ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Patients with diabetes undergoing CABG are at risk of wound infection. Incisional negative pressure wound therapy has been shown to be effective in decreasing incidence of infection in high-risk wounds. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) can be used to assess wound oxygenation and low values can predict infection.

OBJECTIVES:

To evaluate utility of NIRS to assess wound oxygenation, to assess effect of sternotomy, left internal thoracic artery harvest, and wound dressing type on wound edge oxygenation.

METHODS:

In this blinded randomized control trial, patients with diabetes undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting with a left internal thoracic artery were randomized to receive either incisional negative pressure wound therapy dressing or a standard dressing. NIRS measurements were made on the left upper arm (control), and left and right parasternal regions on day -1 (preoperative), day 5, and week 6 after surgery. Results were analyzed using repeated measures parametric methods.

RESULTS:

Eighty patients with diabetes were recruited, 40 to the incisional negative pressure wound therapy group and 40 to the standard dressing group. Adjusted NIRS readings dropped significantly in all patients by day 5 and partially recovered by week 6. In both groups, there was no difference between readings on the left and right. At all time points and on both sides, there was no difference in readings between patients in the 2 groups.

CONCLUSIONS:

NIRS can be used to assess oxygenation adjacent to a sternotomy wound. Adjusted tissue oxygen levels change with time after sternotomy and left internal thoracic artery harvest in patients with diabetes. Wound dressing type does not influence day 5 wound edge oxygenation.
