title: [A case of emergency coronary artery bypass graft for the patient using chronic hemodialysis, where in blood volume was measurable in the perioperative period].
abstract: An emergency coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) was given to a 66 year-old patient due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Circulating blood volume (BV) was measured to study in the perioperative period. Three coronary artery bypasses were made under cardiopulmonary bypass, being managed by ultrafiltration when the pump-oxygenator was in action and by peritoneal dialysis in the early postoperative period. Preoperative BV reduced immediately after the operation. It showed an increasing trend 4 hours after the operation, but after that BV reduced from that before the operation while water balance was kept positive. Cardiac output after the operation was higher than before. It suggested that in this patient using hemodialysis BV levels turned to be lower compared with that before the operation, as excessive water leaked out of the blood vessel, although water balance was kept positive due to improved cardiac functions after the operation.
