Effect of Preoperative N-Acetylcysteine on Postoperative Blood Loss Parameters in Cardiac Surgery Patients
Purpose. To determine if recent preoperative exposure to n-acetylcysteine (NAC), Mucomyst, increases postoperative blood loss in cardiac surgery patients. Methods. Retrospective review of cardiac surgery patients who underwent a cardiac catheterization within four days of surgery and whose serum creatinine was ≥1.0 mg/dL. The study groups were those who received NAC in the pericatheterization p...
متن کاملEffect of music on postoperative physiological parameters in patients under open heart surgery
Music as a therapeutic non-invasive tool-could be used as an effective intervention in nursing practice. The aim of this study was to survey effect of music upon patients’ physiological parameters following open heart surgery. A quasi-experimental study was performed on 60 patients under open heart surgery referred to intensive care unit. Patients were randomly divided into two groups including...
متن کاملPreoperative asymptomatic leukocytosis and postoperative outcome in cardiac surgery patients
BACKGROUND Despite showing a prognostic value in general surgical patients, preoperative asymptomatic elevated white blood cell (WBC) count is not considered a risk factor for cardiac surgery. Whereas there is sporadic evidence of its value as a preoperative risk marker, it has not been looked at methodically as a specific index of outcome during cardiac surgery. Using a national database we so...
متن کاملFactors affecting postoperative blood loss in children undergoing cardiac surgery
We hypothesized that the influence of cyanotic disease on postoperative blood loss is closely related to age in children undergoing cardiac surgery. Here, we demonstrate that the presence of a cyanotic disease is associated with increased postoperative blood loss in children aged 1 to 6 months. Children with cyanotic disease and aged<1 month who received fresh frozen plasma during cardiopulmona...
متن کاملEffect of preoperative statin therapy on postoperative atrial fibrillation in cardiac surgery.
To the Editor: We read with great interest the randomized trial by Ji et al1 of preoperative atorvastatin therapy to prevent atrial fibrillation (AF) following off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. Their results showed that patients undergoing preoperative administration of oral atorvastatin had a lower incidence of postoperative AF vs preoperative administration of oral placebo (14% vs 34%...
