Plasma Pro-Atrial Natriuretic Peptide to Estimate Fluid Balance During Open and Robot-Assisted Esophagectomy Strandby et al. BMC Anesthesiology (2017) 17:20 DOI 10.1186/s12871-017-0314-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Plasma pro-atrial natriuretic peptide to estimate fluid balance during open and robot-assisted esophagectomy: a prospective observational study Rune Broni Strandby1*, Rikard Ambrus1, Niels H. Secher2, Jens Peter Goetze3, Michael Patrick Achiam1 and Lars Bo Svendsen1 Abstract Background: It remains debated how much fluid should be administered during surgery. The atrial natriuretic peptide precursor proANP is released by atrial distension and deviations in plasma proANP are reported associated with perioperative fluid balance. We hypothesized that plasma proANP would decrease when the central blood volume is compromised during the abdominal part of robot-assisted hybrid (RE) esophagectomy and that a positive fluid balance would be required to maintain plasma proANP. Methods: Patients undergoing RE (n = 25) or open (OE; n = 25) esophagectomy for gastroesophageal cancer were included consecutively in this prospective observational study. Plasma proANP was determined repetitively during esophagectomy to allow for distinction between the abdominal and thoracic part of the procedure. The RE group was 15° head up tilted during the abdominal procedure. Results: The blood loss was 250 (150–375) (RE) and 600 ml (390–855) (OE) (p = 0.01), but the two groups of patients were provided with a similar positive fluid balance: 1705 (1390–1983) vs. 1528 ml (1316–1834) (p = 0.4). However, plasma proANP decreased by 21% (p < 0.01) during the abdominal part of RE carried out during moderate head-up tilt, but only by 11% (p = 0.01) during OE where the patients were supine. Plasma proANP and fluid balance were correlated in the RE-group (r = 0.5 (0.073–0.840), p = 0.02) and tended to correlate in the OE group (r = 0.4 (−0.045–0.833), p = 0.08). Conclusion: The results support that plasma proANP decreases when the central blood volume is compromised and suggest that an about 2200 ml surplus administration of crystalloid is required to maintain plasma proANP during esophagectomy.

Arterial hypertension can be triggered by many factors, including physiological, genetic, and lifestyle causes. Specifically, molecules of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system not only play important roles in the control of blood pressure, but they are also associated with the genesis of arterial hypertension, thus constituting a need for pharmacological interventions. Chronic high pressure generates mechanical damage along the vascular system, heart, and kidneys, which are the principal organs affected in this condition.

  • Fluid Balance
    Fluid Balance What is fluid balance? Fluid balance is the recording of intake and output of fluid, and the balancing of them both. Why do we maintain fluid balance? To help aid a patient’s recovery by avoiding dehydration and other unwanted complications. How will we do it? Nurses will ask you regularly how much you have had to drink and will ask you to pass urine into a measuring pot so they can record the amount of fluid on your fluid chart. If you are having diarrhoea or vomiting, you may be also asked to provide a sample of this so the fluid loss can be accurately recorded and a specimen sent for testing. How can you help? Use the provided measuring pots and inform staff when you have passed urine, or if you have had any diarrhoea or vomiting. Please ask staff for additional measuring pots, if needed. If you require any further information, please speak to your nurse. Urine Colour Chart 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 There’s a saying that 1-3 is healthy wee, but 4-8 you need to hydrate! That’s true for many healthy individuals, but it may not be true for everyone. Some medications (including chemotherapy), certain foods or dyes in food can cause quite startling colours in urine including: brown, orange, pink, red, blue or green. Dark coloured urine may be ‘normal’ for people with liver or kidney problems and it may be that your doctor has advised you to strictly limit your fluid intake. BUT… If dark coloured urine is simply because you’re not drinking enough liquid or because of something you have eaten: Try to drink 2 litres (8-10 cups) per day

Downloaded from Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1985, 60, 614-620 Effect of varying water intake on renal function in healthy preterm babies M G COULTHARD AND E N HEY Department of Child Health, Princess Mary Maternity Hospital, Newcastle upon Tyne SUMMARY Renal control of water and electrolyte homeostasis was studied in 10 healthy babies (gestation 29 to 34 weeks; birthweight 1-19 to 2-19 kg) while water intake was varied. Glomerular filtration rate and urine flow were estimated daily from spot plasma and urine samples for six days using a constant inulin infusion, and simultaneous sodium, potassium, osmolar, and free water clearances were calculated. The infusion was started at an average age of 14 hours. Each baby received a total fluid intake of 96 ml/kg daily on study days 1, 2, and 5, and about 200 ml/kg on study days 3, 4, and 6. Daily sodium intake was kept constant at 3 mmollkg. At the end of the first study day the babies were undergoing a diuresis, but thereafter their estimated daily water balances remained stable regardless of intake. Glomerular filtration remained stable; alterations in urine flow reflected a change in the percentage of filtrate excreted. Plasma electrolytes and osmolality were stable throughout, and on study days 2 to 6 the urinary excretion rates of sodium, potassium, and other osmoles remained the same regardless of urine flow. The delivery of sodium to the distal tubule was estimated to be between 17 and 20% of the copyright.

Blood Work Blood Urea Nitrogen Creatinine Serum Electrolytes Hgb & Hct Serum Albumin Serum Osmolality Blood Urea Nitrogen: BUN: 5.0 – 25 mg/dL Urea is formed in the liver along with C02 as a waste by product of protein metabolism. It is carried by the blood and excreted by the renal system. Elevated BUN levels are significant for either increased protein catabolism or decreased renal excretion of urea. Situations, which would increase protein catabolism, include high protein diets, GI bleeding (protein from blood is broken down), DKA, burns and cancer. Any pre-renal (shock state, poor renal perfusion) or intra-renal failure (nephrotoxic medications or kidney diseases) will decrease the GFR and therefore urea excretion. The elevation of the metabolic waste products can cause fatigue, muscle weakness, and seizures. Volume status of the patient can also affect the BUN. Treatment is related to the cause of the elevation, which would include hydration, stopping protein catabolism, and/or dialysis. 187 Creatinine: 0.6 – 1.5 mg/dL slightly lower in females, children and elderly Creatinine is a waste product of creatinine phosphate breakdown. Creatinine phosphate is a high-energy compound found in skeletal muscle tissue and is released during muscle breakdown.
