The efficacy of myocardial protection with a single aortic crossclamp and
blood cardioplegia was evaluated in 819 consecutive patients stratified for
preoperative condition by means of a new clinical risk scoring system. A
protocol using either antegrade or antegrade/retrograde blood cardioplegia
was compared with antegrade crystalloid cardioplegia in 2582 similar,
consecutive, and concurrent patients. In the blood cardioplegia cohort, 97
(11.8%) patients had 129 complications compared with 407 (15.8%) patients
and 675 complications in the crystalloid cardioplegia group (p = 0.006). In
high-risk patients, combined antegrade/retrograde cardioplegia
significantly reduced myocardial infarction, stroke, and respiratory and
wound complications. Despite the significantly longer aortic crossclamp
time required for blood cardioplegia, patients undergoing crystalloid
cardioplegia were 1.7 (95% confidence interval 1.3, 2.1) times more likely
to have a morbid event. Time in the intensive care unit, length of
hospitalization, and length-of-stay outlier status were significantly
decreased in the blood cardioplegia compared with the crystalloid
cardioplegia group. The net savings in hospital cost amounted to $2196 per
case. When compared separately with crystalloid cardioplegia, combined
antegrade/retrograde blood cardioplegia accounted for most of the morbidity
reduction by significantly reducing perioperative myocardial infarction,
wound complications, and length of stay in patients having reoperations.
Antegrade/retrograde blood cardioplegia did not influence 1-year survival
or event-free survival, even when risk was considered.
