PERIOPERATIVE USE OF LEVOSIMENDAN IN PATIENTS WITH SEVERE LEFT VENTRICULAR DYSFUNCTION UNDERGOING CARDIAC SURGERY: A SYSTEMATIC REVIEW AND META-ANALYSIS [PDF]
Background: Levosimendan is a calcium-sensitizing ionodilator. However, the current level of clinical evidence is insufficient to determine the clinical value of levosimendan in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction subjected to cardiac ...

Euvolemic off pump coronary surgery further improves early postoperative outcomes
Background: Fluid resuscitation during Off-Pump Coronary Surgery (OPCABG) is still not protocolized and depends on multiple variables. We are exploring in this study whether a restrictive or euvolemic approach has any impact on short term surgical ...

Comparison of Levosimendan, Milrinone and Dobutamine in treating Low Cardiac Output Syndrome Following Valve Replacement Surgeries with Cardiopulmonary Bypass [PDF]
Introduction: Low Cardiac Output Syndrome (LCOS) following Cardiopulmonary Bypass (CPB) is common and associated with increased mortality. Maintenance of adequate cardiac output is one of the primary objectives in management of such patients. Aim: To

Early Findings after Implementation of Veno-Arteriovenous ECMO: A Multicenter European Experience
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is increasingly used to treat cardiopulmonary failure in critically ill patients. Peripheral cannulation may be complicated by a persistent low cardiac output in case of veno-venous cannulation (VV-ECMO) or by ...
