چکیده

The need for venting the heart during cardiopulmonary bypass has been the topic of continued debate. Potential disadvantages and drawbacks have been noted with traditional modes for venting. A technique for venting the heart is presented using a pulmonary artery catheter. The relative advantages and merits of this approach are discussed.

Left ventricular postoperative false aneurysm following apical venting

We report a case of false aneurysm of the left ventricle occurring subsequently to the placing of a vent sump line through the apex during an aortic valve procedure; the diagnosis was made twelve months later during a routine echocardiographic examination. The lesion was successfully repaired. This case recommend the use of other routes of venting in order to reduce the incidence of such compli...

اندازه گیری فشار شریان ریوی توسط داپلر و مقایسه آن با روش کاتتریسم

Pulmonary artery pressure can be estimated from right ventricular-right atrial pressure gradient in patients with tricuspid regurgitation. The most common approach is to estimate pulmonary artery systolic pressure from right ventricular pressure (assuming no pulmonic stenosis) determined as the sum of the right ventricular-right atrial pressure gradient and either an assumed or clinically deter...

Left ventricular aneurysms associated with intraoperative venting of the cardiac apex in children.

Left ventricular (LV) apical aneurysms were observed in 16 of 50 (32%) children (average age 8 years) consecutively catheterized after surgical repair of congenital heart disease. The LV apex was vented by a sump during cardiopulmonary bypass in each. The aneurysms varied in size, but were generally small. Average dimensions were 7.5 X 6.8 mm in the anteroposterior projection and 8.9 X 5.7 mm i...

Does 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:...
