Venous Congestion And Delirium After Cardiac Surgery
Postoperative delirium (POD) is an acute brain dysfunction characterized by inattention, impaired consciousness, and cognitive and orientation disturbances, and is a common complication after cardiac surgery. The high incidence of up to 52% of POD in cardiac surgery patients lead to a range of adverse clinical outcomes.The brain tissue is …
Effect of the Combined Programme on Perioperative Anaemia（CPPA）
We used the preoperative intervention of iron sucrose in combination with human erythropoietin and vitamin C as an innovative combination therapy. This combined treatment strategy aims to improve perioperative anaemia in patients by promoting erythropoiesis and improving iron metabolism. Compared with previous perioperative intravenous iron supplementation, this innovative combination therapy …
Evaluation of Blood and Cardiac Protein O-GlcNAcylation Levels in Cardiac Surgery in Children
Cardiac surgery requires the use of extracorporeal circulation (ECC). Age-related differences in inflammatory response, the greater susceptibility of immature organ systems to injury and the larger ratio of extracorporeal circuitry to patient size make younger and smaller patients more vulnerable to organ injury. The main problem associated with ECC in …
Anticoagulation and Inflammation Monitoring in Patients After Heart and Vascular Interventions
The goal of this prospective observational study is to evaluate the most appropriate anticoagulation monitoring tool for unfractionated heparin (UFH), by comparison of different monitoring modalities in relation to adverse events occurrence (thrombosis/bleeding). The main study questions are: What is the most appropriate anticoagulation monitoring tool (ACT, aPTT, viscoelastic tests …
Remimazolam Besylate in Sedation of Postcardioperative Patients
Intensive care medicine is vital in managing patients after cardiac surgery with endotracheal intubation，in order to provide extensive monitoring to assure clinical stabilization. During this time of recovery, sedation is frequently employed. However, prolonged sedation risks negative sequelae.At present,propofol, benzodiazepines, and dexmedetomidine are typical drugs used for sedation of patients …
Cardiopulmonary Bypass Induced Red Blood Cell Lysis
Studying the dynamics of red blood cell lysis, pfH, protective proteins and organ injury, limits will be set for safe levels of pfH following the use of CPB. These results will be compared to existing laboratory-based methods for determining red blood cell damage to predict CPB assist device safety. Further, …
Exploring if Patients Can Safely and Easily Swab Their Own Surgical Wounds at Home
The goal of this observational feasibility study is to learn if patients can safely, acceptably, and effectively collect their own wound swabs at home to detect clinically significant organisms in adults aged 18 and over who have had cardiac surgery via median sternotomy (central chest wound). Participants will be recruited …
Efficacy of Carbohydrate Loading in Diabetic Type 2 Patients Undergoing CABG Surgery on CPB
Enhanced recovery after surgery protocols aim to optimize perioperative care and improve surgical outcomes. Preoperative carbohydrate loading has demonstrated benefits in reducing insulin resistance and improving patient outcomes. While non-diabetic patients benefit from this approach, its efficacy in diabetic type 2 patients undergoing CABG remains less understood. This study aims …
The Role of Neuroinflammation on Neurocognitive Outcome in Cardiac Surgery
RATIONALE: Postoperative cognitive changes are common after cardiac surgery and can be categorised into three main types: postoperative delirium (POD), delayed neurocognitive recovery (DNCR) and postoperative neurocognitive disorder (PNCD). DNCR is diagnosed until postoperative day 30 and PNCD is diagnosed at least 30 days after the operation. Both conditions can …
LSALT Peptide for Prevention or Attenuation of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) in Patients Undergoing On-Pump Cardiac Surgery
To evaluate the percentage of subjects with AKI within 7 days following on-pump cardiac surgery defined by the KDIGO (Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes) criteria: Increase in baseline (pre-surgery) serum creatinine (SCr) by ≥26.5 μmol/L (≥0.3 mg/dL) within 7 days; OR Increase in baseline SCr to ≥1.5 times baseline, which …
