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.

Severe Vasoplegic Syndrome Treated with Angiotensin II and Hemoadsorption Therapy after Cardiac Surgery

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is a common complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The main pathophysiology mechanism of VS includes a systemic inflammatory response syndrome due to surgical trauma, release of pro‐inflammatory mediators caused by blood contact with foreign surfaces of heart‐lung machine (pump and tubing)

Target blood pressure management during cardiopulmonary bypass improves lactate levels after cardiac surgery: a randomized controlled trial

BMC Anesthesiology, 2021
Background Hyperlactatemia is associated with a poor prognosis in cardiac surgery patients. This study explored the impact of target blood pressure management during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on blood lactate levels after cardiac surgery.

Levosimendan for patients with severely reduced left ventricular systolic function and/or low cardiac output syndrome undergoing cardiac surgery. a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Previous studies have shown beneficial effects of levosimendan in high-risk patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Two large randomized controlled trials (RCTs), however, showed no advantages of levosimendan.

Cardiopulmonary bypass in pregnancy

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2014
Cardiac surgery carried out on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in a pregnant woman is associated with poor neonatal outcomes although maternal outcomes are similar to cardiac surgery in non-pregnant women. Most adverse maternal and fetal outcomes from cardiac surgery during pregnancy are attributed to effects of CPB.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation in a Ross Procedure Patient With Severe Autograft Regurgitation: A Case Report

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Surgical aortic valve replacement (AVR) is the standard treatment for symptomatic severe neo‐aortic regurgitation in Ross patients. The only previous report of a transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) in a Ross patient required valve‐in‐valve rescue. Thus, this is the first uncomplicated TAVI procedure in a Ross patient.

Salvage resection of advanced mediastinal tumors [PDF]

, 2019
The surgical treatment of locally advanced mediastinal tumors invading the great vessels and other nearby structures still represent a tricky question, principally due to the technical complexity of the resective phase, the contingent need to carry out

Perventricular Device Closure of Native Congenital Muscular Ventricular Septal Defects in Small Infants   $\hspace{0.17em}$ ≤ 5 kg: Single‐Center Study of the Risk Factors for Failure of the Intervention and Non‐Optimal Outcome

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Perventricular device closure of muscular VSD in small infants is a less invasive option than surgical closure under cardiopulmonary bypass and offers better outcomes than palliative pulmonary artery banding. However, the specific risk factors that could affect procedural success and optimal outcomes have not been ...

Post-pericardiectomy ECMO for constrictive pericarditis: a case series and literature review

BMC Anesthesiology
Background Pericardiectomy is the curative treatment for constrictive pericarditis, yet postoperative low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) may occur. The application of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in post-pericardiectomy ...
