Filter by:One consequence of tissue damage caused by tourniquet is ischemia-reperfusion injury. Short-term ischemia leads to vasodilatation and reactive hyperemia resulting in post-ischemic reperfusion microcirculation failure and tissue edema that extends from 30 minutes to 4 hours. SCUBE-1 is a newly defined cell surface molecule. It emerges from many developing cells, including endothelium and platelets. Immunohistochemical demonstration of subendothelial matrix deposition in atherosclerosis in humans. We did not find any study that showed the post-ischemic regression of scube 1, which was shown to be significantly higher in ischemic events in the literature. in this study is aimed to investigate the location / sensitivity of SCUBE-1 in diabetics and nondiabetics after application of regional anesthesia for ischemia-reperfusion injury induced by tourniquet application in knee prosthesis attempts in our aimed patients and compare this with other total antioxidant status (TAS) and MDA of ischemia-reperfusion parameters
this randomized controlled trial will compare the impact of routine use of completion angiography versus using it on selective bases after thromboembolectomy in patients with acute lower limb ischemia and their impact on limb salvage rates
Liver transplantation is the gold standard treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease. Despite its outstanding success, liver transplantation still entails certain complications including ischemia-reperfusion injury. Remote ischemic preconditioning is a novel and simple therapeutic method to lessen the harmful effects of ischemia-reperfusion injury, however, the majority of remote ischemic preconditioning studies on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury have been animal studies. Therefore, our aim was to assess the effects of remote ischemic preconditioning on postoperative liver function in living donor hepatectomy.
To evaluate, in a controlled setting, the early safety and effectiveness of the Penumbra/Indigo aspiration thrombectomy Systems (San Francisco, California), and to define optimal technique for the use of these systems in patients with confirmed peripheral acute occlusions.
Personalized therapy as prophylaxis in ischemic stroke patients is not yet an option. From patients with ischemic heart disease, we know that patients with in vitro high on treatment platelet reactivity (HTPR) have an increased risk of stent thrombosis following per-cutaneous coronary intervention. Other studies have shown association of CYP2C19 genotypes with different responses to the anti platelet drug Clopidogrel. We measure HTPR in ischemic stroke patients on increasing doses of clopidogrel and investigate the CYP2C19 genotype for each patient.
After PCI searching for target lesion ischemia with intracoronary ECG will be performed and if found it will be treated pharmacologically
A stroke is the second cause of deaths after heart attack, one of the most important causes of malfunction as far as adults are concerned and the second as for the frequency cause of dementia. In spite of a possibility of the therapy of stroke ( tissue plasminogen activator) and recognized most of risk factors there is expected that incidence rate on stroke connected with ageing of the society will be growing. It will cause medical and social consequences. There are many of potential causes of cardiac strokes, which are not entirely examined. More over many cryptogenic strokes are presumed to have an embolic etiology, and the frequent cause of these kind of strokes at young age is probably the mechanism of paradoxical embolism through patent foramen ovale. As far as the investigators are concerned, at present there is lack of any recommendations for these scientific hypothesis.
Stroke is one of the leading causes of death worldwide and the main cause of incapacity. Currently, the only therapies for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients are the administration of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) and/or endovascular treatment. Unfortunately, many patients cannot benefit from these therapies due to contraindications or evolution time. Neuroprotective therapies could not only increase the benefits of available reperfusion therapies but also provide an option for patients who are not candidates for these treatments. Remote ischemic conditioning, consisting on brief episodes of transient limb ischemia, represents a new paradigm in neuroprotection. It can be categorized in pre-, per- or postconditioning, depending on the moment of application. According to studies in coronary ischemia, remote ischemic perconditioning (RIPerC) during the ischemic event is safe, cost-effective, feasible and associated with a reduction in myocardial injury. The investigators aim to conduct a multicentre study (5 university hospitals) of pre-hospital RIPerC in AIS patients (within 8 hours of stroke onset), which would include 572 stroke code activated patients (286 would undergo RIPerC and 286 would be sham). Our hypothesis is that RIPerC would be safe and would induce endogenous neuroprotective phenomena associated with good outcomes in AIS patients whether treated with revascularization therapies or not. Moreover, the development of systemic ischemic tolerance should provide metabolomic and lipidomic signatures that would present an opportunity to find specific molecular markers (biomarkers). The main objectives will be to assess: 1) RIPerC clinical benefits in AIS, 2) whether RIPerC is safe not only in AIS but also in all cases of stroke code activation, 3) whether RIPerC is associated with a reduction in cerebral infarct size and 4) metabolomic and lipidomic signatures of the RIPerC effect.
This study evaluates the preoperative cardiovascular risk, the intraoperative hemodynamic characteristics and the surgical photo-plethysmographic index of patients undergoing general anesthesia for non-cardiac vascular surgery to develop a multiple variable model assessing the risk for postoperative myocardial ischemic events.
This feasibility study has therefore several aims: 1. construct a dedicated CT perfusion protocol for GIT wall perfusion; 2. used a two-compartment pharmacokinetic model which is more adapted that a unique compartment model; 3. from the image acquired, evaluate current parameters of perfusion including the permeability ones
