Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest in a Patient With Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2007h STEOGENESIS IMPERFECTA (OI) is an inherited disease of the connective tissue.1-4 Because the incidence of I in the general population is low, the literature on manageent of patients undergoing cardiac surgery and particularly eep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is scarce.

Charles Drew and the Origins of Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1997Convinced that the high risk of operation using the early heart-lung machines was due to a toxic effect of the oxygenators in use in the 1950s, Charles Drew of Westminster Hospital in London devised a circulatory support system in which the patient's own lungs functioned as the oxygenator.

Successful use of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest in pregnancy
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1994A woman pregnant for 21 weeks underwent an emergency operation because of an aortic arch aneurysm that had ruptured into her left lung. Cardiopulmonary bypass and deep hypothermia were used and she needed 37 minutes of circulatory arrest at a core temperature of 19 degrees C.

Aortic Surgery and Deep-Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest
Seminars in Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2014Aortic arch surgery has become increasingly complex, and novel surgical approaches have been utilized. Efforts aimed at improving neurological outcomes in this patient population have been numerous, with varying degrees of success. This article summarizes the anesthetic considerations for procedures on the aortic arch, including evidence-based ...

Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest for a Patient With Known Cold Agglutinins
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2009We report a case study of a patient with renal cell carcinoma with tumor extension into the right atrium. This case was complicated by the diagnosis of cold agglutinins and the need for deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. A collaborative approach yielded a positive outcome.

Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest in a Patient With Cold-Induced Urticaria
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2015Acquired cold urticaria is a condition characterized by the onset of pruritic hives, swelling, and occasional severe systemic reactions, during the rewarming phase, after cold exposure. Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) is a cardiac surgical procedure where organized thrombus is excised from the pulmonary vasculature in order to improve pulmonary ...

Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest Effectively Preserves Neurocognitive Function
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2013Few (conflicting) studies have quantitatively assessed neurocognitive effects of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA). We assess neurocognitive function quantitatively before and after DHCA in comparison with non-DHCA patients.Sixty-two aortic surgical patients underwent a battery of neuropsychometric tests, both preoperative and postoperative ...

Neurologic Sequelae Associated With Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1998Earlier studies of the incidence of neurologic disturbances after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest produced conflicting results. This article reviews the results of the Boston Circulatory Arrest Study, and another study undertaken to compare neurologic outcome in infants after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest using alpha-stat and pH-stat ...

Deep Hypothermic Circulatory Arrest: Real-Life Suspended Animation
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2013Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is a cerebral protection technique that was developed in the 1950s and popularized in the 1970s. It has become one of the three most common cerebral protection techniques currently used in aortic arch surgeries, with the other two being antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) and retrograde cerebral perfusion (RCP).

Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest: Current status and indications
Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery: Pediatric Cardiac Surgery Annual, 2002A number of groups have directed clinical and laboratory research efforts to define and delineate the limits of hypothermic circulatory arrest. The deleterious effects of cardiopulmonary bypass in small children are reviewed to place into historical perspective the impetus behind the development of hypothermic circulatory arrest.
