Abstract:

On reviewing the medical literature, there is a clear resurgence of interest in the use of TEA (thoracic epidural analgesic) in cardiac anaesthesia. This resurgence was brought about by laboratory-based evidence that TEA-induced sympatholysis may be cardioprotective through the promotion of myocardial blood flow to areas at-risk and subsequent early, small clinical studies suggesting that TEA was feasible, and possibly also beneficial in CABG surgery [Joachimsson et. al, 1989; Liem (1-3) et. al, 1992; Stenseth et. al, 1994]. Despite the positive results of these early studies and suggestions t

Abstract:

Despite the benefits of coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG), graft closure can still occur and lead to the development of unstable angina, myocardial infarction (MI) and death. Secondary prevention is thus greatly needed in order to prevent future cardiovascular events in the post-CABG patient. Few studies have examined the benefits of cardiac medical therapy specifically among CABG patients. A review of randomized controlled trials (RCT's) was first conducted in order to understand what constitutes appropriate cardiac medical therapy in the post-CABG patient.<br>The use of aspi

Bakgrund: Postoperativa sårinfektioner [PSI] är en allvarlig komplikation och ett hälsoproblem som orsakar lidande för patienten. Såsom vid alla operativa ingrepp förekommer en risk att få PSI i operationssåret/-såren efter Coronary Artery Bypass Graft [CABG], men det finns redan en rad kända riskfaktorer som ökar risken för PSI. Syfte och metod: Syftet med rapporten var att undersöka om kombinationen av ett antal sedan tidigare kända riskfaktorer ökade risken för PSI efter CABG på ett mellansvenskt sjukhus åren 2009-2012.

When all pre-surgical variables where included in a multiple linear regression, the analysis yielded a model that included the prior to surgery VSAQ, orthopedic limitations, and angiotensin converting enzymes (ACE) inhibitor drugs as significant predictors (R2 = 0.50, N = 63).

Abstract:

IntroductionCoronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is associated with periods of ischaemia and reperfusion, which may lead to myocardial dysfunction. In clinical studies, hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) treatment following an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), has been shown to limit myocardial injury and improve myocardial function. The primary efficacy objective of this study was to determine if systemically preconditioning coronary artery disease (CAD) patients with HBO2, prior to first time elective on cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) CABG surgery, leads to a remote preconditioning like effect that is c

Abstract:

Coronary artery bypass surgery is a life saving surgical solution for patients presented with greater than 70% occluded or stenosed arteries. For these patients, autologous vein is the graft of choice. Alarmingly, 5-30% of patients have no suitable veins available due to previous use or diseased vein wall, thus the critical clinical need for nonthrombogenic vascular grafts is underscored. Our group has synthesised and patented a nanocomposite polymer based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane modified polycarbonate urea-urethane (POSS-PCU) nanocomposite polymer.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) affects millions of people worldwide. Many of these people require treatment for their condition, and for roughly a million individuals each year, this treatment includes coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery - a procedure that aims to restore proper blood flow to the arteries of the heart. Although the physical impact of CVD and CABG surgery are well-known, their cognitive impact has not been clearly established. Recent studies suggest that both CVD and CABG surgery may have a detrimental effect on neuropsychological functioning. The first goal of the presen
