Cardiac rehabilitation after cardiac surgery: a valuable opportunity that should not be missed.
Patients who have undergone coronary artery bypass graft surgery and heart valve repair or replacement are prime candidates for cardiac rehabilitation (CR) services [1–4]. Leading published reports have clearly documented that CR results in superior patient outcomes compared with usual care provided in clinical practice, probably owing to the fact that CR programs focus specialized resources an...
متن کاملIntraoperative angiography should be standard in cerebral aneurysm surgery
Intraoperative angiography (IOA) has proven to be a safe and effective adjunct to surgical repair of cerebral aneurysms. Substantial practice variation exists regarding use of this modality in different centers, including use of IOA routinely, selectively, or rarely. In this editorial, we discuss our experience and review the existing literature to develop an argument for routine use of IOA dur...
متن کاملGastroesophageal reflux and tracheobronchial contamination after cardiac surgery: should a nasogastric tube be routine?
Nasogastric (NG) tubes are routinely used in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. This randomized study was designed to assess gastroesophageal reflux (GER) without a NG tube (control) compared with a NG tube managed either by gravity drainage (gravity) or continuous low-grade suction (suction). Antimony pH probes were placed in the lower esophagus and trachea after induction of anesthesia in 5...
متن کاملUsefulness of urinary biomarkers in early detection of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery in adults.
BACKGROUND Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication after cardiac surgery. Urinary liver-type fatty acid-binding protein (L-FABP) reflects the presence of renal tubular injury. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the utility of urinary L-FABP compared with other urinary biomarkers for the early detection of postoperative AKI among adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery. ...
متن کاملUrinary biomarkers of AKI and mortality 3 years after cardiac surgery.
Urinary biomarkers of AKI provide prognostic value for in-hospital outcomes, but little is known about their association with longer-term mortality after surgery. We sought to assess the association between kidney injury biomarkers and all-cause mortality in an international, multicenter, prospective long-term follow-up study from six clinical centers in the United States and Canada composed of...
