Improved oxidative status in major abdominal surgery patients after N-acetyl cystein supplementation
BACKGROUND Increased levels of reactive oxygen species during and after surgery may affect inflammatory response, post-operative adhesion molecule formation, and hemodynamic stability. The glutathione redox cycle is an important regulator in oxidative stress and its reduced forms scavenge free radicals. N-acetyl cysteine, a precursor of reduced glutathione, is considered as a potentially therap...
متن کاملImplantable Drainage After Major Abdominal Surgery in Compromised Patients
The risk of superinfection following routine abdominal drainage after major surgery is debated. Especially in patients with malignant diseases and a compromised host defense, this might be a factor increasing morbidity and mortality. During a 3-year period (1986-1988) 41 patients operated on for malignant abdominal conditions received a peritoneal catheter connected to a subcutaneous portal ins...
متن کاملEffects of High-dose Selenium Supplementation on the Oxidative Stress Status and Inflammatory Markers in Critically Ill Pediatric Patients after Gastrointestinal Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial Protocol.
Introduction: Oxidative stress and inflammation could occur after major gastrointestinal surgeries. Selenium is a micronutrient with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, which could improve the inflammatory markers in the children admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) after gastrointestinal surgeries. Due to the lack of evidence on the potential effects of high-dos...
متن کاملeffectiveness of oral n-acetyl-cystein in reduction of pulmonary complications in smokers undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery
introduction: up to 12% of patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft have pulmonary complications. smoking can cause a six-time increase in pulmonary complication after major surgery. the most common pulmonary changes after cabg are decrease in frc, vc and atelectasis. in this study, the effect of oral n-acetyl-cystein in reduction of severity of hypoxemia and atelectasis in current smok...
متن کاملAlbumin Kinetics in Patients Undergoing Major Abdominal Surgery
BACKGROUND The drop in plasma albumin concentration following surgical trauma is well known, but the temporal pattern of the detailed mechanisms behind are less well described. The aim of this explorative study was to assess changes in albumin synthesis and transcapillary escape rate (TER) following major surgical trauma, at the time of peak elevations in two well-recognized markers of inflamma...
