The underlying causes of post-CPB coagulopathy and the factors associated with its occurrence are not yet fully understood. This study assesses platelet and fibrinogen concentration and function following CPB in children with congenital heart diseases (CHD).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We analyzed prospective data from 104 patients aged 0\u201316 years who underwent CPB surgery for CHD. Blood samples were collected before surgery and within 30\u2005min of CPB completion. In addition to usual coagulation tests, functional analyses were performed using point of care systems with thromboelastometry and impedance aggregometry.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Platelet count, fibrinogen concentration, and platelet and fibrinogen activities significantly decreased after CPB. The duration of CPB was directly associated with a reduction in platelet count and fibrinogen level (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009\u22120.38, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001; <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009\u22120.21, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.03, respectively), but not with their measured activity. Postoperative percentages of baseline values for platelet count (58.36% [43.34\u201374.44] vs. 37.44% [29.81\u201354.17], <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001) and fibrinogen concentration (73.68% [66.67\u201382.35] vs. 65.22% [57.89\u201370.83], <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001) were significantly higher in patients who did not experience hypothermia during surgery. Age was inversely associated with the decrease in platelet count (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.63, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001), TRAPTEM AUC (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.43, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001), fibrinogen concentration (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.44, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001) and FIBTEM MCF (<jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.57, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&amp;lt;\u20090.001).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Post-CPB coagulopathy is multifactorial and not solely attributed to hemodilution. It also involves functional changes in coagulation cascade components, which can be demonstrated by thromboelastometry and impedance aggregometry. Young children, patients requiring prolonged CPB surgery, or those experiencing hypothermia are particularly affected.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fped.2024.1453182","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,18]],"date-time":"2024-09-18T12:32:52Z","timestamp":1726662772000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Quantitative and functional changes in platelets and fibrinogen following cardiopulmonary by-pass in children"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Margherita","family":"Plebani","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Longchamp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Pauline","family":"Lauwers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stefano","family":"Di Bernardo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maria-Helena","family":"Perez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1965","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,9,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"B1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1126","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1460-9592.2007.02265.x","article-title":"Aspects of bleeding after cardiac surgery in children","volume":"17","author":"McEwan","year":"2007","journal-title":"Paediatr Anaesth"},{"key":"B2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"631","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jtcvs.2013.10.050","article-title":"Early postoperative bleeding is independently associated with increased surgical mortality in infants after cardiopulmonary bypass","volume":"148","author":"Wolf","year":"2014","journal-title":"J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg"},{"key":"B3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"2112","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jtcvs.2017.12.038","article-title":"Validation of a definition of excessive postoperative bleeding in infants undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass","volume":"155","author":"Bercovitz","year":"2018","journal-title":"J Thorac Cardiovasc Surg"},{"key":"B4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1407","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pcl.2013.08.003","article-title":"Developmental hemostasis: clinical implications from the fetus to the adolescent","volume":"60","author":"Jaffray","year":"2013","journal-title":"Pediatr Clin North Am"},{"key":"B5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"94","DOI":"10.1055\/s-0039-1700517","article-title":"Platelet function changes during neonatal cardiopulmonary bypass surgery: mechanistic basis and lack of correlation with excessive bleeding","volume":"120","author":"Zwifelhofer","year":"2020","journal-title":"Thromb Haemost"},{"key":"B6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"541","DOI":"10.1016\/0003-4975(92)90451-9","article-title":"Coagulation defects in neonates during cardiopulmonary bypass","volume":"54","author":"Kern","year":"1992","journal-title":"Ann Thorac Surg"},{"key":"B7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"865","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1460-9592.2011.03524.x","article-title":"Correlations between global clotting function tests, duration of operation, and postoperative chest tube drainage in pediatric cardiac surgery","volume":"21","author":"Hayashi","year":"2011","journal-title":"Pediatr Anesth"},{"key":"B8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"852","DOI":"10.1111\/aor.13912","article-title":"Cardiopulmonary bypass-induced coagulopathy in pediatric patients: the role of platelets in postoperative bleeding.
