Off-pump surgery for the poor ventricle? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Severely decreased ejection-fraction is an established risk-factor for worse outcome after cardiac surgery. We compare outcomes of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) and on-pump CABG (ONCABG) in patients with severely compromised EF.

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

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
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

Time of day of cardiac surgery and postoperative outcomes in the UK: a secondary analysis of linked national datasets

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Uncertainty remains regarding whether the time of day that cardiac surgery is performed affects postoperative outcomes or if the observed variation can be explained by patient or surgical factors. Methods A secondary analysis of prospectively collected data was conducted to examine the association between time of cardiac surgery ...

Hemodynamics optimization during off-pump coronary artery bypass: the ‘no compression' technique [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objective: Heart manipulation during OPCAB may cause hemodynamical instability in particular for access to the posterior and lateral walls. The ‘no compression' technique involves enucleation of the heart without any compression on the cavities, and ...

The impact of coronary artery bypass grafting on the short‐ and long‐term development and progression of diabetic retinopathy: A Danish national matched cohort study

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a frequent long‐term complication of diabetes. While hemodynamic changes are known risk factors for DR, the effect of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) on the development of DR is poorly investigated.
