Abstract

Naresuan University Hospital has designed a new modified ultrafiltration circuit, but the effect on patients  has not been studied. The objective of this retrospective study was to compare the effectiveness of using  ultrafiltration circuit in patients undergoing open-heart surgery between group of 55 people using the  modified ultrafiltration circuit and group of 55 people using simplified ultrafiltration circuit from January, 2015 to December, 2016. Data were analyzed with chi-square, independent t, and Mann Whitney U tests. The  results showed that personal data and clinical data were not different, except for the type of acquired heart  surgery in group used the modified ultrafiltration circuit has a number of isolated CABG surgery patients more than group used the simplified ultrafiltration circuit with statistically significant. As for surgical data,  fluid removal, and fluid requirement data, postoperative data and postoperative complications were not  different, but the modified ultrafiltration circuit has the advantage of being easy to install, cheap and suitable for both pediatric and adult patients, reduce the risk of air embolism. There are many ultrafiltration circuit techniques, it is important to choose the right method of ultrafiltration circuit on the right patient for the greatest benefit to the patient.
