- Abstract:
- BACKGROUND: Copeptin is a cleavage product of vasopressin. This study aimed to figure out if copeptin would be a suitable biomarker in patients with congenital heart disease in the postoperative course. METHODS: The primary outcome endpoint of this study was the change in copeptin concentration perioperatively in patients with congenital heart disease after surgery, with the use of a cardiopulmonary bypass. Three blood samples were taken from 81 patients up to 6 years of age in order to evaluate changes in copeptin concentration. RESULTS: Significant increase of copeptin concentration was shown between the first and second blood draws as well as between the first and third blood draws (Ps < .001). Additionally, positive and significant correlations (r ≥ .27) between the cardiopulmonary bypass times, The Society of Thoracic Surgeons and European Association for Cardio-Thoracic Surgery mortality category, the inotropic score, the duration of mechanical ventilation, the length of stay at the intensive care unit (ICU), the length of stay at the hospital, and the preoperative as well as the ICU copeptin levels were found. CONCLUSIONS: Copeptin showed a tendency to predict the clinical outcome of patients after congenital heart surgery. Patients with higher copeptin levels underwent more complex procedures, had longer cardiopulmonary bypass times, required more catecholamine support, needed longer time of invasive ventilation, and had longer overall stay and ICU stay.
