Rewarming for accidental hypothermia in an urban medical center using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Accidental hypothermia complicated by cardiac arrest carries a high mortality rate in urban areas. For moderate hypothermia cases conventional rewarming methods are usually adequate, however in severe cases extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest.

Annals of cardiothoracic surgery, 2013
Effective cerebral protection remains the principle concern during aortic arch surgery. Hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) is entrenched as the primary neuroprotection mechanism since the 70s, as it slows injury-inducing pathways by limiting cerebral metabolism. However, increases in HCA duration has been associated with poorer neurological outcomes,

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Organ damage evaluation in a temperature-controlled circulatory arrest rat model

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2022
Background Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) is commonly used in adult aortic surgery and pediatric complex congenital heart disease, and is associated with pathophysiological changes and postoperative complications.

CPB AND AORTIC SURGERY The state of the Art (From a Theoritical to a Practical Approach) [PDF]

, 2012
Background Despite recent improvements in prevention, medical treatment [1]and endovascular aortic repair , invasive surgery associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remains the best option of treatment for some patients.

Reduced cardiovascular mortality at moderate altitude: a putative role of physical activity and body mass

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Benefits of performing physical exercise at moderate altitude. At moderate altitude, increased resting metabolic rate and physical exertion promote physical fitness and exercise tolerance, whereas hypoxia suppresses appetite and elicits adaptations that increase tissue O2 delivery while augmenting O2‐independent ATP production ...

Reduction of Afterdrop by Using Active External Warming During Treatment of Accidental Hypothermia—A Randomized, Crossover Trial

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, Volume 70, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction This study investigates the impact of active external warming on afterdrop in simulated accidental hypothermia, compared to the effect of passive warming measures. Methods This study used data from a randomized crossover field study of experimental hypothermia.

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).

Antegrade cerebral protection in thoracic aortic surgery: lessons from the past decade [PDF]

, 2017
Objective: Prolonged deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) adversely affects outcome and quality of life in thoracic aortic surgery. Several techniques of antegrade cerebral perfusion are routinely used: bilateral selective antegrade cerebral ...

Rare Intraoperative Left Coronary Artery Dissection in Acute Type A Aortic Dissection: VA‐ECMO‐Assisted Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
We experienced a case of intraoperative coronary artery dissection that became apparent during weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass. This case demonstrates the successful management of cardiogenic shock secondary to intraoperative left coronary artery dissection using venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for beating‐heart coronary artery ...
