrane oxygenator and its impact on dysfunction were identified as significant contributors, highlighting the importance of monitoring coagulation parameters and gas exchange. Several factors, including fibrinogen levels, pre and post-membrane blood gases, plasma-free hemoglobin, D-dimers, platelet function, flows and pressures, and anticoagulation strategy, were found to be important considerations when determining the need for an oxygenator or circuit change-out. The involvement of a multidisciplinary team and thorough preparation were also highlighted as crucial aspects of this process. CONCLUSION In conclusion, managing circuit change-outs in ECMO therapy requires considering factors such as fibrinogen levels, blood gases, plasma-free hemoglobin, D-dimers, platelet function, flows, pressures, and anticoagulation strategy. Monitoring these parameters allows for early detection of issues, timely interventions, and optimized ECMO therapy. Standardized protocols, personalized anticoagulation approaches, and non-invasive monitoring techniques can improve the safety and effectiveness of circuit change-outs. Further research and collaboration are needed to advance ECMO management and enhance patient outcomes.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in cases of severe respiratory failure refractory to medical management. Use of ECMO is increasing, along with new cannulation strategies including oxygenated right ventricular assist devices (oxy-RVADs). Multiple dual lumen cannulas are now available, which increase the potential for patient mobility and decrease the number of vascular access sites. However, dual lumen, single cannula flow can be limited by adequate inflow, requiring the need for an additional inflow cannula to meet patient demands. This cannula configuration may result in differential flows in the inflow and outflow limbs and altered flow dynamics, increasing the risk of intracannula thrombus. We describe a series of four patients treated with oxy-RVAD for COVID-19-associated respiratory failure complicated by dual lumen ProtekDuo intracannula thrombus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemolytic thrombosis has been associated with acellular hemoglobin released from damaged red blood cells during hemolysis. However, the precise molecular mechanism underlying acellular hemoglobin-induced thrombosis remains arguable. In this study, we examined the interaction between hemoglobin and the A1 domain of von Willebrand factor (VWF), which is a critical mediator of platelet activation. METHODS Previous studies have suggested that the interaction between hemoglobin and the A1 domain of VWF enhances VWF's hemostatic activity. We employed a multidisciplinary investigation to re-examine this interaction, and identified significant differences in binding affinity between the active and inactive forms of A1. RESULTS We found that hemoglobin binds more strongly to the active A1 than the inactive form. Using hydrogen‑deuterium exchange mass spectrometry, we identified the specific residues involved in this interaction, which are located on the α1-β2 and β3-α2 loops that are typically covered by the "autoinhibitory module" in the inactive A1. This observation provides a structural explanation for the differential binding affinity between the active and inactive forms of A1. We demonstrated that the binding of hemoglobin to A1 blocks the interaction between GPIbα and VWF, and inhibits VWF-mediated thrombosis in vivo. Furthermore, we found that administration of hemoglobin led to similar levels of thrombocytopenia and microthrombosis in both wildtype and VWF-deficient mice, indicating that the mechanism underlying acellular hemoglobin-induced thrombosis is VWF-independent. CONCLUSIONS These findings challenge the previous theory that hemoglobin-induced thrombosis occurs solely through binding with VWF, and provide evidence supporting a novel role for hemoglobin in hemolytic thrombosis.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an increasingly acceptable life-saving mechanical assistance system that provides cardiac and/or respiratory support for several reversible or treatable diseases. Despite important advances in technology and clinical management, bleeding remains a significant and common complication associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Some studies suggest that acquired von Willebrand syndrome (AVWS) is one of the etiologies of bleeding. It is caused by shear-induced deficiency of von Willebrand factor (VWF). VWF is an important glycoprotein for hemostasis that acts as a linker at sites of vascular injury for platelet adhesion and aggregation under high shear stress. AVWS can usually be diagnosed within 24 h after initiation of ECMO and is always reversible after explantation. Nonetheless, the main mechanism for the defect in the VWF multimers under ECMO support and the association between AVWS and bleeding complications remains unknown. In this review, we specifically discuss the loss of VWF caused by shear induction in the context of ECMO support as well as the current diagnostic and management strategies for AVWS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The centrifugal blood pump volute has a significant impact on its hemodynamic performance hemocompatibility. Previous studies about the effect of volute design features on the performance of blood pumps are relatively few. METHODS In the present study, the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method was utilized to evaluate the impact of volute design factors, including spiral start position, volute tongue radius, inlet height, size, shape and diffuser pipe angle on the hemolysis index and thrombogenic potential of the centrifugal blood pump. RESULTS Correlation analysis shows that flow losses affect the hemocompatibility of the blood pump by influencing shear stress and residence time. The closer the spiral start position of the volute, the better the hydraulic performance and hemocompatibility of the blood pump. Too large or too small volute inlet heights can worsen hydraulic performance and hemolysis, and higher volute inlet height can increase the thrombogenic potential. Small volute sizes exacerbate hemolysis and large volute sizes increase the thrombogenic risk, but volute size does not affect hydraulic performance. When the diffuser pipe is tangent to the base circle of the volute, the best hydraulic performance and hemolysis performance of the blood pump is achieved, but the thrombogenic potential is increased. The trapezoid volute has poor hydraulic performance and hemocompatibility. The round volute has the best hydraulic and hemolysis performance, but the thrombogenic potential is higher than that of the rectangle volute. CONCLUSION This study found that the hemolysis index shows a significant correlation with spiral start position, volute size, and diffuser pipe angle. Thrombogenic potential exhibits a good correlation with all the studied volute design features. The flow losses affect the hemocompatibility of the blood pump by influencing shear stress and residence time. The finding of this study can be used to guide the optimization of blood pump for improving the hemodynamic performance and hemocompatibility.

Abstract
PURPOSE Device-induced blood damage contributes the hemolysis, thrombosis and bleeding complications in patients supported with ventricular assist device (VAD). This study aims to use a multi-indicator method to understand how devices causes blood damage and identify the "hot spots" of blood trauma within VADs. METHODS Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods were chosen to investigate the hemodynamic features of five clinical VADs (Impella 5.0, UltraMag, CHVAD, HVAD, and HeartMate II) under the same clinical support condition (flow rate of 4.5L/min, pressure head around 75 mmHg). A comprehensive multi-indicator evaluation method including hemodynamic parameters, hemolysis model, thrombotic potential model and bleeding probability model was used to analyze blood damage and assess the hemodynamic performance and hemocompatibility of these VADs. RESULTS Simulation results show that shear stress from 50 Pa to 100 Pa plays a major role in blood damage in Impella 5.0, UltraMag and CHVAD, while blood damage in HVAD and HeartMate II is mainly caused by shear stress greater than 100 Pa. Residence time was not the main factor for blood damage in Impella 5.0, and also makes a limited contribution to blood trauma in UltraMag and CHVAD, while it takes a critical role in elevating thrombotic potential in HVAD and HeartMate II. The distribution of regions of high hemolysis risk and high bleeding probability was similar for all these VADs and partially overlapped for high thrombotic potential regions. For Impella 5.0, regions with high hemolysis and bleeding risk were found mainly in the blade tip clearance and diffuser domains, high thrombotic potential regions were almost absent. For UltraMag, regions with high hemolysis, bleeding and thrombosis potential were found in two corners of the inlet pipe, the secondary flow passage, and the impeller eye. For CHVAD, the high-risk regions for hemolysis, bleeding and thrombosis are mainly in the inner side of the secondary flow passage and the middle region of the impeller passage. The narrow hydrodynamic clearance and impeller passage had a high risk of hemolysis and bleeding, and the clearance between the rotor and guide cone and the hydrodynamic clearance had high thrombotic potential. For HeartMate II, regions of high hemolysis risk and bleeding probability were found in the near-wall region of the straightener, the blade tip clearance and the diffuser domain. The corners of the inlet and outlet pipe and the straightener and diffuser regions had high thrombotic potential. CONCLUSION The risk of hemolysis, bleeding and thrombosis for these five VADs, in increasing order, was Impella 5.0, UltraMag, CHVAD, HVAD, and HeartMate II. Flow losses caused by the rotor mechanical movement, chaotic flow and narrow clearances increase the blood damage for all these VADs. The multi-indicator analysis can comprehensively evaluate the VAD performance with improved assessment accuracy of CFD.

Predictors of thrombosis in children receiving therapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia: Results from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute ALL Consortium trial 05-001. Pediatr Blood Cancer 2022; 69:e29581.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Although thromboembolism (TE) is a serious complication in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), thromboprophylaxis is not commonly used due to the inherent bleeding risk in this population. Identifying prothrombotic risk factors will help target thromboprophylaxis to those at highest thrombotic risk. We aimed to define predictors and the impact of TE on ALL outcome in children (1-18 years) treated on the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute ALL 05-001 trial. METHODS Clinical and laboratory data including TE events were prospectively collected. PCR-based allelic discrimination assay identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) for prothrombin G20210A (rs1799963) and Factor V G1691A (rs6025). Univariate and multivariable competing risk regression models evaluated the effect of diagnostic clinical (age, sex, body mass index, ALL-immunophenotype, risk group) and laboratory variables (presenting leukocyte count, blood group, SNPs) on the cumulative incidence of TE. Cox regression modeling explored the impact of TE on survival. RESULTS Of 794 patients [median age 4.97 (range, 1.04-17.96) years; males 441], 100 developed TE; 25-month cumulative incidence 13.0% (95% CI, 10.7%-15.5%). Univariate analyses identified older age (≥10 years), presenting leucocyte count, T-ALL, high-risk ALL, and non-O blood group as risk factors. Age and non-O blood group were independent predictors of TE on multivariable regression; the blood group impact being most evident in patients 1-5 years of age (P = 0.011). TE did not impact survival. Induction TE was independently associated with induction failure (OR 6.45; 95% CI, 1.64-25.47; P = 0.008). CONCLUSION We recommend further evaluation of these risk factors and consideration of thromboprophylaxis for patients ≥10 years (especially those ≥15 years) when receiving asparaginase.

Abstract
Extracorporeal circulation (ECC) procedures, such as cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), take over the function of one or more organs, providing clinicians time to treat underlying pathophysiological conditions. ECMO and CPB carry significant mortality rates for patients, despite prior decades of research focused on the resulting failure of critical organs. Since the focus of these procedures is to support blood flow and provide oxygen-rich blood to tissues, a shift in research toward the effects of ECMO and CPB on the microcirculation is warranted. Along with provoking systemic responses, both procedures disrupt the integrity of red blood cells, causing release of hemoglobin (Hb) from excessive foreign surface contact and mechanical stresses. The effects of hemolysis are especially pronounced in the microcirculation, where plasma Hb leads to nitric oxide scavenging, oxidization, formation of reactive oxygen species, and inflammatory responses. A limited number of studies have investigated the implications of ECMO in the microcirculation, but more work is needed to minimize ECMO-induced reduction of microcirculatory perfusion and consequently oxygenation. The following review presents existing information on the implications of ECMO and CPB on microvascular function and proposes future studies to understand and leverage key mechanisms to improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hemolysis during pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is associated with increased risk for renal failure and mortality. OBJECTIVES We aim to describe risk factors for hemolysis in pediatric ECMO supported by centrifugal pumps. METHODS We conducted an analysis of retrospective data collected at an academic children's hospital from January 2017 to December 2019. MEASUREMENTS AND RESULTS Plasma-free hemoglobin (PFH) levels were measured daily, and hemolysis was defined as PFH>50 mg/dL. Of 46 ECMO runs over 528 ECMO days, hemolysis occurred in 23 (58%) patients over a total of 40 (8%) ECMO days. In multivariable logistic regression models, VA-ECMO (aOR=4.69, 95% CI: 1.01-21.83) and higher hemoglobin (aOR = 1.38, 95% CI: 1.06-1.81) were independently associated with hemolysis. There were also non-significant trends toward increased risk for hemolysis with higher rotational pump speed (aOR=2.39, 95% CI: 0.75-7.65), higher packed red blood cell transfusions (aOR=1.15, 95% CI: 0.99-1.34), and higher cryoprecipitate transfusions (aOR=2.01, 95% CI: 0.83-4.86). Isolated pump exchanges that were performed in 12 patients with hemolysis led to significant decreases in PFH levels within 24 h (89 vs 11 mg/dL, p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Hemolysis is common in pediatric ECMO using centrifugal pumps. Avoidance of high pump speeds and conservative administration of blood products may help to mitigate the risk for hemolysis. Furthermore, pump exchange may be an effective first-line treatment for hemolysis.

Abstract
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a procedure used to aid respiratory function in critical patients, involving extracorporeal circulation (ECC) of blood. There is a limited number of studies quantifying the hemodynamic effects of ECC procedures on the microcirculation. We sought to mimic veno-arterial-ECMO flow conditions by use of a scaled-down circuit primed with either lactate Ringer (LR) or 5% human serum albumin (HSA). The circuit was first tested using benchtop runs with blood, and subsequently used for in vivo experiments in Golden Syrian hamsters instrumented with a dorsal window chamber to allow for quantification of microvascular hemodynamics and functional capillary density (FCD). Results showed significant impairment in FCD, and a reduction of arteriolar and venular blood flow, with HSA providing significant higher blood flows and FCD compared with LR. Changes in hematocrit and RBC labeling after ECC reflected a shift in plasma volume, which may stem from a loss in intravascular oncotic pressure due to priming fluids. The distribution of hemoglobin oxygen saturation in the microvasculature showed a significant decrease in venules after ECC. In addition, major organs such as the kidney and heart showed increases in both inflammatory and damage markers. These results suggest that ECC impairs microvasculature function and promotes ischemia and hypoxia in the tissues, which can be vital to understanding comorbid clinical outcomes from ECC procedures such as acute kidney injury and multiorgan dysfunction.NEW & NOTEWORTHY ECC reduces microvascular perfusion, with no full recovery 24 h after ECC. HSA performed better as compared with LR in terms of FCD and venule flow, as well as venule oxygen saturation. Increases in inflammatory and damage markers in key organs were observed within all organs analyzed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Few studies have evaluated the impact of ABO blood group on the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in pediatric populations. We performed a systematic review to determine whether children (0 to 18 y old) with non-O blood group have an increased risk of developing VTE compared with those with O blood group. METHODS We searched Ovid Medline, Embase, PubMed, Cochrane, Web of Science, and CINAHL online databases from inception to December 2018 to find studies involving blood grouping and VTE. Data was collected regarding patients' underlying diseases, sex, age, ABO blood group, and VTE frequency. A meta-analysis using the random effect model was performed, and heterogeneity was assessed with the I2 value. RESULTS Among 1280 unique articles identified, 7 studies (3 conference abstracts, 4 peer-reviewed journal articles) involving 609 VTE cases were included in the systematic review. Six studies were eligible for a meta-analysis; all involved patients with cancer. Blood group O was protective against VTE (odds ratio, 0.56; 95% confidence interval, 0.43-0.79). Findings were similar across sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review has documented that O blood group is protective against new-onset VTE in children with cancer. Larger studies across different ethnic backgrounds and disease categories are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
The ultimate goals of cardiovascular physiology are to ensure adequate end-organ perfusion to satisfy the local metabolic demand, to maintain homeostasis and achieve 'milieu intérieur'. Cardiogenic shock is a state of pump failure which results in tissue hypoperfusion and its associated complications. There are a wide variety of causes which lead to this deranged physiology, and one such important and common scenario is the post-cardiotomy state which is encountered in cardiac surgical units. Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is an important modality of managing post-cardiotomy cardiogenic shock with variable outcomes which would otherwise be universally fatal. VA-ECMO is considered as a double-edged sword with the advantages of luxurious perfusion while providing an avenue for the failing heart to recover, but with the problems of anticoagulation, inflammatory and adverse systemic effects. Optimal outcomes after VA-ECMO are heavily reliant on a multitude of factors and require a multi-disciplinary team to handle them. This article aims to provide an insight into the pathophysiology of VA-ECMO, cannulation techniques, commonly encountered problems, monitoring, weaning strategies and ethical considerations along with a literature review of current evidence-based practices.

Abstract
Venovenous and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) remains a crucial lifesaving therapy for critically ill neonates with severe cardiorespiratory failure. Both the roller pump as well as the centrifugal pump are safe and efficient systems, and some red blood cell breakdown and hemolysis occurs in all ECMO systems. The roller pump functions by gravity whereas the centrifugal pump promotes the flow of blood by a magnetically driven spinning rotor to generate negative pressure. Extracorporeal Life Support Organization data indicate a significant increase in intravascular hemolysis in neonatal and pediatric patients receiving ECMO when the centrifugal pump is used compared with its use in adults. Risk factors for developing hemolysis during ECMO are small cannula size, high negative inlet pressure in the pump head, and thrombosis in the pump head and oxygenator. Excessive red blood cell breakdown and release of plasma free hemoglobin (pfHb) saturate physiologic neutralizing mechanisms such as haptoglobin and hemopexin. The increase in pro-oxidant and proinflammatory pfHb levels causes endothelial dysfunction in a dose-dependent manner. Hemolysis also increases the risk of in-hospital morbidities such as renal injury, direct hyperbilirubinemia, and thrombosis without an increase in mortality in patients receiving ECMO. Hemolysis is an unavoidable side effect of current ECMO technology and there are no approved treatments or treatment guidelines for the neonatal population. Therefore, increased vigilance, recognition of the severity of the hemolytic process, and prompt management are essential to prevent severe endothelial injury leading to proinflammatory and prothrombotic events.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation is a treatment for Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn with high mortality. HYPOTHESIS the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit results in inflammatory responses that mitigate against successful weaning. DESIGN Single-center prospective observational feasibility study. SETTING PICU. PATIENTS Twenty-four neonates requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support for Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension of the Newborn. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The reference outcome was death or more than 7 days of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. Other outcomes included serial measures of plasma-free hemoglobin and markers of its metabolism, leucocyte, platelet and endothelial activation, and biomarkers of inflammation. Of 24 participants recruited between February 2016 and June 2017, 10 died or required prolonged extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support. These patients were sicker at baseline with higher levels of plasma-free hemoglobin within 12 hours of cannulation (geometric mean ratio, 1.92; 95% CIs, 1.00-3.67; p = 0.050) but not thereafter, versus those requiring less than 7 days extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Serum haptoglobin concentrations were significantly elevated in both groups. Patients who died or required prolonged extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support demonstrated elevated levels of platelet-leucocyte aggregation, but decreased concentrations of mediators of the inflammatory response: interleukin-8, C-reactive protein, and tumor necrosis factor α. CONCLUSIONS Clinical status at baseline and not levels of plasma-free hemoglobin or the systemic inflammatory response may determine the requirement for prolonged extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support in neonates.

Abstract
Oxidative stress is a frequent condition in critically ill patients, especially if exposed to extracorporeal circulation, and it is associated with worse outcomes and increased mortality. The inflammation triggered by the contact of blood with a non-endogenous surface, the use of high volumes of packed red blood cells and platelets transfusion, the risk of hyperoxia and the impairment of antioxidation systems contribute to the increase of reactive oxygen species and the imbalance of the redox system. This is responsible for the increased production of superoxide anion, hydrogen peroxide, hydroxyl radicals, and peroxynitrite resulting in increased lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, and DNA damage. The understanding of the pathophysiologic mechanisms leading to redox imbalance would pave the way for the future development of preventive approaches. This review provides an overview of the clinical impact of the oxidative stress during neonatal extracorporeal support and concludes with a brief perspective on the current antioxidant strategies, with the aim to focus on the potential oxidative stress-mediated cell damage that has been implicated in both short and long-term outcomes.
