Early discharge following coronary bypass surgery: is it safe?
OBJECTIVES Early discharge has been proposed as a means of containing the escalating cost of health care in cardiac surgery. The aim of this study was to investigate whether shortening the length of hospital stay after coronary artery bypass surgery is safe and cost effective. METHODS Patients (n=198) undergoing elective bypass surgery by two surgeons for a period of 12 months were prospectiv...

متن کاملTracheal extubation.
Tracheal extubation in both the critical care and anesthesia setting is not only an important milestone for patient recovery, but also a procedure that carries a considerable risk of complication or failure. Mechanical ventilation is associated with significant complications that are time-dependent in nature, with a longer duration of intubation resulting in a higher incidence of complications,...
متن کاملEarly Extubation Protocol Following Valve and Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
Background: Early extubation protocols can be safely implemented in most patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. We have found that these results can be replicated in patients undergoing valve surgery and combined coronary bypass and valve surgery as well. Methods: We implemented an early extubation protocol on Apr 4th, 2011. Our goal was to extubate all appropriately selected patie...
متن کاملTrials comparing early vs late extubation following cardiovascular surgery.
We identified 10 randomized trials that compared alternative management approaches to patient care during and following cardiovascular surgery. One overall strategy involved a modification of anesthesia, in particular, a reduction in the dosage of fentanyl and benzodiazepine or the substitution of fentanyl for propofol (five randomized controlled trials [RCTs]). Pooled results show a shorter du...
