Predictors of low cardiac output syndrome after combined mitral and tricuspid valve surgery [PDF]
IntroductionLow cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is a common complication in cardiac surgery, and we evaluated the incidence of its early occurrence after mitral and tricuspid combined cardiac surgery and its associated risk factors.Material and ...

Daytime variation of in-hospital mortality and low cardiac output syndrome after pediatric cardiac surgery-a retrospective cohort study [PDF]
Objective Recent studies suggest that adult cardiac surgery performed in the morning increases the risk of major adverse cardiac events, but it is unclear whether this association exists in pediatric cardiac surgery. This study aimed to determine whether

Preoperative Glycemic Status in Elective Cardiac Surgery Procedures: HbA1c Independently Predicts Low Cardiac Output Syndrome and Mortality [PDF]
Background: The prognostic value of preoperative hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery remains uncertain. This study investigated the association between preoperative HbA1c levels and the risk of postoperative low cardiac output ...

Preservation of renal function in cardiac surgery patients with low cardiac output syndrome: levosimendan vs beta agonists [PDF]
Background Some studies have been performed to assess the effects of levosimendan on cardiac function when administered to cardiac surgery patients with low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) in the immediate postoperative period.

Predictors of Post Pericardiotomy Low Cardiac Output Syndrome in Patients With Pericardial Effusion [PDF]
Introduction: Pathological involvement of pericardium by any disease that resulting in effusion may require decompression and pericardiectomy. The current article describes rare patients with effusion who after pericadiectomy and transient hemodynamic ...

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy after Elective Aortic and Mitral Valve Replacement [PDF]
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a syndrome characterized by transient acute left ventricular dysfunction, electrocardiographic changes that can mimic acute myocardial infarction and minimal release of myocardial enzymes in the absence of obstructive coronary
