Abstract
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a common technique in cardiac surgery but is associated with acute kidney injury (AKI), which carries considerable morbidity and mortality. In this review, we explore the range and definition of CPB-associated AKI and discuss the possible impact of different disease recognition methods on research outcomes. Furthermore, we introduce the specialized equipment and procedural intricacies associated with CPB surgeries. Based on recent research, we discuss the potential pathogenesis of AKI that may result from CPB, including compromised perfusion and oxygenation, inflammatory activation, oxidative stress, coagulopathy, hemolysis, and endothelial damage. Finally, we explore current interventions aimed at preventing and attenuating renal impairment related to CPB, and presenting these measures from three perspectives: (1) avoiding CPB to eliminate the fundamental impact on renal function; (2) optimizing CPB by adjusting equipment parameters, optimizing surgical procedures, or using improved materials to mitigate kidney damage; (3) employing pharmacological or interventional measures targeting pathogenic factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Quantify the relationship between perioperative anaerobic lactate production, microcirculatory blood flow, and mitochondrial respiration in patients after cardiovascular surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. DESIGN Serial measurements of lactate-pyruvate ratio (LPR), microcirculatory blood flow, plasma tricarboxylic acid cycle cycle intermediates, and mitochondrial respiration were compared between patients with a normal peak lactate (≤ 2 mmol/L) and a high peak lactate (≥ 4 mmol/L) in the first 6 hours after surgery. Regression analysis was performed to quantify the relationship between clinically relevant hemodynamic variables, lactate, LPR, and microcirculatory blood flow. SETTING This was a single-center, prospective observational study conducted in an academic cardiovascular ICU. PATIENTS One hundred thirty-two patients undergoing elective cardiovascular surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Patients with a high postoperative lactate were found to have a higher LPR compared with patients with a normal postoperative lactate (14.4 ± 2.5 vs. 11.7 ± 3.4; p = 0.005). Linear regression analysis found a significant, negative relationship between LPR and microcirculatory flow index (r = -0.225; β = -0.037; p = 0.001 and proportion of perfused vessels: r = -0.17; β = -0.468; p = 0.009). There was not a significant relationship between absolute plasma lactate and microcirculation variables. Last, mitochondrial complex I and complex II oxidative phosphorylation were reduced in patients with high postoperative lactate levels compared with patients with normal lactate (22.6 ± 6.2 vs. 14.5 ± 7.4 pmol O2/s/106 cells; p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS Increased anaerobic lactate production, estimated by LPR, has a negative relationship with microcirculatory blood flow after cardiovascular surgery. This relationship does not persist when measuring lactate alone. In addition, decreased mitochondrial respiration is associated with increased lactate after cardiovascular surgery. These findings suggest that high lactate levels after cardiovascular surgery, even in the setting of normal hemodynamics, are not simply a type B phenomenon as previously suggested.

Abstract
Chloride, often overshadowed in electrolyte management, emerges as a crucial player in the physiological intricacies of critically ill patients. This comprehensive review explores the multifaceted aspects of chloride, ranging from its significance in cellular homeostasis to the consequences of dysregulation in critically ill patients. The pathophysiology of hyperchloremia and hypochloremia is dissected, highlighting their intricate impact on acid-base balance, renal function, and cardiovascular stability. Clinical assessment strategies, including laboratory measurements and integration with other electrolytes, lay the foundation for targeted interventions. Consequences of dysregulated chloride levels underscore the need for meticulous management, leading to an exploration of emerging therapies and interventions. Fluid resuscitation protocols, the choice between crystalloids and colloids, the role of balanced solutions, and individualized patient approaches comprise the core strategies in chloride management. Practical considerations, such as monitoring and surveillance, overcoming implementation challenges, and embracing a multidisciplinary approach, are pivotal in translating theoretical knowledge into effective clinical practice. As we envision the future, potential impacts on critical care guidelines prompt reflections on integrating novel therapies, individualized approaches, and continuous monitoring practices. In conclusion, this review synthesizes current knowledge, addresses practical considerations, and envisions future directions in chloride management for critically ill patients. By embracing a holistic understanding, clinicians can navigate the complexities of chloride balance, optimize patient outcomes, and contribute to the evolving landscape of critical care medicine.

Abstract
Background The relationship between hyperlactatemia and prognosis after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is controversial, and some studies ignore the presence of lactic acidosis in patients with severe hyperlactacemia. This study explored the association between lactic acidosis (LA) and the occurrence of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) after cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods This study was a post hoc analysis of patients who underwent cardiac surgery between February 2017 and August 2018 and participated in a prospective study at Taizhou Hospital. The data were collected at: ICU admission (H0), and 4, 8, 12, 24, and 48 h after admission. Blood lactate levels gradually increased after CPB, peaking at H8 and then gradually decreasing. The patients were grouped as LA, hyperlactatemia (HL), and normal control (NC) based on blood test results 8 h after ICU admission. Basic preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative conditions were compared between the three groups, as well as postoperative perfusion and oxygen metabolism indexes. Results There were 22 (19%), 73 (64%), and 19 (17%) patients in the LA, HL, and NC groups, respectively. APACHE II (24h) and SOFA (24h) scores were the highest in the LA group (P < 0.05). ICU stay duration was the longest for the LA group (48.5 (42.5, 50) h), compared with the HL (27 (22, 48) h) and NC (27 (25, 46) h) groups (P = 0.012). The LA group had the highest incidence of MODS (36%), compared with the HL (14%) and NC (5%) groups (P = 0.015). In the LA group, the oxygen extraction ratio (O2ER) was lower (21.5 (17.05, 32.8)%) than in the HL (31.3 (24.8, 37.6)%) and the NC group (31.3 (29.0, 35.4) %) (P = 0.018). In the univariable analyses, patient age (OR = 1.054, 95% CI [1.003-1.109], P = 0.038), the LA group (vs. the NC group, (OR = 10.286, 95% CI [1.148-92.185], P = 0.037), and ΔPCO2 at H8 (OR = 1.197, 95% CI [1.022-1.401], P = 0.025) were risk factor of MODS after CPB. Conclusions We speculated that there was correlation between lactic acidosis and MODS after CPB. In addition, LA should be monitored intensively after CPB.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Background: Although central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2 ) has been used as an endpoint for the treatment of circulatory shock, its role in guiding the evaluation and treatment of patients with severe hypoxemia remains to be assessed. The aim of this study was to assess the incidence of low ScvO 2 in a cohort of hypoxemic patients and the association of this finding with differences in clinical management and patient outcomes. Methods: Retrospective review of data from adult intensive care unit patients with hypoxemia who required invasive mechanical ventilation for over 24 h and had at least one ScvO 2 measured within 6 h of a PaO 2 /FiO 2 ratio <200. Results: Of 442 mechanically ventilated patients with severe hypoxemia, 249 (56%) had an ScvO 2 <70%. When compared with patients with ScvO 2 ≥70%, those with low ScvO 2 had worse systemic oxygenation and hemodynamic parameters and were more likely to receive red blood cell transfusions (31.7% vs. 18.1%, P = 0.001), epinephrine (27.3% vs. 16.6%, P = 0.007), and inodilators. Outcomes such as median intensive care unit length of stay (7.5 vs. 8.3 days, P = 0.337) and hospital mortality (39.8% vs. 35.7%, P = 0.389) were not different between groups. When stratified by the central venous-to-arterial CO 2 difference (∆PCO 2 ), patients with a low ScvO 2 and normal ∆PCO 2 had lower median PaO 2 and hemoglobin levels and received more red blood cell transfusions, whereas those with an increased ∆PCO 2 had a lower pulse pressure and cardiac index and were more likely to receive epinephrine and milrinone. Conclusion: Low ScvO 2 is frequently observed in mechanically ventilated patients with severe hypoxemia, and these patients receive different interventions. Clinicians often use therapies targeting systemic oxygen delivery to correct low ScvO 2 . Prospective research is needed to identify patients with severe hypoxemia that might benefit from interventions targeting systemic oxygen delivery.

Abstract
Cardiovascular instability and reduced oxygenation are regular perioperative critical events associated with anesthesia requiring intervention in neonates and young infants. This review article addresses the current modalities of assessing this population's adequate end-organ perfusion in the perioperative period. Assuring adequate tissue oxygenation in critically ill infants is based on parameters that measure acceptable macrocirculatory hemodynamic parameters such as vital signs (mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate, urinary output) and chemical parameters (lactic acidosis, mixed venous oxygen saturation, base deficit). Microcirculation assessment represents a promising candidate for assessing and improving hemodynamic management strategies in perioperative and critically ill populations. Evaluation of the functional state of the microcirculation can parallel improvement in tissue perfusion, a term coined as "hemodynamic coherence". Less information is available to assess microcirculatory disturbances related to higher mortality risk in critically ill adults and pediatric patients with septic shock. Techniques for measuring microcirculation have substantially improved in the past decade and have evolved from methods that are limited in scope, such as velocity-based laser Doppler and near-infrared spectroscopy, to handheld vital microscopy (HVM), also referred to as videomicroscopy. Available technologies to assess microcirculation include sublingual incident dark field (IDF) and sublingual sidestream dark field (SDF) devices. This chapter addresses (1) the physiological basis of microcirculation and its relevance to the neonatal and pediatric populations, (2) the pathophysiology associated with altered microcirculation and endothelium, and (3) the current literature reviewing modalities to detect and quantify the presence of microcirculatory alterations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Patients undergoing cardiac surgery are prone to numerous complications. Increased vascular permeability may be associated with morbidity and mortality due to hemodynamic instability, fluid overload, and edema formation. We hypothesized that markers of endothelial injury and inflammation are associated with capillary leak, ultimately increasing the risk of postoperative complications. METHODS In this prospective, observational, multidisciplinary cohort study at our tertiary academic medical center, we recruited 405 cardiac surgery patients. Patients were assessed daily using body impedance electrical analysis, ultrasound, sublingual intravital microscopy, and analysis of serum biomarkers. Multivariable models, as well as machine learning, were used to study the association of angiopoietin-2 with extracellular water as well as common complications after cardiac surgery. RESULTS The majority of patients underwent coronary artery bypass grafting, valvular, or aortic surgeries. Across the groups, extracellular water increased postoperatively (20 ± 6 preoperatively to 29 ± 7L on postoperative day 2; P < 0.001). Concomitantly, the levels of the biomarker angiopoietin-2 rose, showing a strong correlation based on the time points of measurements (r = 0.959, P = 0.041). Inflammatory (IL-6, IL-8, CRP) and endothelial biomarkers (VE-Cadherin, syndecan-1, ICAM-1) suggestive of capillary leak were increased. After controlling for common risk factors of edema formation, we found that an increase of 1 ng/mL in angiopoietin-2 was associated with a 0.24L increase in extracellular water (P < 0.001). Angiopoietin-2 showed increased odds for the development of acute kidney injury (OR 1.095 [95% CI 1.032, 1.169]; P = 0.004) and was furthermore associated with delayed extubation, longer time in the ICU, and a higher chance of prolonged dependence on vasoactive medication. Machine learning predicted postoperative complications when capillary leak was added to standard risk factors. CONCLUSIONS Capillary leak and subsequent edema formation are relevant problems after cardiac surgery. Levels of angiopoietin-2 in combination with extracellular water show promising potential to predict postoperative complications after cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Microvascular alterations were first described in critically ill patients about 20 years ago. These alterations are characterized by a decrease in vascular density and presence of non-perfused capillaries close to well-perfused vessels. In addition, heterogeneity in microvascular perfusion is a key finding in sepsis. In this narrative review, we report our actual understanding of microvascular alterations, their role in the development of organ dysfunction, and the implications for outcome. Herein, we discuss the state of the potential therapeutic interventions and the potential impact of novel therapies. We also discuss how recent technologic development may affect the evaluation of microvascular perfusion.

Abstract
Background: Serum lactate is commonly measured in the perioperative period in patients who have undergone surgery for an acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD). However, conflicting data has been reported as to whether lactate elevation is associated with short-term prognosis. The aim of the current study was to determine the association between perioperative arterial lactate levels and postoperative 30-day mortality. Methods: Patients who underwent repair of a ATAAD at our institution were retrospectively screened and those with comprehensive measurements of serum lactate before surgery and at 0, 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h after surgery in the intensive care unit (ICU) were selected for the analysis. Patients' demographic features and outcomes were reviewed to determine risk factors associated with 30-day mortality using logistic regression modeling. The association between serum lactate levels at different time points and 30-day mortality were analyzed by receiver-operating characteristic curves. Results: 513 patients were identified and retrospectively analyzed for this study including 66 patients (12.9%) who died within 30 days after surgery. Patients who died within 30 days after surgery had elevated lactate levels measured before surgery and at 0, 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 h after their ICU stay. Lactate measured at 24 h post ICU admission (odds ratio, 2.131; 95% confidence interval, 1.346-3.374; p = 0.001) was a predictor of 30-day mortality. The area under the curve (AUC) for 30-day mortality with lactate levels at 12 h and 24 h post ICU stay were 0.820 and 0.805, respectively. Conclusion: Early elevation of lactate level is correlated with increased 30-day mortality in patients who received ATAAD surgical repair.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Persistent microcirculatory dysfunction associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Interventions in the early resuscitation can be tailored to the changes of microcirculation and patient's need. However, there is usually an uncoupling of macrocirculatory and microcirculatory hemodynamics during resuscitation. Current research on the patterns of microcirculatory changes and recovery after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)-assisted cardiac surgery is limited. This study aimed to analyze changes in the microcirculatory parameters after CPB and their correlation with macrocirculation and to explore the characteristics of microcirculatory changes following CPB-assisted cardiac surgery. METHODS Between December 2018 and January 2019, 24 adult patients with indwelling pulmonary artery catheters after elective cardiac surgery using CPB were enrolled in this study. Both microcirculatory and macrocirculatory parameters were collected at 0, 6, 16, and 24 hours after admission to the intensive care unit (ICU). Video images of sublingual microcirculation were analyzed to obtain the microcirculatory parameters, including total vascular density (TVD), perfused small vessel density (PSVD), the proportion of perfused small vessels (PPV), microvascular flow index (MFI), and flow heterogeneity index (HI). The characteristics of microcirculatory parameter change following cardiac surgery and the correlation between microcirculatory parameters and macroscopic hemodynamic indicators, oxygen metabolic indicators, and carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (PCO2gap) were analyzed. RESULTS There were significant differences in the changes of TVD (P=0.012) and PSVD (P=0.005) during the first 24 hours postoperatively in patients who underwent CPB-assisted cardiac surgery. The microcirculatory density parameters (TVD: r=-0.5059, P=0.0456; PVD: r=-0.5499, P=0.0273) were correlated with oxygen delivery index (DO2I) at 24 hours after surgery. The microcirculatory flow parameters (PPV: r=0.4370, P=0.0327; MFI: r=0.6496, P=0.0006; and HI: r=-0.5350, P=0.0071) had a strong correlation with PCO2gap at 0 hour after surgery. CONCLUSIONS TVD and PSVD might be two most sensitive indicators affected by CPB-assisted cardiac surgery. There was no consistency between microcirculation and macrocirculation until 24 hours following cardiac surgery, meaning the improvement of systemic hemodynamic indicators does not guarantee correspondently improvement in microcirculation. Early controlled oxygen supply after CPB-assisted cardiac surgery may be conducive to the resuscitation of patients to a certain extent.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the risk factors of postoperative hypoxemia in patients after triple-branched stent graft implantation surgery with acute type A aortic dissection by conducting a nomogram. METHODS We evaluated 97 patients with acute type A aortic dissection (2020-2021), who underwent triple-branched stent graft implantation surgery. The independent risk factors were screened using univariate and multivariate logistic regression. We integrated significant factors as well as potential interference factors to build the nomogram model. The accuracy of the nomogram model was determined by using receiver operating characteristic curves (ROC), decision curve analyses (DCA), and calibration plots. Internal verification was evaluated using bootstrap validation. RESULTS Logistic regression analysis illustrated that the postoperative lactic acid, postoperative creatinine, and intraoperative aortic occlusion time were all independent risk factors for hypoxemia. Age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) were clinically relevant for predicting postoperative hypoxemia. We established a nomogram based on these six risk factors. The ROC (area under the curve [AUC] = 0.765), DCA, and calibration confirmed good discriminatory applicability and accuracy of the nomogram. Bootstrap validation (AUC = 0.76) verified the applicability of the nomogram. CONCLUSIONS The nomogram model could serve as a tool for the prediction of postoperative hypoxemia in patients after modified triple-branched stent graft implantation surgery with acute type A aortic dissection.

Abstract
Background Despite current resuscitation strategies, circulatory shock and organ injury after cardiac surgery occur in 25–40% of patients. Goal-directed resuscitation after cardiac surgery has generated significant interest, but clinical practice to normalize hemodynamic variables including mean arterial pressure, cardiac filling pressures, and cardiac output may not reverse microcirculation abnormalities and do not address cellular dysoxia. Recent advances in technology have made it possible to measure critical components of oxygen delivery and oxygen utilization systems in live human tissues and blood cells. The MicroRESUS study will be the first study to measure microcirculatory and mitochondrial function in patients with circulatory shock and link these findings with clinical outcomes. Methods and analysis This will be a prospective, observational study that includes patients undergoing elective cardiovascular surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Microcirculation will be quantified with sublingual incident dark field videomicroscopy. Mitochondrial respiration will be measured by performing a substrate–uncoupler–inhibitor titration protocol with high resolution respirometry on peripheral blood mononuclear cells at baseline and serial timepoints during resuscitation and at recovery as a possible liquid biomarker. Plasma samples will be preserved for future analysis to examine endothelial injury and other mechanisms of microcirculatory dysfunction. Thirty-day ventilator and vasopressor-free days (VVFDs) will be measured as a primary outcome, along with sequential organ failure assessment scores, and other clinical parameters to determine if changes in microcirculation and mitochondrial respiration are more strongly associated with clinical outcomes compared to traditional resuscitation targets. Discussion This will be the first prospective study to examine both microcirculatory and mitochondrial function in human patients with circulatory shock undergoing cardiac bypass and address a key mechanistic knowledge gap in the cardiovascular literature. The results of this study will direct future research efforts and therapeutic development for patients with shock.

Abstract
Background Hyperlactatemia may be caused by increased production due to tissue hypoxia or non-hypoxia. The aim of this study was first to identify risk factors for postoperative hyperlactatemia (POHL) after Stanford type A acute aortic dissection surgery (AADS) and construct a predictive model, and second to evaluate the impact of POHL on prognosis. Methods This retrospective study involved patients undergoing AADS from January 2016 to December 2019 in Wuhan Union Hospital. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for POHL. A nomogram predicting POHL was established based on these factors and was validated in the original dataset. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to assess the ability of postoperative lactate levels to predict the in-hospital mortality. Results A total of 188 patients developed POHL after AADS (38.6%). Male gender, surgery history, red blood cell transfusion and cardiopulmonary bypass time were identified as independent predictors. The C-index of the prediction model for POHL was 0.72, indicating reasonable discrimination. The model was well calibrated by visual inspection and goodness-of-fit test (Hosmer–Lemeshow χ2 = 10.25, P = 0.25). Decision and clinical impact curves of the model showed good clinical utility. The overall in-hospital mortality rate was 10.1%. Postoperative lactate levels showed a moderate predictive power for postoperative in-hospital mortality (C-index: 0.72). Conclusion We developed and validated a prediction model for POHL in patients undergoing AADS, which may have clinical utility in personal risk evaluation and preventive interventions. The POHL could be a good predictor for in-hospital mortality. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1186/s12872-021-02244-7.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of the present study were to evaluate and compare the safety and feasibility, including hospitalization, intensive care unit (ICU) stay, frequency of conversion to general anesthesia (GA), pH, PaCO2, and PaO2, of selected patients who underwent minimally invasive mitral valve surgery (MIMVS) via a right minithoracotomy under conscious sedation (CS) to avoid GA. The authors also aimed to evaluate the perioperative management of spontaneous breathing. DESIGN A retrospective, observational study. SETTING Single-center. PARTICIPANTS This study enrolled 101 patients who underwent MIMVS under CS or GA. INTERVENTIONS The patients who underwent MIMVS were managed under CS or GA according to indication criteria. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS ICU stay (p = 0.010), postoperative time until first fluid intake (p < 0.0001), and duration of mechanical ventilation (p = 0.004) were shorter in the CS group than in the GA group. No patients converted to GA from CS. PaCO2 during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in the CS group was significantly lower than that in the GA group. However, PaCO2 at the termination of CPB in the CS group was significantly higher than that in the GA group. CONCLUSIONS In the CS group, advanced-age patients with comorbidities underwent mitral surgery without postoperative complications. The authors' findings suggested that MIMVS under CS could be a potentially less-invasive method, providing a quicker recovery than MIMVS under GA.
