In patients undergoing cardiac surgery does asymptomatic significant carotid artery stenosis warrant carotid endarterectomy?

The question addressed was whether asymptomatic significant carotid artery stenosis (ASCAS) warrants carotid endarterectomy (CEA) in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. 128 Papers were found using the reported search, of these 10 presented represent the best evidence to answer the clinical question....

In the GALA trial (Dec 20, p 2132), all types of regional anaesthesia were grouped as one: “local anaesthesia”. Yet clinical and anatomical studies confi rm important diff erences between simple subcutaneous infi ltration, formal “superfi cial” cervical plexus block, and a deep block. The last two are clinically equally eff ective, anatomical investigations showing that the so-called deep cervi...
متن کاملCarotid Endarterectomy under Regional Anesthesia
Regional anesthesia for carotid endarterectomy is a simple, reliable, and virtually complication-free technique. We began to perform a series of carotid endarterectomy under regional anesthesia at our institution in May 1990. This report describes our experience with 180 operated patients from May 1990 till December 1995, with regional anesthesia. All patients were operated with microsurgery an...
متن کاملCarotid endarterectomy for asymptomatic carotid stenosis: asymptomatic carotid surgery trial.
Effective prevention is inarguably the best option for reducing the individual and societal burden of stroke. For each patient, clinicians balance the benefits of a given preventive therapy against its associated risks and costs. Where possible, these assessments should be based on the results of randomized clinical trials. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA), the most-commonly used surgical procedure...
