Objective To analyze the significance of application of pulse indicated continuous cardiac output (PICCO) as hemodynamic monitoring for low cardiac output patients after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) operation. Method  We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 110 patients conducted non-extracorporeal circulation CABG operation in Beijing Anzhen Hospital between June 2013 and October 2014. The patient were divided into two groups including a PICCO applied group and a non-PICCO applied group. There were 49 patients including 29 males and 20 females at average age of 60.80±9.34 years in the PICCO group. There were 61 patients with 37 males and 24 females at age of 62.22±10.41 years in the non-PICCO group. We compared the treatment effects between the two groups. Results Comparing to the non-PICCO group, the PICCO group had shorter average days of postoperative intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) usage (t=2.155, P=0.039), less usage rate of endotracheal reintubation (χ2=5.098, P=0.039), shorter average postoperative mechanical ventilation time (t=2.087, P=0.044), less occurrence rate of cardiac arrhythmia (χ2=4.011, P=0.045), less occurrence rate of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) (χ2=5.075, P=0.035), shorter days in ICU (t=2.141, P=0.040) and in-hospital time (t=2.061 P=0.048). During monitoring, the PICCO group had slower average heart rate, higher average arterial pressure, lower blood lactate, greater oxygenation and greater left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) than those in the non-PICCO group. Conclusion The application of PICCO reduces occurrence of postoperative complications for low cardiac output patients with post coronary artery bypass grafting operation, increases cure rate.
