    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To assess the accuracy and applicability of a novel system, not requiring calibration, for continuous lactate monitoring with intravascular microdialysis in high-risk cardiac surgery. DESIGN: Single-center prospective observational study. SETTING: City Hospital #1 of Arkhangelsk, Russian Federation. PARTICIPANTS: Twenty-one adult patients undergoing elective complex repair or replacement of two or more valves or combined valve and coronary artery cardiac surgery. INTERVENTIONS: After induction of anesthesia, in all patients a dedicated triple-lumen catheter functioning as a regular central venous catheter with integrated microdialysis function was inserted via the right jugular vein for continuous lactate monitoring using the intravascular microdialysis system. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Lactate values displayed by the microdialysis system were compared with the reference arterial blood gas (ABG) values. In total, 432 paired microdialysis-ABG lactate samples were obtained. After surgery, the concentration of lactate increased significantly, peaking at 8 hours (p<0.05). The lactate clearance within 8 hours after peak concentration was 50% (39%-63%). There was a significant correlation between Lactatecont and Lactatecont (rho = 0.92, p<0.0001). Bland-Altman analysis showed a bias (mean difference)±limits of agreement (±1.96 SD) of 0.09±1.1 mmol/L. In patients with postoperative complications, peak lactate concentration was significantly higher compared with those without complications: 6.75 (4.43-7.75) mmol/L, versus 4.20 (3.95-4.87) mmol/L (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: Lactate concentration increased significantly after high-risk cardiac surgery. The intravascular microdialysis technique for lactate measurement provided acceptable accuracy and can be used for continuous blood lactate monitoring in cardiac surgery.
