Rationale for implementation of warm cardiac surgery in pediatrics
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.

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.

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 ...

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

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 ...

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 ...
