Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Microvascular flow index

    Microcirculation will be studied with side-stream dark field (SDF) imaging (Microscan; MicroVision Medical, Amsterdam, Netherlands) 5 steady images of at least 20 seconds each will be obtained and stored under a random number. Offline blind analysis of each video will be done by two investigators. A previously validated semiquantitative score will be used (15). It distinguishes between no flow (0), intermittent flow (1), sluggish flow (2), and continuous flow (3). A value is assigned to each individual vessel. The overall score, called the microvascular flow index (MFI), is the average of the individual values.

    Immediately before starting CBP (T0) , 30 min after initiation of bypass (T1), and 30 min after weaning from bypass

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Change in Total vascular density

    Immediately before starting CBP (T0) , 30 min after initiation of bypass (T1), and 30 min after weaning from bypass

  • Change in perfused vessel density

    Immediately before starting CBP (T0) , 30 min after initiation of bypass (T1), and 30 min after weaning from bypass

  • Change in proportion of perfused vessel

    Immediately before starting CBP (T0) , 30 min after initiation of bypass (T1), and 30 min after weaning from bypass

  • Change in Serum lactate

    Immediately before starting CBP (T0) , 30 min after initiation of bypass (T1), and 30 min after weaning from bypass

  • Hemodynamic parameters

    Every hour for six hours after induction

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
