| Abstract: |
| Mild hypothermia (32 to 35 degC) during surgery is common [1] and is associated with more bleeding, increased transfusion requirement and poorer outcome [2-4]. While inhibition of the coagulation cascade is known to occur with hypothermia [5] and may contribute to these changes, hypothermia also induces platelet dysfunction which can accentuate this problem. The underlying mechanism of hypothermia-induced platelet dysfunction remains poorly understood. In vitro studies showed impaired platelet aggregation and adhesion under mild hypothermia [6]. Moreover, shed blood thromboxane A2 from bleeding time wound is diminished and the rise in p-selectin expression on platelet surface is obtunded [7,8]. Nevertheless, there are also some conflicting results showing that hypothermia may lead to enhanced platelet activation [9,10]. Such platelet dysfunction is reversible when normal body temperature is restored [11,12], but this is not always achievable or desirable. Hypothermia occurs in 5 to 10% of multiple trauma patients at admission [13,14]. It may not be rapidly reversible, particularly in those who require massive infusion of fluids and blood products. The incidence of hypothermia actually increases to over 70% when the trauma patients receive emergency surgery [15]. Restoration of normothermia may not be desirable in some patients as induced hypothermia has been shown to improve patient outcome after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation [16] and has become the recommended treatment in selected patients [17]. Induced hypothermia is also useful in the intensive care unit [18] and in neurosurgery [19]. Desmopressin (1-deamino-8-D-arginine vasopressin, DDAVP), the synthetic analogue of vasopressin, was first used to treat cranial diabetes insipidus. Later, it was found that desmopressin elevates circulating coagulation factor (F)VIII, von Willebrand factor (vWF) and tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) in patients who suffer from hemophilia A and von Willebrand disease [20]. Since then, it remains the treatment of choice for these congenital bleeding disorders [21]. Desmopressin can also correct certain acquired bleeding disorders, such as patients with uremia and liver cirrhosis [22,23]. However, the effect of desmopressin on platelet dysfunction due to hypothermia is still unknown. We have therefore designed this study to investigate the effects of different doses of desmopressin on hypothermia-induced platelet dysfunction. Platelet function will be measured by the PFA-100® system, which is a relatively new technique that simulates primary hemostasis using whole blood [24,25]. 1 Sessler DI.
