[THE ROLE OF INTESTINE ISCHEMIA IN METABOLIC DISORDERS DURING THE AORTIC CLAMPING ABOVE THE CELIAC TRUNK.]

Abstract

The aim: To identify the role of the intestine in the development of metabolic disorders with operations in the thoracoabdominal aorta developing after clamping of the aorta above the celiac trunk Materials and methods. The study was conducted in pigs (n = 6) with similar body weight (m = 35-39 kg). After the intoduction of animal anesthesia, surgery was performed by access to the visceral veins (upper and lower mesenteric kidney, liver spleen andfemur), from which the Blood samples to determine the concentration of lactate, glucose, as well as indicators of acid-base status. Then placing the clamp on the aorta above the level of discharge of the celiac trunk. Blood sampling and laboratory diagnosis carried out twice: before clamping the aorta and blood flow before the start after 60 minutes of ischemia. Histological study intestinal tissue also conducted.

Results: It is shown that the aorta cross-clamping develops pronounced metabolic disorders, manifested in the form of increased levels of lactate and glucose concentrations in all investigated parts of the splanchnic region. The most pronounced increase in lactate after clamping the aorta was observed in the blood samples flowing from the intestine. The results of histological studies show that intestinal hypoperfusion leads to severe pathological changes, that is a predisposing factor leading to the translocation of bacterial agents into the systemic circulation, to the process of expression of systemic inflammatory response and a powerful oxidative stress.

Conclusion: Our experimental data show that when aortic clamping above the celiac trunk (ischemia mesenteric region) the greatest quantitative contribution to metabolic disorders the body of the animal created in a pathophysiological situation contributes to intestinal hypoperfusion. In this regard, one of the main tactics of the anaesthetist in the perioperative period should be the protection of the intestine against ischemia and its consequences.
