Assessment of cardiac risk in noncardiac surgery [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Cardiology, 1995
AbstractSurgical techniques have been refined so that complications directly resulting from surgical procedures are relatively small. However, with the high prevalence of coronary artery disease in the United States, many surgical patients have concomitant coronary artery disease.

Predicting Coronary Occlusion Risk during Redo‐TAVR at First TAVR: Asymmetric Calcification Causes Failure

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, Volume 107, Issue 6, Page 1692-1700, May 1, 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Predicting coronary artery occlusion due to sinus sequestration (SS) during a second transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) procedure using pre‐procedural computed tomography (CT) after the first TAV replacement (TAVR) is underreported.

Bivalirudin started during emergency transport for primary PCI. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Bivalirudin, as compared with heparin and glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, has been shown to reduce rates of bleeding and death in patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).

Exploratory Laparotomy After Routine Cardiac Surgery: Results From 17,000 Patients

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 1221-1227, May 2026.
Exploratory laparotomy is rare after open‐heart surgery, and it was performed for gastrointestinal complications that occurred in the context of other severe postoperative complications. Several factors were associated with the need for exlap, including increasing age, pre‐existing renal and vascular disease, and pre‐ and post‐operative shock. ABSTRACT

Prognostic capabilities of coronary computed tomographic angiography before non-cardiac surgery: Prospective cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objectives To determine if coronary computed tomographic angiography enhances prediction of perioperative risk in patients before non-cardiac surgery and to assess the preoperative coronary anatomy in patients who experience a myocardial infarction after

Myocardial oxygen consumption, myocardial efficiency, and mechanical efficiency: A review across pathologic and physiologic states

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, May 2026.
Abstract Myocardial work and oxygen consumption (MVO2) are tightly coupled. The patient's physiological state, presence of disease, heart rate, and microvascular control of oxygen delivery all combine to maintain this relationship. The myocardial efficiency (MyoEff) of the heart is determined by the ratio of stroke‐work (SW) divided by MVO2, whereas ...

Postoperative Delirium in the Oldest–Old: Parallel Analyses of Institutional and National Surgical Cohorts

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study compared factors associated with postoperative delirium (POD) among the oldest–old surgical patients (aged ≥ 75 years) in a national US cohort (ACS‐NSQIP) and a single‐center Taiwanese cohort (TMUH). Among clinically evaluated patients, POD was associated with higher ASA physical status, abnormal serum albumin levels, and abnormal white ...

Statin intensity and postoperative mortality following open repair of intact abdominal aortic aneurysm. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BackgroundThere is a lack of evidence for the association between intensive statin therapy and outcomes following vascular surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between perioperative statin intensity and in-hospital mortality ...

Adverse Hemodynamics in Kommerell's Diverticulum: A Comparative Case Report Linking Oscillatory Shear Index to Aortic Dissection

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Hemodynamic evaluation using four‐dimensional flow magnetic resonance imaging or computational fluid dynamics can identify a high‐risk phenotype in Kommerell's diverticulum, which is characterized by intradiverticular vortex formation, low wall shear stress, and elevated oscillatory shear index (OSI).
