Transthoracic echocardiography for perioperative haemodynamic monitoring [PDF]

, 2017
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is valuable for perioperative monitoring in patients at risk from haemodynamic disturbance. However, its use is not practicable in patients undergoing surgical procedures under regional anaesthesia. We describe two

Role of transesophageal echocardiography in diagnosis and management of cardiac hydatid cyst: Report of three cases and review of the literature

, 2002
Although diagnostic value of transthoracic echocardiography in cardiac echinococcus is well established, the role of transesophageal echocardiography in both the diagnosis and the management of this entity is not well known. We present 3 unusual cases of

Cardiomyocyte Membrane‐Camouflaged Spinach Nano‐Thylakoids Enhance Myocardial Energy Metabolism and Ameliorate Heart Failure

Small, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the construction of MM‐NTU, its cardiac‐targeting behavior, and its light‐activated therapeutic mechanism. Thylakoids isolated from spinach chloroplasts were processed into nano‐thylakoid units (NTU) and further camouflaged with cardiomyocyte membranes to generate MM‐NTU.

Renal oxygenation, function and histopathology in an ovine model of heart failure undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass with 48 hours of recovery: a prospective, observational study*

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction Acute kidney injury is common after cardiac surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass, yet preventive strategies are limited. Progress has been hindered by a lack of clinically relevant experimental models incorporating pre‐existing heart disease.

Focused Transthoracic Echocardiography in the Perioperative Period [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2010
Ultrasound applications in perioperative medicine have expanded enormously over the past decade. Transoesophageal echocardiography has been performed by anaesthetists during cardiac surgery for over 20 years. With the increasing availability of portable ultrasound systems, the use of ultrasound to assist in vascular cannulation and regional anaesthesia

Circulating Musclin is associated with skeletal muscle function and subclinical cardiac dysfunction in patients with cancer

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Musclin (osteocrin) is a skeletal muscle‐derived peptide that has been implicated in cardioprotective signalling pathways. Its relevance in cancer patients, who frequently experience muscle wasting and cardiotoxicity, remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether circulating Musclin levels reflect functional capacity and

Cardiotoxicity of BRAF/MEK inhibitors

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma type B/B‐Raf proto‐oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF) and mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MEK) inhibitors have transformed outcomes in cancer therapy, particularly in melanoma. However, cardiovascular toxicities are increasingly recognized in real‐world clinical practice.
