Successful weaning from mechanical ventilation after coronary angioplasty.

چکیده
Weaning failure can be caused by myocardial ischaemia during the switch from mechanical to spontaneous ventilation. We report ischaemic left ventricular failure and ischaemic mitral insufficiency during weaning. Angiography showed that the coronary vessels were stenosed. Transluminal angioplasty made weaning possible. We conclude that acute ischaemic mitral insufficiency may contribute to cardiac failure during weaning and that angioplasty, by reversing it, can allow successful weaning.

Abstract Aim. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of protocol of weaning from mechanical ventilation on the gastrointestinal function in people undergoing CABG. Background. The most common problems after cardiac surgery in the intensive care unit are change in vital signs, respiratory problems, unsuccessful separation from mechanical ventilation, and gastrointestinal problems. Due t...
متن کاملComparison of the effect of pressure support ventilation and volume assured pressure support ventilation on weaning patients off mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery
Background: Weaning from mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit is an important step in the treatment process. More patients in less than 6 hours after cardiac surgery can be separated from mechanical ventilation and extubated. However, 20-40% of patients after cardiac surgery, due to dysfunctional ventilator weaning response (DVWR), still remain under mechanical ventilation. Therefo...
متن کاملAutomated Weaning from Mechanical Ventilation after Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
BACKGROUND The discontinuation of mechanical ventilation after coronary surgery may prolong and significantly increase the load on intensive care unit personnel. We hypothesized that automated mode using INTELLiVENT-ASV can decrease duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation, reduce workload on medical staff, and provide safe ventilation after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPC...
متن کاملSpontaneous ventilation test vs intermittent mandatory ventilation. An approach to weaning after coronary bypass surgery.
T he timing of tracheal extubation after open heart surgery may accelerate recovery without increasing mortality. However, the manner of weaning from controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) varies widely in different centers. Since 1972 an alternative means of ventilatory “support” advocated is that of intermittent mandatory ventilation ( IMV), in which an inadequate minute volume produced by t...

An 80-year-old diabetic man with severe aortic stenosis was admitted to our hospital for cardiogenic shock complicating non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction. Echocardiographic evaluation showed also a severe degree of both left ventricular dysfunction and mitral regurgitation. The patient was initially stabilized with inotropes and mechanical ventilation was necessary because of concurrent pu...
