Evaluation of Pro-Inflammatory Leukocyte Activity in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
The goal of this proposal is to prospectively collect data from a series of 100 patients (all ages) undergoing complex cardiac surgical procedures involving cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to Measure the number of blood activated circulating monocytes before, during and after cardiac surgery and serum GABA and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels Understand …
Frailty, Physical Capacity and Lung Function in Postoperative Cardiac Surgery Patients
The goal of this observational and prospective study is to investigate changes in physical performance, lung function, and respiratory and peripheral muscle strength in patients during the postoperative period following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and valve replacement surgery..
Cardiac Biomarkers for the Quantification of Myocardial Damage After Cardiac Surgery
The aim of the study is to clarify whether the perioperative release of the cardiac biomarkers troponin I, troponin T and CK-MB consistently correlate with visualizable myocardial damage, and to what extent these biomarkers are comparable by means of their kinetics and dynamics. Due to the uncertainty regarding the validity …
Postoperative Clinical and Neurophysiological Assessment of Patients After Open Heart Surgery
This study aims to investigate postoperative clinical, cognitive and neurophysiological assessment of patients after open heart surgery among sample of Egyptian patients.
CEReBral AutorEgulation in Non-cardiac SuRgery and Relationship to Postoperative DeliriUm State
The goal of this observational study is to learn the how to determine the mean arterial pressure(MAP) or blood pressure level to be maintained during non-cardiac surgery for optimal brain health in patients above the age of 60 undergoing major non-cardiac surgery. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: …
Quality of Life in Patients With Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery
Prospective observational study on quality of life with postoperative atrial fibrillation after cardiac surgery using SF-36 and qualitative questions
Evaluation of the HPA Axis in Patients With Vasoplegic Syndrome After Cardiac Surgery
Vasoplegic syndrome after cardiac surgery is common and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. It is characterized by early and prolonged arterial hypotension, with preserved cardiac output and low systemic vascular resistance. Vasoplegic syndrome therefore shares pathophysiological features with septic shock. There are no data in the literature on …
Should we Avoid Performing Invasive Coronary Angiography Before Cardiac Surgery in ACHD Patients?
The goal of this observational study is to compare two pre-operative methods, that is the Invasive Coronary Angiography (ICA), an actual standard diagnostic method, with the Coronary Computer Tomography (CCT) to undestand if the only CCT is sufficent to confirm the presence of a significative coronary disease and so to …
Long Term Cardiovascular Disease Event Risk for Patients Undergoing Major Non-Cardiac Surgery
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether the healthy lifestyle choices made around surgery can influence an individual's long term risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Patients will be observed 1-month prior to and 3-months following surgery to assess their risk of developing cardiovascular disease.
Baseline Atrial Fibrosis Predicts Risk for Post-operative Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
The study aims to evaluate and compare the incidence of atrial arrhythmias (including Post-Operative Atrial Fibrillation (POAF), atrial flutter, and atrial tachycardia) stratified by baseline Utah fibrosis stages and overall fibrosis (%) of the left atrial wall area. The investigators hypothesize that patients with a higher baseline Utah fibrosis staging …
