Biomarcadores associados à defechos clínicos pós-cirurgia cardíaca em terapia intensiva pediátrica

Resumo Objetivo: Sintetizar e analisar criticamente a literatura a respeito de potenciais biomarcadores associados à desfechos clínicos no pós-operatório de cirurgia cardíaca em lactentes e crianças em cuidados intensivos. Métodos: Revisão integrativa, cuja busca ocorreu nos meses de setembro e...

Universal definition of perioperative bleeding in cardiac surgery adults and association with mortality in a Mexican Cardiovascular Critical Care Unit

Arch. cardiol. Méx; 90 (4), 2020
Abstract Background: Bleeding as a complication is associated with poorer results in cardiac surgery. There is increasing evidence that the use of blood products is an independent factor of increased morbidity, mortality, and hospital costs. Dyke et al. established the universal definition of perioperat...

The effect of continuous ventilation on thiol-disulphide homeostasis and albumin-adjusted ischemia-modified albumin during cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract Objective: To investigate the effect of continuous lung ventilation with low tidal volume on oxidation parameters, such as thiol/disulphide homeostasis and albumin-adjusted ischemia-modified albumin (AAIMA), during cardiopulmonary bypass (CBP) in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Methods...

Risk factors for major adverse events after surgical closure of ventricular septal defect in patients less than 1 year of age: a single-center retrospective

Abstract Objective: To reveal the risk factors that can lead to a complicated course and an increased morbidity in patients < 1 year old after surgical ventricular septal defect (VSD) closure. Methods: We reviewed a consecutive series of patients who were admitted to our institution for surgical VSD...

The expression of and preoperative correlation between heat-shock protein 70, euroscore, and lactate in patients undergoing cabg with cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract Objetive: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) improved symptoms and increased survival and quality of life in patients with coronary artery disease. However, it should be the main cause of a complex organic systemic inflammatory response that greatly contrib...

Behavior of ultrasensitive c-reactive protein in myocardial revascularization with and without cardiopulmonary bypass

Abstract Objective: To analyze the inflammation resulting from myocardial revascularization techniques with and without cardiopulmonary bypass, based on ultrasensitive C-reactive protein (US-CRP) behavior. Methods: A prospective non-randomized clinical study with 136 patients was performed. Sixty-nine ...

Mid-term results of peripheral cannulation after robotic cardiac surgery

Abstract Introduction: Various surgical procedures for minimally invasive cardiac surgery have been described in recent decades as alternatives to median sternotomy. Cardiopulmonary bypass via femoral arterial and venous cannulation is the foundation of these procedures. In this study, we evaluated the ...

Functional performance of different venous limb options in simulated neonatal/pediatric cardiopulmonary bypass circuits

Abstract Objective: Hemodilution is a concern in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Using a smaller dual tubing rather than a single larger inner diameter (ID) tubing in the venous limb to decrease prime volume has been a standard practice. The purpose of this study is to evaluate these tubing options. Meth...

Aortic valve replacement combined with ascending aortic aneurysmectomy in a patient with sickle cell disease: a case report

Abstract Sickle cell anemia is a haematological disorder characterized by multiple vaso-occlusive complications, resulting in a reduced life expectancy. These patients are exposed to several triggering factors for sickle cell crises when they are submitted to cardiovascular surgeries with extracorporeal ...

Predictors of outcomes after correction of acute type a aortic dissection under moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest and antegrade cerebral perfusion

Abstract Introduction: Hypothermic circulatory arrest is widely used for correction of acute type A aortic dissection pathology. We present our experience of 45 consecutive patients operated in our unit with bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion and moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest. Methods: Be...
