Lire la suiteAbstract OBJECTIVES Chronic kidney disease can develop as a long-term complication after cardiac surgery—a condition associated with increased risk of new cardiovascular events, readmissions and mortality. Diagnosis is often delayed,..
Lire la suiteAbstract Background Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) has emerged as a promising intervention for refractory cardiac arrest, with potential benefits in survival and neurological outcomes. However, the impact of ECPR’s rapid,..
Lire la suiteAbstract OBJECTIVES Acute kidney injury commonly complicates congenital heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, increasing morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to evaluate risk factors for postoperative acute kidney injury and..
Lire la suiteAbstract Background: Population pharmacokinetics (PK) models could provide specific references for the formulation of personal drug delivery protocols, however, there is no population PK study of tranexamic acid (TXA) have been..
Lire la suiteAbstract Background Survival for hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) and variants has improved over the past 4 decades; however, survival remains low compared with other forms of congenital heart disease...
Lire la suiteAbstract Objectives Age is the main determinant for mortality in patients requiring postcardiotomy extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (PC-ECMO), but strategies to reverse this trend are unknown. This study investigates PC-ECMO outcomes..
Lire la suiteAbstract Introduction: Indexed oxygen delivery (DO₂i) is a critical parameter in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) management. Traditional goal-directed perfusion (GDP) protocols use fixed DO₂i thresholds, typically derived from normothermic conditions. However,..

Lire la suiteAbstract Background The microaxial flow pump (mAFP) improves survival in selected patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction–induced cardiogenic shock (STEMI-CS). Understanding the impact on cardiac output (CO), cardiac power output..
Lire la suiteAbstract Background Recent studies demonstrated satisfactory results of del Nido cardioplegia in minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS). We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of our modified “bloodless” del Nido cardioplegia..
Lire la suiteAbstract Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO2) is used to monitor cerebral perfusion with emerging evidence that optimization of rSO2 may improve neurological and non-neurological outcomes. To manipulate rSO2 an understanding of the..
Lire la suiteAbstract OBJECTIVES This study determines the microplastic (MP) levels, dimension, shape, and chemical composition generated from conventional cardiopulmonary bypass and minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation (MiECC) circuits. METHODS In vitro conventional and..
Lire la suiteAbstract Purpose The purpose of this systematic review was to identify the efficacy of cell salvage in adult and pediatric spinal surgery. Methods A comprehensive systematic review of four biomedical..
Lire la suiteAbstract Microstructural imaging enables researchers to visualise changes in the arterial wall, allowing for (i) a deeper understanding of the role of specific components in arterial mechanics, (ii) the observation..
Lire la suiteAbstract Background Patients undergoing cardiac surgery often receive red-cell transfusions, along with the associated risks and costs. Early intraoperative normovolemic hemodilution (i.e., acute normovolemic hemodilution [ANH]) is a blood-conservation technique..
Lire la suiteAbstract After cardiac arrest, restoration of circulation is the first step toward survivorship. Extracorporeal CPR (ECPR), the use of veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) to restore circulation, is increasingly being..
Lire la suiteAbstract Purpose Clinicians presume a relationship between the management of blood pressure during cardiac surgery and postoperative morbidity and mortality. With limited evidence to inform practice, we surveyed Canadian cardiac..
Lire la suiteAbstract Aim To identify the factors associated with postoperative complications within the first 24 h among individuals who have undergone open-heart surgery. Design A cross-sectional study. Methods The participants were 192..
Lire la suiteAbstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and severe problem following heart surgery, particularly in procedures involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). This research investigates the Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) on..
Lire la suiteAbstract We investigated echocardiographic and hemodynamic effects of intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) in 26 patients with cardiogenic shock on veno-arterial membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO). Our study demonstrated an 8.1% increase..
Lire la suiteAbstract Introduction Prolonged extracorporeal circulation time is known to cause intraoperative and postoperative bleeding, but the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. In this study, we analyzed the effects of..
Lire la suiteAbstract Bleeding and transfusion during cardiac surgery are major sources of complications. Surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass can induce coagulopathy, including platelet dysfunction. Desmopressin has been shown to reduce bleeding and..
