Warm blood cardioplegia: Ultrastructural and hemodynamic study

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1993
Forty patients with coronary artery disease were included in this study. Half of them received cold crystalloid and cold blood cardioplegia (group 1), and half received normothermic blood cardioplegia (group 2). In group 1, left ventricular stroke work index was 24 +/- 3 g.m/m2 1 hour after the operation, 29 +/- 8 g.m/m2 12 hours after the operation ...

Intermittent antegrade warm blood cardioplegia for CABG: extended interval of cardioplegia

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2000
Intermittent delivery of warm cardioplegia provides a bloodless surgical field, but it is clinically important to evaluate the periods of normothermic ischemia. The aims of this study are to compare intermittent antegrade warm blood cardioplegia (IAWBC) with intermittent antegrade cold blood cardioplegia (IACBC) groups in terms of myocardial protection,

Intermittent warm blood cardioplegia. Warm Heart Investigators.

Circulation, 1995
Warm heart surgery implies continuous perfusion with normothermic blood cardioplegia. Interruption of cardioplegia, however, facilitates construction of distal coronary anastomoses and is the method practiced by many surgeons. To determine whether intermittency is harmful, we present results from 720 coronary bypass patients, protected with ...

Intermittent warm blood cardioplegia —An experimental study—

The Japanese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 1998
The influence of intermittent warm blood cardioplegia (WBCP) on myocardial function and metabolism was studied. Fourty-two adult mongrel dogs were used. The isolated heart of one dog was perfused by the cross circulation method with another support dog. The dogs then were divided into three groups.

Myocardial Oxygenation During Terminal Warm Blood Cardioplegia

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1998
Terminal warm blood cardioplegia accelerates myocardial metabolic recovery. The process of myocardial oxygenation during terminal warm blood cardioplegia and its optimal administration are not clear.We measured the myocardial tissue oxygen saturation (SO2) during reperfusion using near-infrared spectroscopy.

[The intermittent "warm" blood cardioplegia].

Annales de chirurgie, 1993
Even today, a plethora of cardioplegic solutions are in clinical use. In the study presented here, sixty-six consecutive coronary bypass procedures received normothermic (37 degrees C) blood cardioplegia (NBC) intermittently. This group of patients was compared to an historical group of 68 patients having received cold crystalloid cardioplegia (CCC ...

Technique and pitfalls of retrograde continuous warm blood cardioplegia

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1991
The recent development of normothermic myocardial preservation and systemic perfusion during bypass has questioned the fundamental need for hypothermia during cardiac operations. The antegrade technique of almost continuous perfusion by the aortic root and vein grafts has been supplemented by continuous normothermic blood cardioplegia through the ...

Retrograde continuous warm blood cardioplegia

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1991
he concept of retrograde continuous warm blood T cardioplegia is truly a different approach to myocardial preservation deserving of our consideration. In analyzing the pros and cons of this methodology, it is first appropriate to discuss the retrograde route of cardioplegic administration, which has in recent years become increasingly popular. Coronary

Warm blood cardioplegia: Benefits and risks

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1993
Abstract Warm blood cardioplegia has become the hottest topic in myocardial protection since high potassium solutions were popularized in the mid-1970s [1, 2]. This technique has been endorsed with such evangelistic zeal that a recent survey estimated that 10% of practicing cardiac surgeons are now using warm techniques [3].

[Antegrade warm blood cardioplegia compared to crystalloid cardioplegia in myocardial protection].

Medicinski arhiv, 2006
The tehniques of myocardial protection in cardiac surgery are innumerable. In this trial we tried to compare two established cardioplegic strategies in elective on-pump surgery (Intermittent antegrade warm blood cardioplegia--Calafiore--) and Kirsch-Solution with Haes).
