Read MoreAbstract Background Postoperative bleeding following cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remains a significant challenge. Although viscoelastic testing is increasingly used, the relative contributions of fibrinogen, platelet count and clot firmness to blood..
Read MoreAbstract Objective Coronary artery bypass grafting using cardiopulmonary bypass and cardioplegic arrest is an effective treatment for coronary artery disease. Research suggests supplementing the cardioplegia solution with propofol may be..
Read MoreAbstract Background Nitric oxide (NO) is reported to play several protective roles in the inflammatory response and ischemia/reperfusion injury. This study evaluated the effect of nitric oxide (NO) on postoperative..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives Clinical practice in anticoagulation management, particularly in heparin administration, monitoring, reversal and haemostasis, is known to differ significantly. To better characterize this variability, we conducted a Europe-wide survey..

Read MoreAbstract Background Patients with severe respiratory failure frequently suffer from concomitant haemodynamic compromise. By correcting respiratory acidosis and permitting reduced mechanical ventilation pressures, venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) may..
Read MoreAbstract Peri-device leak and device-related thrombus remain key challenges of current left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) owing to the incompatibility between the solid occluder and the left atrial appendage (LAA). Here..
Read MoreAbstract Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality despite decades of progress in ventilatory support. Mechanical ventilation, while essential for oxygenation, may exacerbate lung..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction: The absence of a congenital heart surgery national registry limits understanding of access, surgical volume, and mortality. This study analyzes the Brazilian administrative data to assess procedural distribution, outcomes,..
Read MoreAbstract Background Socioeconomic inequalities have been associated with adverse outcomes in critically ill COVID-19 patients. Whether these disparities extend to the most severe ARDS patients treated with ECMO, regardless of..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives Data on the role of obesity in patients undergoing minimally invasive cardiac surgery are sparse, and the longitudinal observations after minimally invasive mitral valve repair (MI-MVr) in obese..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA) is the recommended first-line strategy for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) circuits. Acute kidney injury is common in patients undergoing venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation..
Read MoreAbstract Background Intravenous amino acids (AA) reduce acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery. Because the optimal duration of AA infusion is unknown, we investigated the effect..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are highly prevalent among healthcare workers, particularly nurses, with reported prevalence rates ranging from 57% to 93%. Perfusionists are highly specialized healthcare professionals responsible for operating..
Read MoreAbstract Objective This study assessed the impact of intraoperative goal-directed fluid therapy integrated within an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery program on early coagulation parameters, transfusion requirements, hemoglobin levels, chest tube..
Read MoreAbstract Delaying the measurement of a complete blood count (CBC) for 6 to 24 hours after red blood cell transfusion remains a common practice in hospitals worldwide, despite the absence..
Read MoreAbstract Hereditary spherocytosis (HS) is a rare inherited haemolytic anaemia. This case report outlines a neonatal patient with presumed HS requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and the whole blood exchange transfusion..
Read MoreAbstract Endothelin-1 is a potent regulator of vasomotor tone and promotes endothelium-dependent vasoconstriction of vascular smooth muscle. Dysregulated vasomotor tone is a hallmark of microvascular pathology following cardiac surgery involving..
Read MoreAbstract BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to present our institutional experience with periprocedural management of emergency cesarean section (CS) operations and maternal and fetal cardiac complications in pregnant..
Read MoreAbstract Background and objective Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), though indispensable in cardiac surgery, carries significant risks of systemic embolization and organ injury. While cerebral and cardiac complications have been thoroughly investigated,..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Post-CPB bleeding remains a critical challenge in neonatal cardiac surgery, and early detection of coagulopathy to guide transfusion decisions may offer significant benefits. We hypothesized that routine use..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Monitoring indexed oxygen delivery (DO2i) is recommended during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and a predictor of acute kidney injury (AKI). The use of lean body mass-adjusted blood flow rates..
