This work aims to investigate the diuretic effect of Aminophylline in comparison to Furosemide in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgical procedures.
This is a first-in-human, prospective, single-arm, phase I clinical study evaluating the safety of the iPerf femoral arterial cannula in patients undergoing planned cardiac surgery requiring extracorporeal circulation (ECC) via a femoral approach for up to 6 hours. The iPerf device is a dual-lumen arterial cannula designed to provide systemic …
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) are part the multimodal strategy in pain management after surgery. However, major concerns are raised in cardiac surgery given the potential side effects of NSAID with more bleeding and acute kidney injury. The investigators hypothesized that NSAID are safe in the early postoperative course after cardiac …
The incidence of postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after on-pump cardiac surgery remains high, at around 30%. POAF increases the risk of cardiac decompensation, stroke, acute myocardial infarction, and death, resulting in increased morbidity and mortality, hospital length of stay, and cost of patient management. Episodes of POAF are usually paroxysmal …
Background and Significance: In the United States approximately 220,000 patients undergo cardiac surgery per annum. Among potential complications, the incidence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is estimated at 30 - 60 %, and therefore presents the most common adverse event after cardiac surgery. Multiple complications may be associated with AF: Patients …
Cardiac surgery is a critical intervention for a variety of cardiovascular conditions, yet it can frequently results in a spectrum of postoperative complications. Amongst various morbidities, Post-Operative Pulmonary Complications (POPCs) represent a significant clinical challenge leading to adverse outcomes like increased morbidity, mortality, and raised healthcare expenditures. The diaphragm, as …
Fluid overload (FO) is a common complication after cardiac surgery, associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Loop diuretics, especially furosemide, are routinely used to manage FO, but their use is often empirical. Recent data suggest that natriuresis-guided furosemide titration using point-of-care urinary sodium sensors (LAQUAtwin NA-11, Horiba) may improve the …
This is a sub-study of the Preoperative Combined Iron Therapy trail in which some participants will be additionally randomized to combined iron supplementation or standarded treatment control to evaluate the impact on long-term outcomes.
This study aims to learn more about blood management in children undergoing heart surgery, such as the right amounts, and the best blood products, to administer. It also aims to develop a mathematical model that may help researchers better predict and treat patients who need blood transfusions during heart surgery.
This prospective study investigate prognostic values and compare the role of nutritional status by using GNRI, MNA, and PNI in predicting post-operative pulmonary complication among elderly patients with cardiac surgery.
