Incidence, survival and determinants of mortality following mesenteric angiography and continuous intra-arterial prostaglandin E1 perfusion for non-occlusive mesenterial ischaemia in cardiac surgery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods Our aim was to evaluate the incidence of NOMI, to analyze results of treatment and to identify variables associated with mortality. Hospital records and clinical data of patients treated for NOMI during the last 12 years were reviewed. Clinical outcomes and factors influencing mortality were studied. Statistical analysis was performed to determine the significance of risk factors on mortality with Fisher exact test or c2 test in categorical variables. Wilcoxon rank test was used to test the continuous variables.

Mesenteric ischemia after coronary artery bypass grafting: should local continuous intra-arterial perfusion with papaverine be regarded as a treatment?
Mesenteric ischemia after cardiac surgery is rare but dramatic. We present a patient who had acute mesenteric ischemia following low cardiac output after coronary artery bypass grafting. Our patient was successfully treated with continuous intra-arterial perfusion with papaverine. We think that selective angiography must be performed as early as mesenteric ischemia is suspected, to get earlier ...
متن کاملAcute mesenteric ischaemia.
The experience of acute mesenteric ischaemia at St Vincent's Hospital, Melbourne, has been reviewed over 17 years. The mortality remains appallingly high. This applies particularly to those patients who had thrombosis of the superior mesenteric artery, amongst whom the mortality in this series was 97%. The mortality was slightly less in the group suffering from embolic occlusion of the superior...
متن کاملSelective angiography in acute mid-gut ischaemia.
Acute mesenteric ischaemia has a high mortality. Early diagnosis and treatment appropriate to the type and extent of vascular insufficiency are essential. Selective angiography can establish the diagnosis and distinguish patients with acute vascular occlusion who require urgent surgery from those with non-occlusive ischaemia for which early surgery is contraindicated.

Non-occlusive mesenteric ischemia (NOMI) refers to all types of mesenteric ischemia without any organic blockage of blood vessels. It is usually seen in elderly age group with risk factors of previous myocardial infarction, congestive cardiac failure, aortic insufficiency, renal or liver impairment and post-cardiac surgery. Amongst all the cases of acute mesenteric ischemia, NOMI constitutes 20...
متن کاملReview article: diagnosis and management of mesenteric ischaemia with an emphasis on pharmacotherapy.
Mesenteric ischaemia results from decreased blood flow to the bowel, causing cellular injury from lack of oxygen and nutrients. Acute mesenteric ischaemia (AMI) is an uncommon disorder with high morbidity and mortality, but outcomes are improved with prompt recognition and aggressive treatment. Five subgroups of AMI have been identified, with superior mesenteric artery embolism (SMAE) the most ...
