Challenges in evaluating surgical innovation [PDF]

, 2009
Research on surgical interventions is associated with several methodological and practical challenges of which few, if any, apply only to surgery. However, surgical evaluation is especially demanding because many of these challenges coincide.

Postoperative Sleep Interventions and Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sleep disturbance is a common issue affecting nearly 78% of cardiothoracic postoperative patients. There are no systematic reviews of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluate the impact of sleep interventions within this population.

Octopus follow-up: 20 year prognosis in patients randomized to on-pump CABG, off-pump CABG or PCI

International Journal of Cardiology
The very long-term outcomes of off-pump versus on-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting (CABG) and Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) are largely unclear. We linked 20-years outcomes of two randomized trials to evaluate re-intervention and mortality outcomes for on-pump CABG, off-pump CABG and PCI.A data linkage project was performed using data as

Hemocompatibility and Long‐Term Outcomes in HeartWare Versus HeartMate II Versus HeartMate 3: Multicenter Real‐World Cohort

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
Multicenter real‐world cohort (n = 327) comparing LVADs: HeartMate 3 (HM3), HeartMate II (HMII), and HeartWare (HVAD). HM3 showed superior long‐term survival versus legacy devices, driven by fewer hemocompatibility‐related adverse events, especially pump thrombosis and ischemic stroke, while major bleeding was similar across devices.

Comparative Analysis of Pressure Drop (Δp): Hemodynamic Performance of Three Commercial Oxygenators During Cardiopulmonary Bypass

Artificial Organs, EarlyView.
In this prospective study, a total of 60 patients were divided into three groups of 20 to compare the pressure drop (Δp) across three different oxygenators during cardiopulmonary bypass. The aim of this comparison was to enable evidence‐based optimization of the heart‐lung machine setup in order to minimize potential influencing factors and thereby ...

Cardiovascular Health in Women—Across the Lifespan

Clinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of mortality and morbidity among women worldwide. However, CVD continues to be perceived as a predominantly male issue. CVD in women therefore remains understudied, underrecognized and undertreated.
