Regurgitation under the ERAS Program: A Case Report
Introduction: Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is an evidence-based concept that reduces the recovery period after major abdominal surgery. Ingestion of carbohydrate solutions up until two hours before elective surgery has shown positive results ...

Abstract Cyclizine is a long‐established, short‐acting drug, registered for preventing motion sickness, post‐operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and ‘vomiting of known cause’. The latter is not defined but may include pregnancy and patients receiving palliative care, historically accepted without large, controlled trials.

Abstract This paper examines the experiences of Nigerian cross‐border students in UK higher education, focusing on how colonial legacies continue to shape the interplay between structure and agency. Three key themes emerged in the analysis of the data: First, the persistence of a ‘West is Best’ mentality reflects the internalisation of colonial ...

Echocardiographic and clinical aspects of mitral regurgitation [PDF]
In this thesis the contemporary role of echocardiography in mitral regurgitation was investigated, in particular identification of the mitral regurgitation mechanism, quantification of mitral regurgitation and evaluation of mitral regurgitation ...

Isolated undersized mitral annuloplasty for functional mitral regurgitation in non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy: reconsideration of the relationship between preoperative coaptation depth and persistent mitral regurgitation. [PDF]
A preoperative coaptation depth (CD) >or=11 mm is apparently a predictive factor for persistent mitral regurgitation (MR) after undersized mitral annuloplasty for functional MR.

Tricuspid stenosis is a rare condition, whereas tricuspid regurgitation is more frequent, especially in its secondary form. For appropriate management, secondary tricuspid regurgitation has to be clearly distinguished from primary tricuspid regurgitation.

The challenges of bioprosthetic heart valves (BHV) with respect to calcification, infection, and poor durability are tackled by surface engineering of hyperbranched poly‐L‐lysine (HBPL), providing a translational solution to improve long‐term valve performance.

Evidence for adaptive explanations of semelparity in animals
ABSTRACT Semelparity, the reproductive strategy of reproducing once, is widespread but uncommon in animals. Classes of models to explain the evolution of semelparity are based either on age structure and mortality schedules – demographic models in which high post‐reproductive mortality risk favours high reproductive effort and semelparity results from ...

Mitral regurgitation is the second most frequent indication for valve surgery in Europe. Echocardiography is essential to assess the aetiology of mitral regurgitation, as well as valve anatomy and function. An integrative approach is needed to assess the

Objectives: Moderate secondary mitral regurgitation is common in patients with severe aortic regurgitation, but whether it has to be addressed at the time of aortic valve surgery remains unclear.
