Neuroprotective effects of erythropoietin during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest☆ [PDF]
Permanent mild-to-severe brain injury with neurologic sequelae remains a significant source of postoperative morbidity in cardiovascular surgery. There is increasing evidence that erythropoietin confers neuroprotective effects in various conditions of neuronal damage, such as hypoxia and cerebral ischaemia.

Proteção cerebral durante parada circulatória total a 28°C
As operações de aneurismas do arco aórtico dependem do tempo de parada circulatória hipotérmica total (PCH). Diversas técnicas têm sido propostas para melhorar a proteção do cérebro e estender o tempo seguro de isquemia (45 minutos em hipotermia profunda)

Neuropsychologic outcome after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest in adults [PDF]
Pediatric patients undergoing prolonged periods of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest have been found to experience long-term deficits in cognitive function. However, there is limited information of this type in adult patients who are undergoing deep hypothermic circulatory arrest for thoracic aortic repairs.One hundred forty-nine patients undergoing ...

Risk assessment of renal and neurological complications in newborn after aortic reconstruction
Introduction. Optimal cerebral and visceral protection is crucial in aortic arch surgery. The main method for this protection has traditionally been deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. Recently, antegrade cerebral perfusion with moderate hypothermia has

Role of calcium desensitization in the treatment of myocardial dysfunction after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest [PDF]
Introduction Rewarming from deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) produces calcium desensitization by troponin I (cTnI) phosphorylation which results in myocardial dysfunction.

Falsely elevated bispectral index during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest [PDF]
A 2-month-old infant underwent repair of a ventricular septal defect under deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. Bispectral index and EEG suppression ratio were evaluated using an Aspect BIS monitor. Erroneous readings from the monitor could have led to a potentially dangerous alteration in surgical and anaesthetic management.
