Conclusion

A commercially available catheter was used in a clinical trial of myocardial microdialysis. The myocardial lactate and pyruvate concentrations and the lactate-to-pyruvate ratio, as a sensitive marker of the myocardial redox status, showed profound changes in both off-pump and on-pump patients. These microdialysis data have to be interpreted in the context of a variety of clinical implications, and a great deal of effort needs to be invested to determine the precise role of microdialysis in CABG procedures and find whether it is possible to improve our clinical management of open heart surgery patients using this new technology.
