Phentolamine administration increases blood S100B protein levels in pediatric open-heart surgery patients

Abstract: Despite improved peripheral vasodilatation and perfusion, phentolamine administration in pediatric open-heart surgery is correlated with increased cerebrovascular resistance and brain damage.

“…From one hand, the absence of any interference in circulating S100B in the perioperative period is in agreement with previous observations, both in adults and children, reporting no compromise on the diagnostic value of S100B in neurological diseases in intact subjects (without traumatic brain or bodily injury from accident or surgery) [ 26 ]. These findings are also consistent with the usefulness of the protein in brain monitoring of CHD infants [ 18 20 ]. On the other hand, the discrepancy with previous observations warrants further consideration in terms of contamination following invasive procedures during CPB.…”

“…S100B is an acidic calcium-modulated protein of low molecular weight, first identified by Moore as a protein fraction detectable in the central nervous system (CNS) in glial and Schwann cells and in specific neuronal subpopulations [ 16 ]. With regard to CHD infants who underwent cardiac surgery and CPB, S100B has been shown to be increased in the perioperative period [ 17 , 18 ], to correlate with different CPB phases [ 19 ] and with increased cerebrovascular resistance and brain damage [ 20 ]. However, protein's assessment in CHD infants for CPB monitoring has been progressively abandoned on the basis of S100B extra CNS site of concentrations including adipose tissue [ 21 ].…”

“…6) Intervene: Patients with utilizations of modified CPB circuit and oxygenators [ 25 , 26 , 60 , 72 ] , cell saving reservoir [ 33 ] , anesthetic agents and priming components (propofol [ 53 ] , isoflurane [ 64 ] , hydroxyethyl [ 46 ] and starch [ 42 ] ) during the operation aiming at lessening the cerebral damage were defined as the Intervene Subgroup. Those without intervenes were defined as control.…”
