OBJECTIVE: Spinal cord ischemia (SCI) with paraplegia or paraparesis is a devastating complication of complex aortic repair (CAR). Treatment includes cerebrospinal fluid drainage, maintenance of hemoglobin concentration (>10 g/L), and elevating mean arterial blood pressure. Animal and human case series have reported improvements in SCI outcomes with hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT). We reviewed our center's experience with HBOT as a rescue treatment for spinal cord ischemia post-CAR in addition to standard treatment.
METHODS: A retrospective review of the University Health Network's Hyperbaric Medicine Unit treatment database identified HBOT sessions for patients with SCI post-CAR between January 2013 and June 2021. Mean estimates of overall motor function scores were determined for postoperative, pre-HBOT, post-HBOT (within 4 hours of the final HBOT session), and at the final assessment (last available in-hospital evaluation) using a linear mixed model. A subgroup analysis compared the mean estimates of overall motor function scores between improvement and non-improvement groups at given timepoints. Improvement of motor function was defined as either a ≥2 point increase in overall muscle function score in patients with paraparesis or an upward change in motor deficit categorization (para/monoplegia, paraparesis, and no deficit). Subgroup analysis was performed by stratifying by improvement or non-improvement of motor function from pre-HBOT to final evaluation.
RESULTS: Thirty patients were treated for SCI. Pre-HBOT, the motor deficit categorization was 10 paraplegia, three monoplegia, 16 paraparesis, and one unable to assess. At the final assessment, 14 patients demonstrated variable degrees of motor function improvement; eight patients demonstrated full motor function recovery. Seven of the 10 patients with paraplegia remained paraplegic despite HBOT. The estimated mean of overall muscle function score for pre-HBOT was 16.6 ± 2.9 (95% confidence interval [CI], 10.9-22.3) and for final assessment was 23.4 ± 2.9 (95% CI, 17.7-29.1). The estimated mean difference between pre-HBOT and final assessment overall muscle function score was 6.7 ± 3.1 (95% CI, 0.6-16.1). The estimated mean difference of the overall muscle function score between pre-HBOT and final assessment for the improved group was 16.6 ± 3.5 (95% CI, 7.5-25.7) vs -4.9 ± 4.2 (95% CI, -16.0 to 6.2) for the non-improved group.
CONCLUSIONS: HBOT, in addition to standard treatment, may potentially improve recovery in spinal cord function following SCI post-CAR. However, the potential benefits of HBOT are not equally distributed among subgroups.
