Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to assess whether removal of the radial artery (RA) caused any alteration in the function or power of the hand 15th day postoperatively that would affect the comfort of female patients over 60 years old. Material and Methods: We utilized RA graft to 64 coronary artery bypass patients over 60 years old between January 1998 and December 2003, which was examined by Allen test with pulse oxymetry. The study group was constituted of retrospectively 18 (%28.12) elderly patients, admitted with objective or subjective complainments at postoperative 15th day. All vasodilators were stopped 24-48 hours before assessments. Patients were examined for bilateral forearm function (soft touch and pin-prick neural sensation, handgrip power) and blood flow measurements (Doppler USG). The ulnar artery and palmar arcus Doppler measurements were obtained. The operated arm was evaluated and compared with the opposite arm. Results: The sensory defects were detected in 12 (%66.66) patients. The power loss complaint in the RA excised arm was found statistically significant (p<0.05) but on the other hand the results of the handgrip examination was not found statistically significant. The comparison of the Doppler USG blood flow recordings of the RA excised arm demonstrated that the ulnar artery tepe systolic and end diastolic flow before and after exercise was statistically significant (p<0.05), without any change in the ulnar artery radius. The comparison of the ulnar artery radius and blood flow in the RA excised arm and the contralateral arm after exercise demonstrates that the tepe systolic and diastolic flow didn't differ in both groups. Conclusions: we can conclude that utilization of the appropriate method and carefully excised RA graft neither changes the forearm blood supply and functions in the early postoperative period nor causes any paresthesia or sensory disturbances in coronary artery bypass patients over 60 years old.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı 60 yaş üzeri koroner bypass cerrahisi uygulanan bayan hastalarda Radial arter (RA) greft çıkarılmasının postoperatif 15. günde el fonksiyonları ve kuvveti üzerinde herhangi bir değişiklik yapıp yapmadı ğını vazodilatatör ortaya koymaktır. Gereç ve Yöntem: 1998 Ocak-2003 Aralık ayı sonuna kadar kalp ve damar cerrahisi kliniğinde koroner bypass ameliyatında pulseoksimetre ile Allen muayenesi yapılmış RA greft 69±9 yaş üzerinde 64 bayan hastada kullanıldı. Bu çalışma, bu hasta grubu dosya kayıtları incelemesiyle retrospektif olarak yapıldı. Postoperatif 15. gün kontrolün de RA çıkarılan kolunda objektif veya sübjektif şikayetlerle müracaat eden 69±9 yaş üzeri 18 hasta (%28.12) çalış ma grubunu oluşturdu. Ölçümler yapılmadan 24-48 saat önce hastaların kullandığı tüm kalsiyum kanal blokeri, nitrat vs gibi vazodilatatör ilaçları kesildi. Hastaların her iki kolu karşılaştırmalı olarak yumuşak dokunuşu, iğne ucu dokundurmasını hissediş ve el kavrama gücü açısından değerlendirildi. Her iki ön kol kanlanması Doppler ultrasonografi ile değerlendirilerek ulnar arter ve palmar ark Doppler ölçümleri elde edildi. Tüm ölçümlerde RA çıkarılma yan kol kontrol grubunu oluşturdu. Bulgular: His kusuru bozukluğu 12 (%66.66) hastada belirlendi. RA çıkarılan kolunda güç kuvvet kaybı şikayeti tüm hastalar arasında istatistiki olarak anlamlı (p 0.05) ola rak tesbit edildi. RA çıkarılmış kolda Ulnar arter tepe sistolik ve diyastol sonu akım hızlarının egzersiz sonrası ölçümlerinde istatistiki olarak anlamlı şekilde arttığı (p<0.05), ancak ulnar arter çaplarında egzersiz öncesi ve sonra sında istatistiki olarak anlamlı bir artış gözlenmediği tesbit edildi. RA çıkarılmış kol ve çıkarılmayan kol eksersiz sonrası ulnar arter çap ve kan akımı karşılaştırmalarında tepe sistolik ve diyastol sonu akım hızlarının her iki grupta istatistiki bir farklılık göstermediği tesbit edildi. Sonuç: Altmış yaş üzeri bayan hastalarda koroner revaskülarizasyon da uygun yöntemlerle seçilmiş ve itina ile çıkarılmış RA greft kullanılması, postoperatif erken dönemde el kol kanlanmasını fonksiyonlarını değiştirmez, parestezi ve his kusuru bozukluklarına yol açmaz.
