This is a prospective, randomized study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of post-surgical pain control of a type of peripheral nerve block, Rectus Sheath Block. Does the rectus sheath block decrease opioid consumption postoperatively after cardiac surgery? Does the rectus sheath block decrease VAS pain …
This randomized, prospective, single-blinded study aims to compare the efficacy of ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane (SAP) block combined with serratus-intercostal interfascial plane (SIP) block versus local wound infiltration (LWI) for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS). The primary outcome is total perioperative and postoperative opioid consumption. …
This randomized controlled study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intraoperative and early postoperative hemoadsorption using the Efferon® LPS device in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass in reducing the incidence and severity of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in the postoperative period. Each patient in the …
The purpose of this prospective randomized clinical trial is to evaluate three different types of hyperinflation respiratory therapies, Intermittent Positive Pressure Breathing (IPPB), Intermittent positive end expiratory pressure (EzPAP), Metaneb. Investigators will examine which hyperinflation therapy provides better lung expansion and may improve lung recovery after surgery.
The aims of this study are: i) to assess cerebral autoregulation and autonomic control within the different phases of cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass; ii) to compare cerebral autoregulation measures derived via cerebral blood flow velocity estimated by transcranial Doppler device with simpler measurements derived from near infrared spectroscopy; iii) …
Cardiac surgery is a bleeding-risk surgery and frequently requires blood transfusion. Intraoperative autotransfusion devices are used to aspirate, process and retransfuse patients' blood. These devices are effective in recovering red blood cells and limiting the need for transfusion of packed red blood cells. Some devices, such as I-SEP's SAME®, can …
The aim of this observational cohort study is to evaluate the effect of high-dose versus low-dose propofol infusion on the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The study also seeks to assess the predictive performance of the Apfel and Koivuranta risk …
Intraoperative hemodynamic instability (IOHI) is a common occurrence during cardiac surgery and is associated with organ hypoperfusion. However, the specific impact of IOHI on composite adverse outcomes remains unclear. This prospective cohort study aims to evaluate the association between intraoperative hemodynamic instability (defined as MAP \< 65 mmHg or vasopressor …
This study aims to investigate the impact of multiple preoperative antihyperstensive drug use on the burden of post-induction hypotension (PIH) in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. The researchers will observe whether the combination of different antihypertensive classes (such as ACE inhibitors, ARBs, beta-blockers, and calcium channel blockers) leads to a …
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is a common central nervous system complication after surgery and anesthesia. Its primary clinical manifestations include a significant decline in cognitive abilities after surgery and anesthesia, encompassing memory, attention, coordination, orientation, language fluency, and executive function. POCD may persist for weeks or even years, affecting patient …
