Peri‐operative rehabilitation in patients undergoing elective cardiac valve surgery: a randomised controlled trial

open access: yesAnaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Patients with valvular heart disease are at high risk of postoperative pulmonary complications, which contribute to morbidity and mortality. However, few studies have focused specifically on peri‐operative rehabilitation in this patient population.

Coronary artery grafting in infants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiac vale repair is an uncommon surgery in infants. CABG is technically demanding in infants due to the small size not only of the coronary arteries but also the potential graft arteries.

Impact of surgical pulmonary valve replacement on ventricular strain and synchrony in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot: a cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking study

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance, 2018
BackgroundIn patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), a better understanding of the impact of surgical pulmonary valve replacement (PVR) on ventricular mechanics may lead to improved indications and outcomes.

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 ...

Mitral valve replacement at Tygerberg Hospital: a 5 year follow-up

open access: yesSA Heart Journal, 2017
This study provides 5-year follow-up data of isolated mitral valve replacements with mechanical prosthesis at a large South African tertiary hospital. It also assessed the significance of pre-operative parameters to predict mortality.

Inflammatory Cytokines as Early Predictors of Weaning Failure From Extracorporeal Life Support

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
Levels of IL‐8 and IL‐6 and their dynamics are reliable early predictors of ECLS weaning failure. ABSTRACT Background Weaning from extracorporeal life support (ECLS) in patients with refractory shock still remains a complex decision. Despite considerable advances in ECLS management, reliable biomarkers to predict weaning success are still not available.

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

open access: yesArtificial 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.
