Brief Summary

  1. 1.Cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest could regulate expression of microRNAs in patients undergoing double valve replacement (aortic and mitral).
  2. 2.The modulation of myocardial microRNAs by cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest may be rescued by ischemic postconditioning.
  3. 3.Downstream effectors would also be affected.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in Cardiac MicroRNA Expression

    Samples were harvested from all the patients, respectively, before cardiopulmonary bypass and at 5 min after aortic de-clamping. Real-time quantitative stem-loop reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assay was performed to detect the expression of microRNAs.

    before cardiopulmonary bypass and at 5 min after aortic de-clamping

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in Downstream Gene Expression

    before cardiopulmonary bypass and at 5 min after aortic de-clamping

Study Arms (2)

CON

SHAM COMPARATOR

Patients undergoing double valve replacement (aortic and mitral).

Procedure: double valve replacementDevice: heart-lung machineDevice: Aortic cross-clamp

IPO

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients undergoing double valve replacement (aortic and mitral) with ischemic postconditioning.

Procedure: ischemic postconditioningProcedure: double valve replacementDevice: heart-lung machineDevice: Aortic cross-clamp

Interventions

multiple brief ischemic-reperfusion episodes immediately after sustained ischemic insult Postconditioning was started at 30 s after aortic cross declamping, and the aorta was re-clamped for 30 s rendering global myocardial ischemia. Meanwhile aortic root suction was established during aortic re-clamping, and thereafter, the aortic clamp was released for 30 s for full myocardial reperfusion. The cycle was repeated three times after cardioplegic arrest.

IPO

The double valve replacement is a procedure in which surgery is used to replace diseased aortic and mitral heart valves.

CONIPO

The heart-lung machine is commonly used in open heart surgery including double valve replacement to support the circulation during the operation.

CONIPO

a surgical instrument used in cardiac surgery to clamp the aorta
