Effect of Four Crystalloid Cardioplegias on Immature Rabbit Hearts During Global Ischaemia

Asian Journal of Surgery, 2006
Controversy surrounds the reported beneficial effects of crystalloid cardioplegic solutions in the immature myocardium. In the present study, we investigated the efficacy of four clinical cardioplegic solutions in the immature myocardium to determine if ...

Modulation of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics in the Isolated Guinea Pig Beating Heart by Potassium and Lidocaine Cardioplegia: Implications for Cardioprotection [PDF]

, 2009
Mitochondria are damaged by cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury but can contribute to cardioprotection. We tested if hyperkalemic cardioplegia (CP) and lidocaine (LID) differently modulate mitochondrial (m) bioenergetics and protect hearts against ...

Adequate distribution of warm cardioplegic solution [PDF]

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1995
Seventy-five patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting were randomized to receive warm antegrade (N = 25), warm retrograde (N = 25), or a combination of warm antegrade and retrograde (N = 25) delivery of blood cardioplegic solution. Myocardial oxygen utilization, lactate and acid metabolism, and adenine nucleotides and their degradation ...

Restricting excessive cardiac action potential and QT prolongation: a vital role for IKs in human ventricular muscle [PDF]

, 2005
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 ...

Solução cardioplégica polarizante: estado da arte Polarizing cardioplegic solution: state of the art

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2005
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 ...

Cardioplegic solution: A contamination crisis

The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1986
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).

Topical use of antifibrinolytic agents reduces postoperative bleeding: a double-blind, prospective, randomized study [PDF]

, 2007
Objective: Postoperative bleeding is still one of the most common complications of cardiac surgery. Antifibrinolytic agents successfully reduce bleeding, but there are controversies concerning adverse effects after their systemic use.
