Effect of temperature of cardioplegic solution
This study tests the hypothesis that the efficacy of cardioplegic solution depends upon its chemical constituents rather than on its temperature alone. A standard preparation of right heart bypass in the dog was utilized. Left ventricular function curves were inscribed before and after 1 hour of aortic cross-clamping.

Single-Dose Del Nido Cardioplegia vs. Blood Cardioplegia in Aortic Valve Replacement Surgery [PDF]
Introduction: In this study, we aimed to compare Del Nido cardioplegia (DNC) with blood cardioplegia (BC) in aortic valve replacement. Methods: A two-year single-institute retrospective cohort study was accomplished.

The long saphenous vein is the most used conduit in cardiac surgery, but its long-term patency is limited by vein graft disease (VGD). Endothelial dysfunction is a key driver of VGD; its aetiology is multi-factorial.

Developmental differences in myocyte contractile response after cardioplegic arrest [PDF]
Although developmental differences in left ventricular function after cardioplegic arrest and rewarming have been postulated, whether differences exist at the level of the myocyte remains unexplored.

Solução cardioplégica polarizante: estado da arte Polarizing cardioplegic solution: state of the art
A exegese do termo cardioplegia remete aos significados de "lesão, golpe, ataque ou ferimento", bem diferente, portanto, do sentido em que o termo é empregado na maior parte dos centros de cirurgia cardíaca do Brasil e do mundo, ou seja, como ...

Restricting excessive cardiac action potential and QT prolongation: a vital role for IKs in human ventricular muscle [PDF]
Background - Although pharmacological block of the slow, delayed rectifier potassium current (I-Ks) by chromanol 293B, L-735,821, or HMR-1556 produces little effect on action potential duration (APD) in isolated rabbit and dog ventricular myocytes, the ...

Cardioplegic solution: A contamination crisis
Eleven patients were given varying doses of cardioplegic solution contaminated with Enterobacter cloacae. Five patients died. Early bleeding, necessitating reoperation, occurred in eight patients and a total of 126 units of blood and 203 units of platelets were given (range 2 to 19 and 15 to 47 units, respectively).

Comparison of Del Nido Cardioplegia and Blood Cardioplegia in Terms of Development of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Undergoing Isolated Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting [PDF]
Objective: Del Nido cardioplegia (DNC) has been used in pediatric cardiac surgery for many years with a single dose application and its usage in adult cardiac surgery has been increasing in recent years, with results being published.
