ABSTRACT Background The benefit of oral anticoagulation (OAC) in patients with new‐onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after coronary bypass grafting remains uncertain. The 2023 American Heart Association (AHA) and the American College of Cardiology (ACC) guidelines recommend 60 days of anticoagulation for POAF, whereas management was ...

Storage duration of platelet concentrates and clinical outcomes in cardiac surgery patients
Abstract Background The changes in platelet structure and function arising from its collection and storage are collectively called “platelet storage lesion.” In patients this might potentially be associated with impaired hemostasis and adverse events. We performed a hypothesis‐generating retrospective study in cardiac surgery patients transfused with ...

Acute alterations in blood lactate in the setting of transient stress induced myocardial ischaemia
Abstract An elevation in resting venous blood lactate ([La−]b) levels in conditions of myocardial hypoperfusion is associated with adverse prognosis and survival. This investigation aimed to assess changes in venous [La−]b levels induced by dobutamine stress in the presence and absence of myocardial ischaemia and adverse outcomes at 1 year.

EuroSCORE II: Current limitations and physiological gaps in risk stratification
Abstract Risk stratification remains critical in cardiac surgery, enabling clinicians to predict adverse outcomes and guide perioperative management. The European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation (EuroSCORE) II, introduced in 2011, incorporates 18 key variables to provide an evidence‐based approach to risk assessment.
