Contemporary outcomes after pericardial window surgery: impact of operative technique
BACKGROUND The optimal window procedure for drainage of a large pericardial effusion has yet to be established. The purpose of this study was to compare the outcomes associated with the subxiphoid and thoracotomy pericardial window techniques, with a focus on perioperative pain and effusion recurrence rates. METHODS A retrospective single-center observational study of all pericardial window o...

متن کاملPericardial effusions in the cancer population: prognostic factors after pericardial window and the impact of paradoxical hemodynamic instability.
OBJECTIVE In the cancer population, pericardial effusions are a common and potentially life-threatening occurrence. Although decompression benefits most patients, paradoxical hemodynamic instability (PHI) develops in some, with hypotension and shock in the immediate postoperative period. This study examines paradoxical hemodynamic instability after pericardial window and identifies prognostic f...
متن کامل[Pericardial window by videothorascopy].
INTRODUCTION Pericardial effusion is a clinical condition requiring multidisciplinary management. There are several surgical techniques for its diagnosis and treatment. In the present study we report our experience in performing a pericardial window (PW) by videothorascopy. MATERIAL AND METHODS We performed surgery on 56 patients (20 females and 36 males), with a mean age of 56±1.22 years, an...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Intra-Operative Transfusions and Nadir Hematocrit on Post-Operative Outcomes after Cardiac Surgery.
Uncertainty exists regarding the optimal strategy for the management of anemia in the setting of cardiac surgery. We sought to improve our understanding of the role of intra-operative hematocrit (HCT) and transfusions on peri-operative outcomes following cardiac surgery. A total of 18,886 patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery were identified from a multi-institutional registry including s...
