Abstract Background: To investigate the factors that influence blood transfusions after neonatal cardiac surgery and their association with prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) to provide a basis for optimizing blood transfusion..

Abstract Objectives Recent research suggests that increased cerebral oxygen use during surgical intervention for neonates with congenital heart disease may play a role in the development of postoperative white matter..

Abstract Longitudinal assessment of brain perfusion is a critical parameter for neurodevelopmental outcome of neonates undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass procedure. In this study, we aim to measure the variations of cerebral..

Abstract Purpose With newer generation diagonal and centrifugal blood pumps gaining popularity, the objective of this study was to compare the DP3-i-cor diagonal and RotaFlow centrifugal pumps in terms of..

This video tutorial illustrates the surgical correction of aortic coarctation associated with severe hypoplastic aortic arch and a large subaortic ventricular septal defect using a fresh autologous pericardial patch for..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract   OBJECTIVES Cardiopulmonary bypass generates a systemic inflammatory response. This inflammatory response is reduced if patients are ventilated during bypass, as evidenced by lower levels of postoperative circulating inflammatory..

Abstract Background Suboptimal tissue perfusion and oxygenation may be the root cause of certain perioperative complications in neonates and infants having complicated aortic coarctation repair. Practical, effective, and real-time monitoring..

Abstract Neonatal cardiac performance is dependent on calcium delivery to the myocardium. Little is known about the use and impact of calcium chloride infusions in neonates who undergo cardiac surgery...

Abstract Background  Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 42%–64% of the neonatal patients experiencing cardiac surgery, contributing to postoperative morbidity and mortality. Current diagnostic criteria, which are mainly based on..

Abstract Introduction: The use of therapeutic hypothermia during neonatal extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as a neurologic protective strategy has gained interest among clinicians despite limited data. Our objective is to..

Abstract Objectives The authors hypothesized that transfusion of blood products in neonates and infants undergoing high-risk cardiac surgery in the absence of intraoperative coagulation monitoring increases the risk of thrombotic..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Because of a severe dysregulation of the host response to infection, septic shock may induce a profound imbalance between oxygen consumption and delivery, which in some cases may be..

Abstract Essentials   Heparin‐protamine balance (HPB) modulates bleeding after neonatal cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). HPB was examined in 44 neonates undergoing CPB. Post‐operative bleeding occurred in 36% and heparin rebound in..

Abstract OBJECTIVES The aortic arch repair in the neonatal period is a complex procedure with significant morbidity. We define a useful double-perfusion technique and its effect on the function of..
