Preconditioning during warm blood cardioplegia [PDF]

European Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Surgery, 1997
Preconditioning describes the cardioprotective effects of multiple brief episodes of warm ischemia. The purpose of the study was to determine whether warm ischemia, during the intermittent delivery of warm blood cardioplegia, would induce preconditioning during cardioplegia arrest.Dogs, 15, were randomized to a preconditioning protocol or to serve as ...

Comparative Study between Bretschneider Cardioplegia and Warm Blood Cardioplegia on Myocardial Protection in Patients with Ischemic Mitral Regurgitation [PDF]

Al-Azhar International Medical Journal
Background: The ideal approach for myocardial preservation during ischemic cardiac arrest remains controversial. One dosage of cardioplegia for preservation of the myocardium is advocated in protracted surgeries.Aim: To explore the effects of ...

A comparative study between custodiol and warm blood cardioplegia in coronary artery bypass graft operation with poor left ventricular function

Journal of Medicine in Scientific Research, 2019
Background Cardioplegia is responsible for myocardial protection during open heart surgery. Cardioplegia was first presented as an agent for hypothermic hyperkalemic arrest.

Modified Del Nido “microplegia” reduces intraoperative, postoperative, and total blood productsCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Open
Objectives: Previous studies have shown that Buckberg microplegia reduces the need for intraoperative blood transfusion by minimizing hemodilution. However, this approach has been largely understudied in the context of Del Nido cardioplegia.

From Donor Liver to Recipient Pulmonary Artery: Embolization of a Transected Central Venous Catheter During Liver Transplantation, A Rare Complication of Organ Procurement

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Central venous catheters (CVCs) are essential in transplantation but can rarely fracture and embolize, with donor‐to‐recipient transmission of catheter fragments scarcely described. A 62‐year‐old woman with hepatitis C–related cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma underwent orthotopic liver transplantation from a brain‐dead donor with a left ...

Adding Blood to St Thomas Solution Does Not Improve Mortality in Pediatric Cardiac Surgery; A Meta-analysis of a Homogenous Population

The Annals of African Surgery, 2020
Background: Cardioplegia is the gold standard for providing ideal operating conditions while effecting myocardial protection. Some studies suggest that adding blood to St Thomas cardioplegia solution improves efficacy; this is generally accepted as true.

Myocardial protection with histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate solution in comparison with hypothermic hyperkalemic blood solution in the correction of acyanotic congenital heart diseases

Ain Shams Journal of Anesthesiology, 2022
Background Intraoperative myocardial preservation is essential in pediatric cardiac surgeries. The combination of hypothermia and hyperkalemic cardioplegia is commonly used.

A Rare Case of Complicated Kommerell's Diverticulum in a Middle‐Aged Woman

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Kommerell's Diverticulum is a rare vascular anomaly that can manifest as an anterior mediastinal mass. Considering its rarity and possible lethal complications, it is crucial to consider this abnormality when dealing with anterior mediastinal vascular lesions.

Pharmacological inhibition of hydroxysteroid 11‐beta dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐βHSD1) after myocardial infarction preserves cardiac function in a translational mini‐pig model

British Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 183, Issue 10, Page 2236-2255, May 2026.
Abstract Background and Purpose Plasma glucocorticoids increase acutely after MI, thereafter tissue levels are amplified selectively within cells expressing 11‐ßhydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11‐ßHSD1) that regenerates active glucocorticoids from circulating metabolites.
