Increased plasma levels of endothelin-1 after cardiopulmonary bypass in patients with pulmonary hypertension and congenital heart disease

Vascular Biology and Pharmacology Unit, Institute of Child Health, London, England.

The plasma level of the potent vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 was measured in children who underwent cardiac operations. Forty-five patients were divided into two groups, those with a high pulmonary blood flow (HF group; n = 23) and those with a normal or low flow (NF group; n = 22). Seven blood samples were taken: immediately before cardiopulmonary bypass, immediately after removing the aortic cross- clamps, immediately after discontinuing bypass, and at 20 minutes and 3, 6, and 24 hours after termination of bypass. The plasma levels of endothelin-1 were similar in both groups before bypass. From the time the aortic crossclamps were removed, the plasma endothelin-1 levels in both groups increased significantly, to reach a peak level at 3 to 6 hours. The increase was significantly greater in the HF than in the NF group, and the maximum values in the two groups were 12.6 +/- 1.1 and 9.6 +/- 0.8 fmol/ml, respectively (mean +/- standard error of the mean, p < 0.05). The value 20 minutes after bypass showed a positive correlation with the mean pulmonary arterial pressure measured at the preoperative cardiac catheterization study (r = 0.41, p < 0.05). In addition, a significant positive correlation was obtained between endothelin-1 3 hours after bypass and the maximum pulmonary/systemic arterial pressure ratio during the first 12 hours after operation (r = 0.86, p < 0.05). These results suggest that cardiopulmonary bypass is associated with an immediate postoperative increase in circulating endothelin and that patients who had a high pulmonary blood flow before the operation are particularly vulnerable, bypass having a more injurious effect on a lung with preexisting endothelial dysfunction. A high level of circulating endothelin may predispose to pulmonary vascular lability and pulmonary hypertensive crises in the postoperative period.
