Perioperative transesophageal echocardiography for non-cardiac surgery [PDF]
The use of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) has evolved to include patients undergoing high-risk non-cardiac procedures and patients with significant cardiac disease undergoing non-cardiac surgery. Implementation of basic TEE education in training programs has increased across a broad spectrum of procedures in the perioperative arena.

Coronary artery stents and non-cardiac surgery [PDF]
The utility of interventional cardiology has developed significantly over the last two decades with the introduction of coronary angioplasty and stenting, with the associated antiplatelet medications. Acute coronary stent occlusion carries a high morbidity and mortality, and the adoption of therapeutic strategies for prophylaxis against stent ...

The feasibility and applications of non-invasive cardiac output monitoring, thromboelastography and transit-time flow measurement in living-related renal transplantation surgery : results of a prospective pilot observational study [PDF]
Introduction: Delayed graft function (DGF) remains a significant and detrimental postoperative phenomenon following living-related renal allograft transplantation, with a published incidence of up to 15%. Early therapeutic vasodilatory interventions have

Non-cardiac surgery in the heart failure patient [PDF]
In this era of increasingly procedural cardiology, many physicians regard the cognitive exercise of preoperative evaluation for non-cardiac surgery as an onerous task. In reality, the preoperative period affords a window of opportunity for the consulting cardiologist to minimise surgical risk by maximising medical treatment, directing appropriate ...
