Abstract This narrative review summarizes current evidence on the role of aminothiols as biomarkers of oxidative stress in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). CABG is accompanied by profound..
Read MoreAbstract Background Increased postoperative glycemic variability (GV) has been shown to be associated with an increased risk for adverse outcomes. However, the impact of postoperative GV on the long-term mortality..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives Minimal invasive Extracorporeal Circulation (MiECC) and Hybrid System (HS) have been introduced to potentially reduce the inflammatory response compared to conventional Cardiopulmonary Bypass (cCPB). The HS combines elements..
Read MoreAbstract Managing severe (AS) alongside complex (CAD) in frail patients is challenging. A 79-year-old female with resting dyspnea was diagnosed with severe AS and CAD. While (CABG) was the appropriate treatment for CAD,..
Read MoreAbstract Background Intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation in the perioperative period of cardiac surgery is an auxiliary treatment for cardiogenic shock. However, there is a lack of effective prediction models..
Read MoreAbstract Background Cardioplegic arrest can be induced by various methods, fueling a long-standing controversy about their comparative merit. We aim to compare cardioplegic methods in coronary artery disease. Methods PubMed,..
Read MoreAbstract Background Despite sternum sparing and without cardiopulmonary bypass, the actual value of minimally invasive coronary surgery (MICS) is still debatable. This study aimed to compare the completeness of revascularization..
Read MoreAbstract Background and Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of sevoflurane-based anesthesia and propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) on intraocular pressure (IOP) during coronary artery..
Read MoreAbstract OBJECTIVES It has been suggested that long-term risk for incident cancer is increased in patients operated with cardiopulmonary bypass. We compared the risk for incident cancer and cancer-specific death..
Read MoreAbstract Background Postoperative period of Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting can be challenging, with physical and psychological problems and symptoms. We conducted this study to explore the effect of a psycho-educational..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose of review Coronary artery bypass grafting, revascularization by percutaneous coronary intervention, and heart valve surgery are crucial therapeutic interventions for patients with various cardiovascular diseases. The objective of..
Read MoreAbstract BACKGROUND: Prior studies identified thresholds for mean arterial pressure (MAP <65 mm Hg) and central venous pressure (CVP >12 mm Hg) beyond which risk for cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney..
Read MoreAbstract Aims This study aims to identify distinct clusters of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) based on demographic, clinical, and autonomic function characteristics and to validate these clusters...
Read MoreAbstract Objectives The effect of perioperative hyperoxia on microcirculation after cardiac surgery remains inconclusive. We evaluated the relationship between intraoperative fractional inspired oxygen and microcirculation after off-pump coronary artery bypass..
Read MoreAbstract Background On-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) triggers inflammatory responses as a result of surgical stress and extracorporeal circulation, which affect platelet and leukocyte activation while enhancing their intimate..
Read MoreAbstract This is a man in his late 70s with a history of myocardial infarction and congenital factor XI (FXI) deficiency, who underwent urgent coronary artery bypass surgery for coronary..
Read MoreAbstract Background Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most effective treatments for improving the quality of life in patients with severe coronary artery disease. However, these patients..
Read MoreAbstract OBJECTIVES An urgent transition to environmentally sustainable healthcare is required. The purpose of this study was to identify key areas for environmental impact mitigation for a coronary artery bypass..
Read MoreAbstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common and serious complication after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), significantly affecting patient outcomes. The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, a marker of insulin..
Read MoreAbstract OBJECTIVES Since the development of minimally invasive coronary surgery, nomenclature has rapidly grown to distinguish each unique method. The goal of this review was to provide a comprehensive overview..
Read MoreAbstract Objective: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) via the right axillary artery (RAA) has become an alternative perfusion strategy, especially in complex aortic procedures. This study delineates our technique and outcome with..
Read MoreAbstract Background Unlike on-pump beating coronary artery bypass grafting, off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) rarely causes intracardiac air embolisms. However, there have been several reports of air embolisms that..
Read MoreAbstract Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with the transient activation of a systemic inflammatory response. Fibronectin (FN), an endogenous inflammatory mediator, is a key..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction The efficacy and outcomes of on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) remain uncertain, especially in Latin America. Our study aims to explore survival and shortand mid-term..
Read MoreAbstract Objective: This study evaluated the incidence, causes, and predictors of intraoperative conversion from off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) to on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (ONCAB), identifying risk factors..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the most performed operations worldwide. However, CABG is often as invasive today as it was 50 years ago. Less invasive..
Read MorePaciente com 72 anos , 80 kg , 166 de altura, Asc 1.9 e 29 Imc . DM 2 . HAS . IAM csst . Obstrução Carotida E 60 %..
Read MoreAbstract Background The intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) technique plays a crucial role in providing circulatory support for patients experiencing hemodynamic instability. This study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety..
Read MoreAbstract Background Analyses of extensive registries indicate adverse outcomes for women undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, while randomized studies often lack representativeness. Objective To compare adjusted hospital outcomes..
Read MoreAbstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) frequently occurs as a complication of cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Its prevalence and severity are determined by various preoperative and intraoperative factors...
