Goor, MD, and Rephael Mohr, MD Department of Cardiac Surgery, The Maurice and Gabriela Goldschleger Eye Institute, and The National Hemophilia Center, The Chaim Sheba Medical Center, and The Sackler Faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University, Tel Hashomer, Israel. To evaluate the effect of low-dose aprotinin during cardiopulmonary bypass on platelet function and clinical hemostasis, 30 patients undergoing various cardiopulmonary bypass procedures employing bubble oxygenators were randomized to receive either low-dose aprotinin (2 X lo6 KIU in the cardiopulmonary bypass priming solution, 15 patients [group A]) or placebo (15 patients [group B]). Blood samples were collected before and after cardiopulmonary bypass to assess platelet count and aggregation on extracellular matrix, which was studied by a scanning electron microscope. On a scale of 1 to 4 preoperative mean platelet aggregation grades were similar in both groups (3.8 f 0.5 and 3.5 f 0.5 for groups A and B, respectively). Postoperatively, platelet aggregation on extracellular matrix decreased slightly in group A ( ; p < 0.01) and significantly in group B (1.3 f 0.5; p < 0.001). Eleven of the 15 patients in group A remained in aggregation grade 3 or 4 compared with none of the group B patients. Platelet count was similar in both groups preoperatively and postoperatively. Total 24-hour postoperative bleeding and blood requirement were lower in the aprotinin group (487 f 121 ml and 2.3 f 1.0 units) than in the placebo group (752 f 404 ml and 6.8 f 5.1 units; p < 0.01). These results show that the use of low-dose aprotinin during cardiopulmonary bypass provides improved postoperative hemostasis, which might be related to the protection of the platelet aggregating capacity. (Ann Thorac Surg 1993;55:114-9) ne of the major causes of bleeding after cardiac 0 operations using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is platelet dysfunction [I, 21. This problem could be overcome by transfusing the patients with fresh whole blood postoperatively [3, 41. However, in recent years, the use of the protease inhibitor aprotinin during CPB has emerged as a promising prophylactic measure in reducing postoperative bleeding and blood transfusion requirements [ This clinical effect has been shown [7, 151 to be mediated by preservation of the platelet function. Most studies reporting the use of aprotinin have used the high-dose regimen, whereby the patient would receive a total of 6 to 7 X lo6 KIU aprotinin, starting with a loading dose before sternotomy and continuing during operation. Recently, several studies [7, 16, 171 have reported using the low-dose regimen, whereby only 2 x lo6 KIU aprotinin is added to the priming volume of the oxygenator, with good clinical results. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the clinical effect of using aprotinin in the low-dose regimen employing bubble oxygenators, and to correlate this effect to platelet function. We evaluated platelet function by using the extracellular matrix (ECM) that simulates the in vivo adhesion and aggregation of platelets on the subendothe- Accepted for publication April 27, 1992 Address reprint requests to Dr Goor, MD, Department of Cardiac Surgery, The Chaim Sheba Medical Center, Tel Hashomer 52621, Israel. lium [MI. The extracellular matrix is produced by cultured bovine corneal endothelial cells and closely resembles the human vascular subendothelial basal lamina in origin and chemical composition [MI. The ECM has served as an in vitro model in the study of platelet-subendothelial interaction [4, 18-21]. The incubation of human platelets on ECM induces platelet adhesion, aggregation, thromboxane A, formation, and a release reaction [ In the present study, platelet aggregation on ECM was studied with the scanning electron microscope. Patients and Methods Thirty patients undergoing various CPB procedures (Table 1) were randomized to receive either low-dose aprotinin (study group [group A], 15 patients) or placebo (control group [group B], 15 patients). The study group received 2 x lo6 KIU aprotinin (Trasylol; Bayer, Leverkusen, Germany) added to the priming volume of the oxygenator. No additional aprotinin doses were given to the patients. Each patient in the control group (group B) received equivalent volumes of placebo solution (saline solution 0.9%) added to the priming volume of the oxygenator. The mean age of the patients was 61 & 9 years (range, 40 to 78 years), with no difference between the two groups (see Table 1). No patient had been receiving dipyridamole or aspirin-containing drugs during the 4 weeks preceding by The Society of Thoracic Surgeons /93/$6.00

For all patients a Sarns pump (Sarns Inc, Ann Arbor, MI) and bubble oxygenator (Bentley Laboratories, Inc, Irvine, CA) were used. The oxygenators were primed with 1,500 ml of Hartmann s solution and 500 ml of dextrose 5% solution. The two groups were similar regarding bypass time, aortic cross-clamping time, and lowest body temperature (see Table 1). All patients were rewarmed to 35 C before discontinuation of CPB. Reversal of the heparin effect by protamine was monitored by the activated clotting time. All pump blood was returned to the patient through the aortic cannula or intravenously by infusion bags without hemoconcentration. None of the patients had to be returned to the operating room because of excessive mediastinal bleeding. Blood samples from each patient, obtained through a flushed arterial catheter, were collected before and at termination of CPB to assess platelet count and aggregation. Platelet count was measured with a Coulter- Counter-S-Plus I1 (Luton, England). Platelet aggregation was evaluated by the ECM model, using a scanning electron microscope [4, 221. Preparation of Dishes Coated With Extracellular Matrix Corneal endothelial cells were grown on 24-well-type culture plates (Nunc CmbH, Roskilde, Denmark) with 5% dextran T-40 (Pharmacia, Fine Chemicals, Sweden) added to the growth medium [18, 20, 211. Cultures were washed once with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and exposed to 0.5% Triton-X 100 solution in PBS (volume per volume) followed by exposure to ammonium hydroxide solution, 0.1 mol/l, and washing in PBS. Extracellular matrixcoated dishes containing PBS were stored before use at 4 C for periods up to 3 months. Platelet Reactivity With Extracellular Matrix Whole blood, 0.5 ml, in a citrate buffer from each sample was added to the tissue culture well coated with ECM Fig 1. bcanning electron rrricrographs of the four aggregation grades on extracellular matrix: (a) grade 1; fb) grade 2; fc) grade 3; (d) grade 4.

At the end of the incubation period, all the blood from the culture dish was collected and the dish was gently flushed several times with PBS. Preparation for Study With Scanning Electron Microscope The ECM-coated dishes, now containing platelet aggregates, were fixed by 2.5% phosphate-buffered glutaraldehyde (ph 7.2), then washed in the same buffer and postfixed by osmium tetroxide 2%. The third fixation was by a solution of 2% tannic acid-guanidine hydrochloride. The triple-fixed samples were dehydrated in graded alcohol solutions, and thereafter the alcohol was exchanged to Freon 112 by graded Freon solutions (Du Pont Company, Wilmington, DE). The samples were air-dried, goldcoated, and examined by a Jeol 840 scanning electron microscope (Jeol USA Inc, Peabody, MA). Grading Platelet Aggregates on Extracellular Matrix As a method of quantitating the aggregation of platelets on ECM as seen by the scanning electron microscope, four distinct aggregation grades were defined according to the various platelet morphologic types previously described [23] (Fig 1). In grade 1 (see Fig la), the platelets are discoid with lentiform appearance, have a smooth surface, and lack any pseudopodia. In this grade the platelets do not adhere to each other, and each platelet can be seen individually. In grade 2 (see Fig lb), the platelets display the first signs of activation, and they appear with slender dentritelike pseudopodia, still separated from each other. In grade 3 (see Fig lc), the aggregation process is more advanced: The platelet body spreads, showing multiple dentritic pseudopodia, and the platelets start to cluster. In this immature aggregate, each platelet can still be identified separately. Grade 4 (see Fig Id) consists of a mature aggregate in which large clumps of platelets are seen and in which individual platelets are difficult to define. In each sample, 40 scanning electron microscopic fields containing platelets were examined at a magnification of 8,000, each given an individual grade. The final aggregation grade of each sample was derived by calculating the arithmetic mean of the individual grades. Although aggregates of different grades could be found in any given sample, a dominant grade for each sample could always be identified. To avoid any element of subjectivity in the grading process, the observers assigned grades blindly, that is, they were not aware of the group to which each sample belonged while grading it. Blood Transfusion Policy The policy of blood transfusion in the intensive care unit differed in the immediate and late postoperative periods. Most blood transfusions were given in the first 8 postoperative hours. The indications for blood transfusion were hemodynamic parameters, such as low systemic and left atrial pressures, and constricted periphery. The amount transfused depended strongly on the amount of blood lost through the chest tubes. Once the patient s condition had stabilized completely, the indication for further blood transfusion was a hemoglobin level less than 10 g/loo ml. Platelet concentrate transfusions were administered only to patients with active bleeding if platelet count was less than 100 x 109/L. Blood loss from the chest tubes, the number of blood Fig 3.

Statistical Analysis Results were expressed as mean k standard deviation. Paired and nonpaired t tests were used for parametric variables, and Fisher s exact test and the Mann-Whitney test for nonparametric variables. Results Preoperative platelet count in group A (aprotinin group; 172? 44 x lo /L) did not differ significantly from that in group B (152 * 50 x lo /L). Similarly, both groups showed significantly lower platelet count after CPB (97? 23 and 88? 30 x 1O /L for groups A and B, respectively; p < 0.001), with no significant difference between the two groups. The mean grade of platelet aggregation on ECM before CPB was similar in both groups (3.8 * 0.5 and for groups A and B, respectively; p = not significant) (Fig 2). Postoperatively, mean platelet aggregation grade on ECM was slightly decreased in group A (2.8 k 1.3; p < 0.01) and significantly decreased in group B ( ; p < 0.001) (see Fig 2). Eleven of the 15 patients in group A remained in grades 3 or 4, and only 4 could not form aggregates on ECM (grades 1 or 2) (Fig 3). Conversely, all patients in the control group (group 8) showed significant decrease of their postoperative aggregation grades to grades 1 or 2, and none showed normal aggregation (see Fig 3). Scanning electron micrographs of patients from each group are shown in Figures 4 and 5. Total 24-hour blood loss in group A was significantly lower than in group B (Table 2). Patients in the aprotinin group received fewer homologous red blood cell units. Only 1 patient in this group received platelet transfusion, and this accounted for the extremely low exposure to homologous blood products (see Table 2). Comment The protease inhibitor aprotinin has been shown in recently published studies to be a promising prophylactic agent in managing CPB-related bleeding [ We [15] and others [5-141 have shown that when given in a high dose, namely, before and during the entire procedure, aprotinin has the capacity to reduce postoperative blood Fig 5.

Total blood products = RBC + plasma + loss and blood transfusion requirement by preserving the platelets adhesive and aggregatory functions. As the high-dose regimen was devised on theoretical grounds [14, 241, few attempts have been reported [7, 16, 171 using a low-dose regimen, namely, 2 X lo6 KIU aprotinin in the priming solution of the oxygenator. In our study we used the low-dose regimen and demonstrated clinical beneficial results in terms of reduced postoperative bleeding and blood transfusion similar to those observed by previous groups who reported the use of the low-dose regimen [7, 16, 171. Moreover, using the ECM model we have shown that the improved clinical hemostasis observed with the lowdose aprotinin regimen may be attributed to the partially preserved platelet aggregatory capacity. Seven of the 15 patients who received low-dose aprotinin maintained normal platelet aggregation (grade 4) after CPB, and another 4 displayed near-normal aggregation (grade 3), as opposed to none of the placebo group patients, who all displayed deranged aggregation (grades 1 and 2). Similar results, albeit somewhat better, were shown by us when the high-dose aprotinin regimen was tested [15]. In that group all patients maintained normal or near-normal platelet aggregation after CPB. Previous reports [7, 251 have correlated the improved hemostasis provided by aprotinin to the preservation of the platelet glycoprotein Ib-dependent adhesive capacity. By using the ECM model as an in vitro model for the study of platelet subendothelium interaction [18-211, we have demonstrated an additional effect of CPB on platelets represented by the deranged aggregatory capacity foli-id in all patients in the placebo group, who showed some platelet adhesion to the ECM (grades 1 and 2), but no signs of aggregation. The lack of aggregation on ECM in the placebo group might be due to fibrinogen receptor defect, as Glanzman s thrombasthenic platelets (which are deficient of glycoprotein IIb/IIIa) exhibit the same response to ECM [19]. These results concur with those of Rinder and colleagues [26, 271, who have shown selective decreases in platelet glycoprotein IIb/IIIa, in addition to Ib, as a result of CPB. The assumption that other agonists present in the ECM, such as collagen or fibronectin, might be responsible for the improved aggregation found in those patients who received aprotinin is negated by the fact that those agonists did not play any role in the placebo group. It should be noted that the discrepancy in the mode of action of aprotinin between our observation and that of others [7,25] may be explained at least partially by the use of bubble oxygenators in our study and membrane oxygenators by the others. It is known that platelet aggregation is better preserved by membrane than by bubble oxygenators [28]. As platelet aggregation on ECM requires both fibrinogen [19] and von Willebrand s factor [29] as ligands for the activated glycoprotein IIbAIIa, our model is not sensitive enough to differentiate which domain on the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa was protected by aprotinin. The preserved aggregatory capacity of platelets in the aprotinin group of our study suggests that at least part, if not all, of the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa was protected. A possible explanation for the protective effect of aprotinin on blood loss during CPB has recently been suggested [14, 301. According to this hypothesis, plasmin, generated during CPB, activates the platelets and causes changes in the distribution of glycoproteins IIbLIIa and Ib on the platelet s membrane [31]. This effect is further enhanced by the lower temperatures used for the CPB procedure [32]. Activated platelets might become nonreactive or cleared from the blood by interaction with components of the CPB system, and thus bleeding tendency is increased. Aprotinin, by its known antifibrinolytic effect [33, 341, may protect postoperative platelet aggregation by inhibiting the high deleterious plasmin level [33]. Our study has not addressed the antifibrinolytic effects of aprotinin but has shown that the final pathway, namely, platelet aggregatory capacity, is preserved by the drug. We conclude that the use of low-dose aprotinin during CPB, using bubble oxygenators, provides improved postoperative hemostasis by preserving the platelet aggregatory capacity. These beneficial effects of aprotinin have reconfirmed the utmost importance of platelets in postoperative hemostasis.
