Technique: Continuous Retrograde Cardioplegia Followed by Warm Blood Antegrade Infusion
The optimum myocardial preservation technique during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures rerr.ains widely debated. It is believed that the efficacy of the myocardial preservation technique is largely responsible for post-operative myocardial function and recovery. At the Miami Heart Institute, a recently developed technique has been under investigation. It is the purpose of this report to reveal ...
متن کاملMyocardial metabolism after hypothermic retrograde continuous blood cardioplegia with anterograde warm cardioplegic induction
Method: A metabolic analysis of hypothermic retrograde continuous blood cardioplegia with antegrade warm cardioplegic induction was performed in a prospective study of 15 patients scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting. Arterial and coronary sinus blood samples were simultaneously taken: before establishing cardiopulmonary bypass, after anterograde warm cardioplegic induction, w...
متن کاملWarm versus cold cardioplegia for heart surgery: a meta-analysis.
Much controversy persists regarding the optimal techniques for myocardial protection during heart surgery. Numerous studies have compared warm cardioplegia with cold cardioplegia for myocardial preservation, but the outcomes were inconclusive. The aim of this meta-analysis of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) was to compare the beneficial and harmful effects of warm and cold cardioplegia duri...
متن کاملContinuous warm blood cardioplegia: a new technique for myocardial protection.
Hypothermia is used to prolong the safe period of ischemic arrest by reducing the heart's oxygen demands. Due to this effect, hypothermia has been the fundamental component of most methods of myocardial protection during cardiac surgery. However, hypothermia has a number of unwanted side effects, such as detrimental effects on enzyme function, energy generation, and cell membranes. Since electr...
متن کاملLimitations of retrograde continuous tepid blood cardioplegia for myocardial remodeling.
OBJECTIVE We assessed potential limitations of retrograde continuous tepid blood cardioplegia (RCTBC) for myocardial remodeling, represented by hypertrophied and/or dilated myocardium in patients with severe cardiomyopathy following single aortic valve replacement. METHODS The study was conducted on 91 patients who underwent initial single aortic valve replacement with tepid cardiopulmonary b...
