Abstract Background To inform future research and practice, we aimed to investigate the outcomes of patients who received extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to..
Read MoreAbstract Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is a form of temporary mechanical circulatory support and simultaneous extracorporeal gas exchange for acute cardiorespiratory failure, including refractory cardiogenic shock (CS) and..
Read MoreAbstract Objective Over the last two decades there has been an increase in the number of cardiac implantable electronic devices and consequently, there has also been an increased need for..
Read MoreAbstract The heart is imbued with a vast lymphatic network that is responsible for fluid homeostasis and immune cell trafficking. Disturbances in the forces that regulate microvascular fluid movement can..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Ineffective collaboration can increase adverse events in the operating theatre. When professionals work collaboratively, they are more likely to improve patient safety and outcomes. Aim: To identify interprofessional..
Read MoreAbstract Background and Objectives: While root cause analysis (RCA) is used to analyze medical errors with a systems approach, evidence demonstrating its effectiveness in reducing patient harm remains sparse. The..
Read MoreAbstract Background Many studies explored the impact of ventilation during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) period with conflicting results. Functional residual capacity or End Expiratory Lung Volume (EELV) may be disturbed after..
Read MoreAbstract Fentanyl is commonly used in critically ill patients receiving extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Fentanyl’s lipophilicity and protein binding may contribute to a sequestration of the drug in the ECMO..
Read MoreAbstract Congenital Heart Disease (CHD) is a significant source of pediatric morbidity and mortality. As in other fields of medicine, studies have demonstrated racial and ethnic disparities in congenital heart..
Read MorePatient with SVCS and bacterial endocarditis and extension of infected clot from SVC to RA and TV and RVOT just like embolism undergone bicaval cannulation and total inflow superior to..
Read MoreThis case reports on a 20-year-old patient with no relevant medical history, who was admitted to the emergency room with severe polytrauma after hitting a stationary car whilst on his..
Read MorePatient with Very Very Low LVEF 10 percent and LV aneurysm undergone surgical ventricular restoration. [playlist ids="37662"] Dr.Sam Zeraatian Nejad Davani, CEO of rockingham medical research ADKWA center as..
Read MoreAbstract Objectives: To investigate changes in von Willebrand factor (VWF) concentration, function, and multimers during pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and determine whether routine monitoring of VWF during ECMO would be useful..
Read MoreAscending Aorta repair with coronary ostia involvement undergone Ascending aorta reconstruction with cabrol technique and ostia reimplantation with interposing tubular graft. [playlist ids="37653"] Dr.Sam Zeraatian Nejad Davani, CEO of..
Read MorePatient with multiple scallops prolapse and mitral annulus calcification undergone MVR with annulus décalcification. Dr.Sam Zeraatian Nejad Davani, CEO of rockingham medical research ADKWA center as well as Head..
Read MorePatient with 3VD and LMTO undergone CABG with Y graft and LIMA to LAD as well as distal anastomoses with SVG. Dr.Sam Zeraatian Nejad Davani, CEO of rockingham medical..
Read MoreAbstract Aim The aim of this study was to describe the survival and neurological outcome in patients with treated with and without mechanical (MCS). Methods This was a retrospective observational on patients with..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose: To provide an overview and evaluate the performance of mortality prediction models for patients requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support for refractory cardiocirculatory or respiratory failure. Methods: A..
Read MoreAbstract Transesophageal echocardiography is frequently but not always used to guide anesthetic management during liver transplantation. We performed a systematic review of the literature to identify and summarize any studies..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Acute right ventricular failure (aRVF) is associated with high mortality and morbidity. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) may be considered as an advanced treatment option. The ProtekDuo is a..
Read MorePatient with bacterial endocarditis of SVC and RA and TV and Pulmonary valve undergone TV repair and PVR as well as SVC reconstruction with autologous pericardial patch RVOT also reconstructed..
Read MorePatient with ESRD and dialysis catheter causing SVC rupture and lung injury undergone sternotomy and SVC repair blood evacuation and lung repair and catheter withdrawal. Dr.Sam Zeraatian Nejad Davani,..
Read MoreAbstract Background This study was conducted to determine the association between fluid balance metrics and mortality and other postoperative outcomes after neonatal cardiac operation in a contemporary multicenter cohort. Methods..
Read MoreAbstract The concept of patient blood management (PBM) was introduced by the World Health Organization in 2011 and is defined as a “patient-focused, evidence-based and systematic approach for optimizing the..
Read MoreAbstract Importance: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) has poor outcome. Whether intra-arrest transport, extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR), and immediate invasive assessment and treatment (invasive strategy) is beneficial in this setting remains uncertain...
Read MoreAbstract Objectives To determine if decreases in the Karnofsky Performance Score (KPS) while on the waitlist predict decreased survival after lung transplantation (LTx). Design A retrospective evaluation of the United..
Read MoreAbstract Recently three different neonatal extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) circuits have been employed in our clinic. These circuits were compared for clotting and bleeding complications. Initially, we used an ECMO..
Read MoreAbstract Hemolysis usually happens instantly when red blood cells (RBCs) rupture under a high shear stress. However, it is also found to happen gradually in the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)..
