A novel versatile concept of cardioplegia delivery in cardiac surgery: The ReverseTWO cardioplegia circuit system [PDF]

Nowadays, the necessity of having a cardioplegia circuit capable of being adapted in order to administer different types of cardioplegia is strategically fundamental, both for the perfusionist and for the cardiac surgeon.

Association between cardioplegia and postoperative atrial fibrillation in coronary surgery

, 2020
Objective: The aim of this multicenter study was to evaluated whether cold or warm cardioplegia are associated with postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) and the prognostic role of the latter on early stroke and neurological mortality.

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 ...

Preclinical 1H MRS Study of a Porcine Model Shows Evidence and Mechanisms for Acute Neuronal Injury in Neonatal Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) Surgery

Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 96, Issue 2, Page 557-567, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Congenital heart disease affects 1% of US births, with some infants requiring cardiothoracic surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Optimal surgical parameters to minimize neuronal injury are unknown. We used serial 1H MRS in a neonatal CPB porcine model to assess acute neuronal damage and associated injury mechanisms.

Hyperglycaemia‐induced reactive oxygen species production in cardiac ventricular myocytes differs among mammals

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 16, Page 6792-6816, 15 August 2026.
Abstract figure legend In rat and human adult ventricular myocytes, acute hyperglyceaemia (Glucose) causes increased glucose uptake (via GLUT) leading to O‐GlcNAcylation of CaMKII at Ser280, such that CaMKII activates NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) to increase cytosolic reactive oxygen species (ROS). That perturbs the ROS to Antioxidant (AntiOx) balance.

Comparative analysis of del Nido cardioplegia versus blood cardioplegia in isolate coronary artery bypass grafting

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background This study examined the efficacy of del Nido cardioplegia compared with traditional blood cardioplegia in adult cardiac surgery for isolated coronary artery bypass grafting by evaluating the early postoperative outcomes. Methods A total of 119

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.

Simultaneous Transvenous Lead Extraction and Intra‐Operative Epicardial Extravascular Defibrillator (EV‐ICD) Implantation During Tricuspid Valve Replacement

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Transvalvular device leads are undesirable following tricuspid valve replacement. Simultaneous lead extraction and intra‐operative EV‐ICD implantation can provide ongoing defibrillator therapy without crossing the prosthetic valve and may avoid the need for additional pacing hardware when atrioventricular conduction is preserved.

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.
