Neonates undergoing the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome are at higher risk of impaired systemic oxygen delivery with resultant brain, kidney, and intestinal ischemic injury, shock, and death. Complex developmental, anatomic, and treatment-related influences on cerebral and renal-somatic circulations make individualized treatment strategies physiologically attractive. Monitoring cerebral and renal circulations with near infrared spectroscopy can help drive rational therapeutic interventions. The primary aim of this study was to describe the differential effects of carbon dioxide tension on cerebral and renal circulations in neonates after the Norwood procedure. Using a prospectively-maintained database of postoperative physiologic and hemodynamic parameters, we analyzed the relationship between postoperative arterial carbon dioxide tension and tissue oxygen saturation and arteriovenous saturation difference in cerebral and renal regions, applying univariate and multivariate multilevel mixed regression techniques. Results were available from 7,644 h of data in 178 patients. Increases in arterial carbon dioxide tension were associated with increased cerebral and decreased renal oxygen saturation. Differential changes in arteriovenous saturation difference explained these effects. The cerebral circulation showed more carbon dioxide sensitivity in the early postoperative period, while sensitivity in the renal circulation increased over time. Multivariate models supported the univariate findings and defined complex time-dependent interactions presented graphically. The cerebral and renal circulations may compete for blood flow with critical limitations of cardiac output. The cerebral and renal-somatic beds have different circulatory control mechanisms that can be manipulated to change the distribution of cardiac output by altering the arterial carbon dioxide tension. Monitoring cerebral and renal circulations with near infrared spectroscopy can provide rational physiologic targets for individualized treatment.
