title: [Preoperative evaluation of the probability of postpericardiotomy syndrome occurrence].
abstract: 36 women (43%) and 40 men (53%) (total 76) before cardiac surgery underwent the study. The average age was 50 +/- 12,62. The postpericardiotomy syndrome (PPS) was observed in 44 patients (58%). Statistically significant higher mean level CD8 lymphocytes was preoperatively stated in non-PPS patients in comparison with PPS ones (12 PPS pts-38% v.s. 4 non-PPS-9%; p < 0.01). The ratio CD4 to CD8 exceed 1.6 in group of 25 patients (57%) with PPS and only in 9 patients (28%) without PPS (p < 0.05). CD4/CD8 ratio > 1.6 and increased level of lymphocytes with transferrin receptors was more often observed in PPS patients (18 pts; 41%) in comparison with non-PPS ones (3 pts; 9%). The existence of preoperative antimyocardial antibodies did not effect on the higher risk of PPS.
