REGULATION OF PULMONARY RESISTANCE DURING CARDIOPULMONARY PRESERVATION
Transplantation, 1992To characterize the neural and vasoactive mediators of pulmonary vasoconstriction and determine whether the beneficial effect of isoproterenol could be mimicked by other agents that increase cyclic adenosine monophosphate, heart and lung organ blocks were harvested from calves and studied in a normothermic autoperfusion circuit.

Pulmonary Hypertension in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction
Cardiology Clinics, 2022Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a common medical condition associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Through different mechanisms, including passive left-sided congestion and/or vasculopathy, patients with HFpEF can develop pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Mainstream bronchial sleeve resection with pulmonary preservation
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1996Resection of a mainstem bronchus with pulmonary preservation is a therapeutic option when disease is limited to the mainstem bronchus. We reviewed our experience with this procedure to determine the operative morbidity, mortality, and long-term outcome.From January 1965 through January 1995, 22 patients (13 male, 9 female) underwent circumferential ...

Overview and Future Practice Patterns in Cardiac and Pulmonary Preservation
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2000Heart and lung transplantation have become standard therapy for many patients with end-stage heart and lung disease. Successful transplantation requires preservation of allografts until they can be implanted and reperfused. In the decades since the transplantation of thoracic organs became a clinical reality, many advances have been made in ...

Pulmonary hypertension in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
The Journal of Heart and Lung Transplantation, 2015In heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), an entity that remains challenging and difficult to treat, the development of pulmonary hypertension (PH), via an increase in left atrial pressure, is the direct consequence of reduced relaxation and enhanced stiffness of the left ventricle and is now viewed as an important contributor to ...

Preserved muscle metaboreflex in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, 2011The objective of this study was to measure the magnitude of the muscle metaboreflex in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) compared with healthy controls and to assess the relationships between disease severity, exercise capacity, and the magnitude of the muscle metaboreflex.

Bronchial Repair with Pulmonary Preservation for Severe Blunt Trauma
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 2001After a motorcycle accident, a 22-year-old male was diagnosed with multiple rib fractures, left-sided tension pneumothorax, hemothorax and left upper lobe bronchus rupture at its origin. An emergency left thoracotomy revealed an almost complete avulsion of the upper lobe bronchus from the main stem bronchus, a severely damaged pulmonary artery, and a ...

Preservation of a Regurgitant Quadricuspid Pulmonary Autograft by the David Procedure
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2019We report a case in which a quadricuspid pulmonary valve was used for the Ross operation in a young male patient. The patient demonstrated severe pulmonary autograft regurgitation due to a neosinus of Valsalva aneurysm 16 years after the primary operation.

Preserving Pulmonary Function: A Palliative Intervention
The Journal for Nurse Practitioners, 2019Abstract Morbidity and mortality rates from advanced symptomatic pulmonary disease (APD) is a global concern. Of the 10 leading causes of death worldwide, 3 are pulmonary conditions. Ensuring accurate diagnosis and differentiating between obstructive and restrictive airways disease determines optimal patient outcomes.
