Del Nido versus warm blood cardioplegia in adult patients with a low ejection fraction
Background Del Nido cardioplegia was recently introduced to adult cardiac surgery with encouraging results. The effect of Del Nido cardioplegia in patients with low ejection fraction (EF) has not been thoroughly evaluated. The objective of this study was

Warm Blood Cardioplegia for Myocardial Protection: Concepts and Controversies. [PDF]
Warm blood cardioplegia has been an established cardioplegic method since the 1990s, yet it remains controversial in regard to myocardial protection. This review will describe the physiologic and technical concepts behind warm blood cardioplegia, as well as outline the current basic and clinical research that evaluates its usefulness.

Myocardial protection during surgery for infective endocarditis: retrospective, single center, risk-adjusted study [PDF]
Objectives Current evidence does not support superiority of one cardioplegia type over another, but stems from low-risk populations. Therefore, we compared outcomes of multimorbid, high-risk infective endocarditis (IE) patients receiving Custodiol ...

Cardioplegic cardioprotection strategies used during paediatric open-heart surgery remain suboptimal. Sildenafil, a phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE-5) inhibitor, has been shown to be cardioprotective against ischemia/reperfusion injury in a variety of ...

Preconditioning during warm blood cardioplegia [PDF]
Preconditioning describes the cardioprotective effects of multiple brief episodes of warm ischemia. The purpose of the study was to determine whether warm ischemia, during the intermittent delivery of warm blood cardioplegia, would induce preconditioning during cardioplegia arrest.Dogs, 15, were randomized to a preconditioning protocol or to serve as ...

Background Patients with reduced ejection fraction (EF) undergoing CABG are more likely to develop postoperative morbidity and mortality. It is controversial about which cardioplegia solution, temperature, and method of administration ensure optimal ...
