Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a complication of cardiac surgery that can affect outcome. Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is a technology that uses light to determine how well oxygenated tissues are. This technology is routinely used in cardiac surgery to measure the oxygen level in the brain by placing a …
The START-POAF pilot study is a prospective, open-label two-arm, randomized controlled trial with blinded assessment of outcomes (PROBE). This pilot study will assess Atrial Fibrillation (AF) recurrence and burden in patients with new-onset AF following cardiac surgery.
To determine the combined effects of 4-7-8 breathing technique and stationary cycle on physical performance, quality of life and dyspnea in post CABG patients.
This research focuses on understanding the vasoplegic syndrome after cardiac surgery under extracorporeal circulation and in the aftermath of your surgery in the ICU. The investigators evaluate variations in a number of clinical and biological parameters during cardiac surgery and in the 48 hours following resuscitation. In addition to all …
Neurodevelopmental impairment due to delayed brain development and brain injury is a fundamental problem in children with critical congenital heart disease (CCHD). Significant longterm motor-, cognitive-, and behavioral problems are the result of early postnatally and perioperatively induced brain injury. Allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor, prevents the formation of toxic …
Post-operative delirium (POD) is known to be independently associated with pre-operative frailty, pre-operative cognitive status and per-operative ElectroEncephaloGram (EEG). However, no study has focused on the impact of these pre- and peri-operative outcomes on the prediction of Post-operative delirium (POD). Therefore, this study has been designed to assess the performance …
This study is a non-inferiority, randomized controlled trial, based on the hypothesis that 4-factor PCC is not inferior to FFP in reducing perioperative blood loss in patients undergoing cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass. 816 subjects will be randomly divided into 2 groups (group PCC and group FFP), with 408 cases …
Perioperative neurological complications in cardiovascular surgical procedures are associated with a significant risk of mortality and disability. This study is aimed at identifying the specific risk factors associated with these neurological complications during the perioperation and developing a comprehensive predictive model designed to enhance clinical decision-making and improve patient safety. …
The study intervention focuses on exploring the use of angiotensin II as a primary vasopressor compared to norepinephrine in cardiac surgery patients to investigate whether angiotensin II can reduce the occurrence of moderate/severe acute kidney injury (AKI). Despite its potential, as suggested by trials involving surgical patients, there is currently …
A difficult airway is a clinical condition that occurs when one or more of the components of difficult mask ventilation, difficult laryngoscopy, difficult endotracheal intubation, difficult supraglottic airway device (SGA) placement, and inability to intubate-oxygenate are present. Data concerning incidence of difficult airway in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery is controversial. …
