Vasoplegia from Continuous Flow Left Ventricular Assist Devices

Current Cardiology Reports, 2021
The contribution of continuous flow left ventricular assist devices (c-LVAD) to vasoplegic syndrome and postoperative outcomes after orthotopic heart transplant (OHT) is contested in the literature. A standardized definition of vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is needed to better recognize and manage vasoplegic shock.Vasoplegic syndrome occurs after orthotopic

Intraoperative vasoplegia

Current Opinion in Anaesthesiology, 2018
To evaluate the efficacy, dosing, and safety of methylene blue (MTB) in perioperative vasoplegic syndrome (VS).Vasoplegic syndrome is a state of persistent hypotension with elevated cardiac output, low filling pressures, and low systemic vascular resistance (SVR). It occurs in up to 25% of patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass,

PROTAMINE VASOPLEGIA: A RARE SIDE EFFECT

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2020
Protamine vasoplegia is a state of endothelial dysregulation that produces profound vasodilatation which is refractory to vasopressors. This syndrome leads to systemic hypoperfusion and may progress to death. It can result after administration of protamine sulphate.

Cardiac Vasoplegia Syndrome: Pathophysiology, Risk Factors and Treatment

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2015
Vasoplegia syndrome is a well known complication after cardiac surgery and has a significant morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by profound vasodilation and loss of systemic vascular resistance leading to hypotension. The pathogenesis of vasoplegia involves the activation of contact, coagulation and complement systems and the activation of ...

Vasoplegia During Cardiac Surgery: Current Concepts and Management

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2010
Vasoplegic syndrome (VS) is a recognized and relatively common complication of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), appearing with an incidence ranging between 5% and 25%. It is characterized by significant hypotension, high or normal cardiac outputs and low systemic vascular resistance (SVR), and increased requirements for fluids and vasopressors during or ...

Methylene Blue and Vasoplegia: Who, When, and How?

Mini-Reviews in Medicinal Chemistry, 2008
Systemic inflammatory response can be associated with clinically significant and, at times, refractory hypotension. Despite the lack of uniform definitions, this condition is frequently called vasoplegia or vasoplegic syndrome (VS), and is thought to be due to dysregulation of endothelial homeostasis and subsequent endothelial dysfunction secondary to ...

Vasoplegia after cardiac surgery

2020
A case of severe refractory hypotension following a cardiac transplant is presented. In the hours after surgery, vasoplegia was diagnosed in the intensive care unit after exclusion of common causes of hypotension after cardiac surgery. Vasoplegia after cardiac surgery is a condition characterised by severe systemic hypotension, low systemic vascular ...

Vasoplegia Syndrome Management Post Cardiac Surgery

2022
Abstract Vasoplegia syndrome is a form of vasodilatory shock often seen in patients after cardiac surgery. It is characterized by profound vasodilation with low systemic vascular resistance resulting in high cardiac output and severe hypotension despite fluid resuscitation. It is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and is

Early post-operative vasoplegia in lung transplantation

Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia, 2019
Introduction Lung transplantation (LTx) is the main treatment for end-stage respiratory failure. The post-operative development of pulmonary and systemic inflammation represents a severe limitation leading to Primary Graft Dysfunction (PGD) and multi-organ failure with great impact on survival and clinical outcomes.

Vasoplegia in septic shock (review).

Georgian medical news, 2016
Vasoplegia is considered as a key factor responsible for the death of patients with septic shock, due to persistent and irreversible hypotension. The latter associated with vascular hyporeactivity to vasoconstrictors is a significant independent prognostic factor of mortality in severe sepsis.
