In adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery, does adding an sPIP block to standard care compared to standard care alone result in a smaller decrease in PFTs?
Prospective, single-center, clinical registry of patients with symptomatic/critical carotid artery stenosis at risk of stroke coexisting with unstable or multivessel severe coronary artery disease and/or severe valvular heart disease undergoing endovascular treatment of carotid atherosclerosis using a mesh stent in combination with cardiac surgery (coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or …
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 …
The objective of this single-center pilot study is, with the help of a connected watch, to show the absence of recurrence or maintenance of sinus rhythm in patients with a Post Operative Atrial Fibrillation (POAF) and to help treating cardiologists in the care of these patients.
This is a prospective, randomized, single blinded, controlled clinical trial designed to compare the clinical effects of sedation with dexmedetomidine versus propofol in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
The purpose of this study is evaluate goal-directed therapy with continuous central venous saturation compared to standard therapy in children undergoing cardiac surgery.
The central hypothesis of this research study is that perioperative administration of the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) pantoprazole could reduce the development of acute kidney injury (AKI) following cardiac surgery by activation molecular pathways for kidney protection. The investigators propose a single-center, randomized, controlled, single-blinded trial to determine whether perioperative …
The goal of this clinical trial is to is to test the safety of a new way to deliver a commonly used drug (amiodarone) used in heart surgery by placing a patch containing the drug directly on the heart instead of in an IV (vein). Participating subjects must be 20-85 …
Protamine sulfate is routinely used to reverse heparin anticoagulation after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The conventional dosing strategy of 1 mg protamine per 100 IU of heparin may result in excess protamine exposure, which has been associated with anticoagulant effects, platelet dysfunction, and hemodynamic instability. Recent evidence suggests that lower protamine …
Antibiotic prophylaxis is essential for all types of cardiac surgery under Extracorporeal Circulation (ECC), in order to reduce the incidence of surgical site infection (SSI). However, many patients are allergic to beta-lactam antibiotics. All the more, vancomycin antibiotic recommended as replacement is not without adverse effects and frequently administered in …
