Failure to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass after myocardial revascularization: successful treatment with verapamil via the aortic root.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Severe ventricular dysfunction in a patient prevented weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass after myocardial revascularization. Calcium chloride and increasing doses of dopamine had no effect. Coronary vasospasm was diagnosed based on ST elevation and myocardial failure. Verapamil 0.5 mg, injected into the aortic root, was followed by a dramatic improvement in cardiac contractility and successful weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass without inotropic support.

Background & Aim: Intra-aortic ballon pump(IABP) is a mechanical device that has become an accepted treatment modality for patients with severely compromised hemodynamics. The present retrospective study was undertaken to identify the major survival and nonsurvival determinants of patients who were in need of intra-aortic ballon pump support after cardiac surgery. Patients & Methods: Th...
متن کاملBeating Heart Mitral Valve Replacement Surgery without Aortic Cross-Clamping via Right Thoracotomy in a Patient with Compromised Left Ventricular Functions
Global myocardial ischemia and ischemia-reperfusion injury are potential adverse events related with cardioplegic arrest. Beating heart surgery has avoided such complications and adapted to valve surgery following successful results published on myocardial revascularization. Difficulty in weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass may be lessened by using on-pump beating heart surgery for mitral valve...
متن کاملUncommon causes of hemodynamic instability during myocardial revascularization without cardiopulmonary bypass.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Myocardial revascularization (MR) in patients with ventricular hypertrophy and/or dysfunction is frequently performed without cardiopulmonary bypass (CB), since it can be difficult to wean those patients off CB. Intraoperative control demands strict hemodynamic adjustment, as well as partial clamping of the aorta to minimize hemodynamic changes. The objective of this s...
متن کاملRescue transcatheter aortic valve implantation and simultaneous percutaneous coronary intervention on cardiopulmonary bypass in a patient with an extreme risk profile.
We report on successful emergency transcatheter aortic valve implantation combined with percutaneous coronary revascularization in a polymorbid and preterminal patient in profound cardiogenic shock and with multiorgan failure. The risk scores were almost unbelievably high (Society of Thoracic Surgeons mortality score, 83.9%; Society of Thoracic Surgeons morbidity and mortality score, 96.8%; log...
متن کاملDoes pulmonary artery venting decrease the incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation after conventional aortocoronary bypass surgery?
OBJECTIVES In this study, we tested the hypothesis that pulmonary artery venting would decrease the incidence of atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass surgery. METHODS This prospective study included 301 patients who underwent complete myocardial revascularization with cardiopulmonary bypass in our department during a 2-year period. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups:...
