Abstract
Paediatric cardiac surgery often requires cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during the surgical intervention. CPB is known to elicit a systemic inflammatory response with activation of the complement and coagulation systems, stimulation of cytokine production, cellular entrapment in organs, neutrophil activation with degranulation, platelet activation, and endothelial dysfunction. These changes are associated with a risk of postoperative organ dysfunction and increased morbidity and mortality in the postoperative period. Clinical studies have concentrated on measurement of inflammatory markers and mediators in peripheral blood, where the systemic inflammatory response in the paediatric cardiac patient seems to be different from the adult case. Looking at the organ level, experimental studies have the advantage of providing information contributing to a better understanding of the pathological events that may lead to the deteriorated organ function. This review focuses on the systemic inflammatory response after cardiac surgery with CPB in children and experimental CPB models.Keywords
