Read MoreAbstract Background The perioperative complications in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery have been reported predominantly from developed countries, with a paucity of data..
Read MoreAbstract Background Treating severe forms of the acute respiratory distress syndrome and cardiac failure, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) has become an established therapeutic option. Neonatal or pediatric patients receiving ECMO,..
Read MoreAbstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and serious complication of cardiac surgery, associated with a high incidence of morbidity and mortality. Although the RIFLE criteria serve as..
Read MoreAbstract Background Cardiac surgery is known to induce acute endothelial dysfunction, which may be central to the pathophysiology of postoperative complications. Preoperative endothelial dysfunction could also be implicated in the..
Read MoreAbstract Rapid global spread of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the resultant clinical illness, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), drove the World Health Organization to declare COVID-19 a..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose Cardiac complications are common after spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). In this study we intended to investigate factors associated with higher alterations in heart rate and their impact on..
Read MoreAbstract Delirium and postoperative neurocognitive disorder are the commonest perioperative complications in patients more than 65 yr of age. However, data suggest that we often fail to screen patients for..
Read MoreAbstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become a major worldwide health threat in just a few weeks. ICU admission and the recourse to extracorporeal organ support, such..
Read MoreAbstract It is established that coronaviruses are transmitted most through aerosols produced when an infected individual coughs or sneezes. Although there is no clear evidence of person-to-person airborne transmission, it is..
Read MoreAbstract Bleeding following cardiac surgery that warrants transfusion of blood products is associated with significant complications, including increased mortality at 1 year following surgery. Factor concentrates, such as prothrombin complex..
Read MoreAbstract Background/Objectives Endoscopic coronary artery bypass grafting (Endo-CABG) is a minimally invasive CABG procedure with retrograde arterial perfusion. The main objective of this study is to assess neurocognitive outcome after..
