One-year Patency Comparison Between Radial Artery and No-touch Saphenous Vein Grafts in Women Undergoing Isolated CABG
The use of a graft from the left internal thoracic artery to the left anterior descending artery has become the gold standard for the indication of coronary artery bypass grafting. However, choosing a graft for the second-best coronary artery, focusing on long-term patency, is still a challenge. The saphenous vein …
Sex Differences in Myocardial Steatosis Induced Left Ventricular Dysfunction
To test the specific research questions, healthy men and age-matched healthy premenopausal females will be enrolled. Subjects will undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy (MRI/MRS) to evaluate cardiac morphology/function and fat metabolism. To acutely elevate myocardial triglyceride content, subjects will be asked to abstain from eating for 2 days …
Fresh Autologous Whole Blood Transfusion After Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Autologous blood transfused at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass will reduce total blood loss 24 hours after surgery and improve mitochondrial oxygen delivery measured by plasma succinate levels. The study design is a prospective randomized interventional trial of transfusion of fresh autologous whole blood versus standard of care expectant management …
Comparison of the Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Training and Baduanjin Exercises in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Patients
The study aims to compare the effects of inspiratory muscle training and Baduanjin exercises on pulmonary function, exercise capacity, and quality of life in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. By investigating these interventions, the investigators seek to introduce novel approaches that can enhance pulmonary function, exercise capacity, and overall quality of …
Rectus Sheath Block in Cardiac Surgery
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 …
