The estimation of anemia degree in patients after heart valve replacement and coronary artery bypass surgery
Cilj: Utvrditi prisutnost, vrstu i stupanj anemije u bolesnika nakon operacije zamjene
srÄanih zalistaka i aortokoronarnog premoÅ”tenja tijekom prva tri tjedna rane stacionarne medicinske
rehabilitacije. Ispitanici i postupci: Podaci su dobiveni analizom medicinske dokumentacije
na temelju odobrenja EtiÄkog povjerenstva Specijalne bolnice za medicinsku rehabilitaciju
bolesti srca, pluÄa i reumatizma āThalassotherapia ā Opatijaā iz Opatije u skladu sa
svim primjenjivim smjernicama Osnova dobre kliniÄke prakse i HelsinÅ”ke deklaracije. Istraživanje
je obuhvatilo 145 bolesnika s aortokoronarnim premoŔtenjem i 67 bolesnika sa zamijenjenim
srÄanim zaliskom. Obje skupine podijeljene su na skupinu muÅ”karaca i žena, a rezultati usporeÄivani
sa zdravim ispitanicima koriŔtenjem neparametrijskih testova Kruskal-Wallis i
Mann-Whitneyjeva U-testa. Rezultati: U skupini žena i muÅ”karaca nakon operacije zamjene srÄanih
zalistaka i nakon uÄinjenog aortokoronarnog premoÅ”tenja broj eritrocita, koncentracija
hemoglobina i hematokrit statistiÄki su znaÄajno sniženi (sva tri P < 0,001) u odnosu na skupinu
zdravih ispitanika, no nismo utvrdili znaÄajnu razliku u hematoloÅ”kim indeksima izmeÄu navedenih
skupina. Rasprava: U ispitivanih bolesnika postoje promjene u eritrogramu u smislu
smanjenja broja normokromnih i normocitnih eritrocita, iako promjene nisu dostatne za proglaŔenje
anemije. Zbog poznate poveÄane stope smrtnosti od anemije u srÄanih bolesnika potrebno
je tragati za razvojem anemije, procjenjivati stupanj i odrediti njezin uzrok, s ciljem pravovremenog
i odgovarajuÄeg lijeÄenja. ZakljuÄak: Radi se o stanju koje se relativno
jednostavno može lijeÄiti preparatima željeza i vrlo oprezno lijekovima koji potiÄu eritrocitopoezu
u bolesnika sa zatajivanjem bubrežne funkcije, Å”to može sprijeÄiti ili smanjiti potrebu za
transfuzijama deplazmatiziranih eritrocita, koje u srÄanih bolesnika nose viÅ”e neželjenih reakcija.Aim: To determine the presence, type and degree of anemia in patients after heart
valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting during the first three weeks of early
stationary medical rehabilitation. Patients and methods: Data were obtained by analyzing
medical records of the subjects following the approval of the Ethics Committee of Special hospital
for medical rehabilitation of heart, lungs and rheumatism āThalassotherapy ā Opatijaā
from Opatija in accordance with all applicable guidelines in basics of good clinical practice and
the Declaration of Helsinki. Research included 145 patients with coronary artery bypass and
67 patients with heart valve replacement. Both groups were divided into a group of men and
women, and the results were compared with healthy subjects using nonparametric Kruskal-
Wallis and Mann-Whitney U test. Results: In the group of women and men after heart valve
replacement surgery and coronary artery bypass grafting the number of erythrocytes, hemoglobin
concentration and hematocrit were significantly decreased compared to the control
group (all P < 0,001), but no significant difference in hematological indexes were found. Discussion: In patients under observation there are changes
in erythrogram in reducing the number of normochrome and
normocyte erythrocytes, although the changes are not profound
to declare the anemia. Because of the known increased
mortality rates of anemia in cardiac patients, we should look
for anemia, evaluate and determine its cause, in order to provide
appropriate treatment in time. Conclusions: It is a condition
that can be treated relatively easily with iron and very
cautiously with drugs stimulating erythropoesis, particularly
in patients with kidney insufficiency. It can prevent or decrease
need for blood transfusions, which carry more side effects
in cardiac patients
