Rationale for implementation of warm cardiac surgery in pediatrics

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2016
Cardiac surgery was developed thanks to the introduction of hypothermia and cardiopulmonary bypass in the early 1950s. The deep hypothermia protective effect has been essential to circulatory arrest complex cases repair.

A Multidisciplinary Approach to the Anesthetic Management of Patients With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is an inherited neuromuscular disorder with multisystem involvement that causes progressive muscular weakness and cardiorespiratory dysfunction. The first comprehensive recommendations regarding anesthetic management are now almost 20 years old and, in the interval, DMD care has evolved.

Methylene blue for postcardiopulmonary bypass vasoplegic syndrome: A cohort study

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2017
Background: Methylene blue (MB) has been used to treat refractory hypotension in a variety of settings. Aims: We sought to determine whether MB improved blood pressure in postcardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) vasoplegic syndrome (VS) in a complex cardiac ...

Rapid Diagnosis and Surgical Management of Catastrophic Stanford Type A Acute Aortic Dissection Resulting in Successful Lung Donation: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT This case highlights that rapid diagnosis and emergency surgical repair for catastrophic Stanford Type A acute aortic dissection may preserve the opportunity for successful lung donation even when neurological recovery is impossible. Transthoracic echocardiography played a critical role in establishing the diagnosis when computed tomography ...

Serum C1q as a Novel Predictive Biomarker for Postoperative Delirium After Acute Type A Aortic Dissection

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background This study aimed to evaluate the predictive value of C1q (complement activation regulatory factor) for the occurrence of postoperative delirium (POD) following surgery for acute aortic dissection. Methods We prospectively included patients undergoing surgery for aortic dissection. Serum levels of C1q were measured preoperatively and

Selective cerebral perfusion with 4-branch graft total aortic arch replacement: Outcomes in 12 patients

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery, 2012
Background Aortic arch reconstruction is associated with high neurological morbidity. Our purpose is to describe our experience using a 4-branched graft and selective antegrade brain perfusion (SABP) for total aortic arch replacement (TAR).

Hypothermic Oxygenated Perfusion Versus Static Cold Storage in Liver Transplantation: A Meta‐ Analysis of Randomized Trials

Clinical Transplantation, Volume 40, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (HOPE) is an alternative to static cold storage (SCS) for liver graft preservation, aiming to reduce ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) and improve post‐transplant outcomes. Methods We systematically reviewed randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing HOPE with SCS in adult liver ...

Periestropause enhances hypoxia‐induced panic and microglial remodelling without altering respiratory control

Journal of Neuroendocrinology, Volume 38, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Perimenopause is characterised by irregular reproductive cycles and hormonal fluctuations, notably decreased estradiol (E2), which are linked to increased susceptibility to panic disorder and neuroinflammation. We examined whether panic‐related respiratory and behavioural responses to respiratory challenges vary across reproductive stages ...
