Effect of Stress Ball During Chest Tube Removal After Open Heart Surgery
15 minutes before the procedure, nurses (FEÖ and NT) will explain and demonstrate how to use the stress ball. The stress ball will be applied for approximately five minutes, including the chest tube removal procedure. A round, medium-hard, high-quality silicone ball, approximately 6 cm in diameter, will be used. Patients …
Optimal Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Anticoagulation Management Strategies in Obese Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery
Standard Heparin management, based on total body weight, is not well established for obese patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of using lean body mass (LBM) to determine pump flow rate and/or Heparin dosage in obese …
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 …
ESP Versus PIFB for Analgesia in Open Cardiac Surgery: a Randomized Control Trial
This clinical trial compares analgesia efficiency and recovery outcomes between two different fascial plane block techniques (ESPB vs.PIFB) in cardiac surgery patients participant population/health conditions\]. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does ESPB provide superior analgesia than PIFB Do patients who receive ESPB have better recovery outcomes
The Effect of Colchicine on the Occurrence of Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery
Development of a new comprehensive method for perioperative prevention of atrial fibrillation paroxysms in cardiac surgery patients at the hospital stage. It is planned to recruit 70 patients who will undergo pericardial fenestration during the operation using the original technique during coronary artery bypass grafting (Patent No. 2647626 C1 Russian …
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.
Preoperative Deep Parasternal Intercostal Plane Block and Intraoperative Opioid Use in Cardiac Surgery
Median sternotomy is commonly used in cardiac surgery and is associated with significant intraoperative and postoperative pain, often requiring substantial opioid administration. High opioid use during cardiac surgery may contribute to adverse effects such as respiratory depression, delayed extubation, postoperative nausea and vomiting, and prolonged intensive care unit stay. Therefore, …
ANG-First Trial (Angiotensin II as First-Line Vasopressor Therapy in Cardiac Surgery)
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the use of Angiotensin II in patients with low blood pressure post-surgery. Your information will be collected for 28 days post the procedure and initiation of the study drug to assess for safety events and complications.
Effect of Methylprednisolone on Systemic Inflammatory Response During Pediatric Congenital Open-Heart Surgery
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of steroids on the early postoperative inflammatory response in patients undergoing elective pediatric congenital cardiac surgery, requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
