Abstract

We describe a case of successful extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) in a small infant with cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) failure after an open heart surgery. A 35-day-old male infant weighing 4.4 kg who had congestive heart failure and pulmonary hypertension underwent patch closure of ventricular septal defect without any intraoperative event. Postoperative course was unremarkable in the intensive care uint for about 5 hours before the junctional ectopic tachycardia developed. Sudden cardiac decompensation with bradycardia occurred about 50 minutes after the development of junctional ectopic tachycardia. He was put on ECMO by arterial cannulation at the ascending aorta and by venous cannulation at the right atrial appendage after 4 hours' CPR. The hemodynamics were stable with enough urine output during ECMO. He was weaned from ECMO 38.5 hours after initiation. Delayed sternal closure was attempted. He was extubated on postoperative day 7 and discharged home on postoperative day 21 without any neurologic sequelae.

저자들은 심장수술 후 발생한 심정지로 심폐소생술을 시행한 신생아에서 성공적인 체외막산소화 장치(ECMO)사용 1례를 경험하였다. 환자는 울혈성 심부전과 폐동맥 고혈압을 가졌던 4.4kg의 35일된 남아로 술중에 특별한 문제없이 심실중격결손증을 첨포봉합법으로 봉합하였다. 심장 중환자실에서의 술후 경과는 junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET)가 나타나기 전까지 약 5시간 동안은 특별한 문제가 없었다. junctional ectopic tachycardia (JET)가 나타난 후 50분경과한 뒤 갑작스러운 서맥이 나타나면서 수축기 혈압이 50mmHg로 하강하여 곧 흉골절개 봉합부(sternotomy incision)를 열고 심폐소생술을 바로 시행하였으며 심폐소생술을 시행한 지 4시간 후에 상행대동맥에 동맥관을 그리고 정맥관은 우심방이에 삽관하여 체외막산소화 장치를 시작하였다. 환자의 혈액동력학은 체외막산소화 동안 안정적이었으며, 시작 후 38.5시간 만에 중지하였다. 흉골지연봉합을 시도하였고, 환자는 수술 후 7일째 인공호흡기를 제거했으며, 신경학적 합병증없이 수술 후 21일째 퇴원하였다.
