Cerebral Protection During Cardiac Surgery
Despite many advances in perioperative care, cerebral injury from cardiac surgery remains an important source of patient morbidity and mortality. This injury has a range of clinical manifestations, including stroke and encephalopathy, which occur in 1–3% and 10–15% of patients, respectively. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is more common, affecting 15–40% of patients 1 month after su...
متن کاملGuided imagery in cardiac surgery.
Clinical research has demonstrated that guided imagery, a simple form of relaxation, can reduce preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain among patients undergoing surgical procedures. In 1998, the cardiac surgery team implemented a guided imagery program to compare cardiac surgical outcomes between two groups of patients: with and without guided imagery. Data from the hospital financial cost...
متن کامل[Myocardial protection in cardiac surgery.].
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Myocardial protection defines the set of strategies aiming at attenuating the intensity of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury during heart surgery and its harmful consequences on myocardial function. A better understanding of pathophysiological phenomena related to ischemia-reperfusion events and of the anesthetic-induced heart protection has given to the anesthesi...
متن کاملCerebral oximetry in cardiac surgery
Open heart surgery has become increasingly common since first performed by Gibbon in 1953. The average age and the number of co-morbidities in these patients have also increased. Cerebral injury after cardiac surgery is a dreaded outcome and is associated with longer hospital stays, including intensive care unit stays and increased mortality.1 Morbid neurological outcome after cardiac surgery i...
متن کاملCerebral Oximetry in Cardiac Surgery
Stroke and neurocognitive dysfunction are common after cardiac surgery with rates of approximately 3-6% and 30-50%, respectively (1,2). Multiple etiologies have been proposed for these neurological insults. Microembolism, macroembolism, hyoperfusion, or some combination of these are the most likely culprits. In all of these scenarios the final pathway is tissue ischemia, resulting in neurodegen...
