Measurement and management of adult blood pressure in the peri‐operative period: updated guidelines from the Association of Anaesthetists and the British and Irish Hypertension Society

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Maintaining stable blood pressure during surgery is a key responsibility of anaesthetists. Peri‐operative omission and reintroduction of antihypertensive drugs, general anaesthesia, neuraxial and regional techniques can all cause significant fluctuations in blood pressure, particularly in patients with hypertension. Since the first

Pre‐operative anaemia, red blood cell transfusion and mortality after cardiac surgery: a Netherlands Heart Registration mediation analysis

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Pre‐operative anaemia is an established risk factor for mortality after cardiac surgery. The extent to which this risk is mediated by complications related to red blood cell transfusion remains uncertain, particularly across different age groups.

Time of day of cardiac surgery and postoperative outcomes in the UK: a secondary analysis of linked national datasets

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Uncertainty remains regarding whether the time of day that cardiac surgery is performed affects postoperative outcomes or if the observed variation can be explained by patient or surgical factors. Methods A secondary analysis of prospectively collected data was conducted to examine the association between time of cardiac surgery ...

Effects of pulsatile flow on postoperative recovery in adult cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass: A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

open access: yesHeliyon
Background: The role of pulsatile versus non-pulsatile flow during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is still in debate. This systematic review aimed to comprehensively assess the impact of pulsatile versus non-pulsatile flow on patients’ recovery.

Hydraulic In Vitro Characterization of MR‐Conditional Blood Pumps

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Cardiac surgery in neonates requires close placement of cardiopulmonary bypass machines due to limited blood volume, complicating MR compatibility. This study introduces three MR‐conditional blood pump prototypes. None interfered with MRI imaging, though RF‐related sensor effects remain untested.

Inflammatory Cytokines as Early Predictors of Weaning Failure From Extracorporeal Life Support

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Levels of IL‐8 and IL‐6 and their dynamics are reliable early predictors of ECLS weaning failure. ABSTRACT Background Weaning from extracorporeal life support (ECLS) in patients with refractory shock still remains a complex decision. Despite considerable advances in ECLS management, reliable biomarkers to predict weaning success are still not available.

Single‐Incision Anterolateral Thoracotomy for LVAD Implantation: A Novel Minimally Invasive Approach

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
A novel single‐incision anterolateral thoracotomy technique enables complete HeartMate 3 implantation without sternotomy, minimizing surgical trauma and accelerating recovery. This minimally invasive approach is feasible, safe, and may represent a new standard in advanced heart failure surgery.

Effects of albumin and crystalloid priming strategies on red blood cell transfusions in on-pump cardiac surgery: a network meta-analysis

open access: yesBMC Anesthesiology
Background In on-pump cardiac surgery, the albumin priming strategy could maintain colloid osmotic pressure better than crystalloid solutions and reduce excessive perioperative fluid balance.
