Cardiopulmonary endoscopy: an effective and low risk method of examining the cardiopulmonary system during cardiac surgery.
OBJECTIVES During cardiac surgery it is sometimes necessary to examine heart chambers remote from the site of surgery. Similarly visualization of the pulmonary arterial tree will enable assessment for the completeness of pulmonary embolectomy. There are no standard adjunctive procedures to accomplish this. Left ventriculotomy used to examine the left ventricle, and maneuvers used to ensure comp...
متن کاملEmergent Cardiopulmonary Bypass during Cardiac Surgery.
During orientation to the cardiac surgery operating room, new staff may not be exposed to emergent situations. Allowing team members the opportunity to practice their roles during less common, high-stakes emergency cardiac surgical scenarios may better prepare them when crises do arise in the OR. The Emergency Cardiopulmonary Bypass Course was developed to meet the needs of new staff starting i...
متن کاملProblems of Cold Agglutinins in Cardiac Surgery: How to Manage Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Myocardial Protection
Cold agglutinins are of unique relevance in cardiac surgerybecause of the use of hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Cold autoimmune diseases are defined by the presence of abnormal circulating proteins (usually IgM or IgA antibodies) that agglutinate in response to a decrease in body temperature. These disorders include cryoglobulinemia and cold hemagglutinin disease.Immunoglobulin M aut...
متن کاملHyperglycemia during cardiopulmonary bypass is an independent risk factor for mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
BACKGROUND Hyperglycemia is commonly present in the perioperative period in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, even during administration of insulin. A direct relationship between postoperative hyperglycemia and mortality has been established in diabetic patients undergoing cardiac surgery. However, this relationship might be confounded because patients with poor outcome receive more glucogen...
