Abstract Background: In the context of complex aortic surgery, despite the wide consensus about the use of moderate hypothermia in association with antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (ASCP), its bilateral administration is..
WeiterlesenAbstract Objective: Cerebrovascular autoregulation impairment has been associated with stroke risk in cardiac surgery. We hypothesized that greater arterial emboli exposure in open-chamber surgery might promote dysautoreguation. Methods: Forty patients..
WeiterlesenAbstract Objective Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) in aortic surgery is associated with morbidity and mortality despite evolving strategies. With the advent of antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP), moderate hypothermic circulatory..
WeiterlesenAbstract The risk of redo sternotomy is greatly elevated in the setting of aortic proximity to the sternum. Current strategies to avoid catastrophic neurologic injury upon sternal reentry include establishment..
WeiterlesenAbstract Background The optimal strategy for cerebral protection during repair of type A acute has yet to be determined. We sought to determine the impact of differing degrees of hypothermia in..
WeiterlesenAbstract Objective: Exposure to cerebral emboli is ubiquitous and may be harmful in cardiac surgery utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass. This was a prospective observational study aiming to compare emboli exposure in..
WeiterlesenAbstract Objective: Mesenchymal stromal cells have important immunomodulatory and neuroprotective properties. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of mesenchymal stromal cell administration into a cardiopulmonary bypass..
WeiterlesenAbstract Background Antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP), including unilateral and bilateral, is most commonly used for cerebral protection in aortic surgery. There is still no consensus on the superiority of the..
WeiterlesenAbstract OBJECTIVES Although antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (ASCP) provides good brain protection during aortic arch surgery, the issue of distal organ protection during circulatory arrest remains to be clarified. The..
WeiterlesenAbstract Chipmunk as a food-storing hibernator naturally undergoes hibernation that is linked to great changes in systemic physiology and could protect the central nervous system during drastically reduced cerebral blood..
WeiterlesenAbstract Background Surgical and cerebral protection strategies in remain under debate. Perioperative results using deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) have been associated with favorable short-term mortality and stroke rates. The present..
WeiterlesenAbstract Background We designed a prospective randomized clinical study to compare unilateral and bilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP) under moderate hypethermia in open distal aortic hemiarch replacement in ascending aortic..
