ABSTRACT
Introduction: The perfusion of the coronary artery to the left ventricle occurs primarily during diastole. So there must be adequate diastolic pressure in the aortic root of both coronary arteries to be perfused. Maintaining an adequate coronary perfusion should be a primary goal in resuscitation of any patient in shock.Aim: Determinate the correlation between hemodynamic parameters and the treatment shock with the coronary perfusion pressure (PPC) in the critically ill patients.
Methods: A retrospective study. We included all patients in a six month period with Swan-Ganz catheter. The statistical correlation of variables with PPC was assessed with a Pearson Test and ROC curve for discrimination of the test.
Results: We studied 28 patients, the APACHE II score was 19.6 ± 7.5; in the admission the PPC was 42.2 ± 10.8 mmHg, and had a inverse correlation with PAOP (p ‹ 0.001) and CVP (p = 0.001), regarding mortality it had a negative correlation with the PPC at admission (P = 0.022), the cutoff value for PPC for mortality was 42 mmHg with a sen 100% and spec 58% (p = 0.026 AUC .854). Also to the 24 h, the CVP and PAOP had a positive correlation with mortality (p = 0.016 and 0.026). To the 24 h, the PPC had a positive correlation with PAOP (p = 0.015). There was negative correlation between PPC and the use of inotropics and vasoactives but without significance.
Conclusion: It’s possible to estimate the PPC as a determinant of Reanimation as the PAOP, SVO2, and CVP. We expect that a low value of PPC could guide the use of inotropic or vasoactives; this may also determine an index of the efficacy and/or impact of treatment on the management of critical care patient.
