MULTIFACTORIAL INDEX OF CARDIAC RISK IN NONCARDIAC SURGICAL PROCEDURES

Survey of Anesthesiology, 1977
To determine which preoperative factors might affect the development of cardiac complications after major noncardiac operations, we prospectively studied 1001 patients over 40 years of age. By multivariate discriminant analysis, we identified nine independent significant correlates of life-threatening and fatal cardiac complications: preoperative third

Digital video recording of cardiac surgical procedures

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2004
We attempted to find a method of reducing time and effort for recording videos of cardiac surgical procedures.A camera mounting arm designed by us provided a properly fixed digital camera location for undisturbed recording. The camera and its remote control unit provided an opportunity for the surgeon to record only the steps of the operation without ...

Cardiac Surgical Procedures in Patients with Cirrhosis

2017
Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with higher mortality and morbidity in patients with cirrhosis. Child–Pugh (CP) classification and model for end-stage liver disease (MELD) score help stratify risk in patients who need cardiac surgery.

Predictors of ARF after cardiac surgical procedures

American Journal of Kidney Diseases, 2003
In a pilot study, a low preoperative serum ferritin level predicted increased risk for acute renal failure (ARF) after cardiopulmonary bypass. It was hypothesized that this may reflect a decreased ability to bind free iron and defend against oxidative stress. However, the pilot study was performed in a small number of patients (n = 30) operated on by a

Combined cardiac surgical procedures in octogenarians: operative outcome

Clinical Research in Cardiology, 2008
The number of patients with an indication for cardiac surgery in their ninth decade of life is increasing. This study analyses the single-center results with combined and redo cardiac surgical procedures in octogenarians retrospectively.Three groups were evaluated: (I) Two hundred and thirty six patients with combined cardiac surgical procedures, mean ...

A Risk-Benefit Assessment of Aprotinin in Cardiac Surgical Procedures

Drug Safety, 1998
Aprotinin, a naturally occurring serine protease inhibitor, has found widespread application during cardiac surgical procedures as a consequence of its ability to decrease blood loss and transfusion requirements. While its efficacy in a variety of clinical situations associated with increased risk of blood loss has been well established, at the same ...

Variables predicting reintubation after cardiac surgical procedures

open access: yesThe Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1999
This study sought to determine patient characteristics, processes of care, and intermediate outcomes as predictors of reintubation after cardiac surgical procedures.We performed a retrospective case-control study that included all patients undergoing cardiac surgical intervention who required reintubation and an equal number of control patients not ...
