Filter by:The study will analyze the incidence, clinical outcomes and predictors of myocardial injury in a large patient population with COVID-19 treated in Mount Sinai Hospital (MSH) system. In addition, the study team will explore the association between high-sensitivity troponin I (TnI) levels and clinical characteristics, biomarkers, cardiac tests data and treatment approaches to uncover the potential mechanisms responsible for COVID-19 induced myocardial injury.
Eighty patients were randomly assigned to either control (CON) or dexmedetomidine (DEX) group. DEX group received a loading dose of 0.5 µg/ kg of intravenous dexmedetomidine over 10 minutes, followed by a continuous infusion of 0.5 µg/kg/h until completion of the surgery. CON group received the same calculated volume of normal saline. Pain outcomes, metabolic and coagulative changes after tourniquet application, and after tourniquet release were investigated.
Background. Cardiopulmonary bypass in on-pump cardiac surgery (OPCS) can have harmful effects by ischemia-reperfusion. No data about the effects of remote ischemic postconditioning (RIP) in hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) plasma level after OPCS. The aim of this study is evaluate the effects of RIP on postoperative HIF-1α plasma levels, cardiac markers and arterial oxygenation of patients after OPCS. Methods. Randomised controlled study in 70 patients undergoing OPCS: 35 patients receive RIP (RIP group) and 35 patients not (control group). Patients receive RIP on upper limb: 5 min of ischemia followed by 5 min of reperfusion (3 cycles) immediately after leaving on-pump. The primary outcome was to know the HIF-1α plasma levels after surgery in both groups: before starting surgery (T0) and after CPB period at 2 h (T1), 8 h (T2), 24 h (T3), 36 h (T4), 48 h (T5). Secondary outcomes included to measure the cardiac markers levels (Troponin T, CK-MB, CPK), arterial oxygenation (PaO2/FiO2) and others.
Severe ischemic changes of the liver remnant after hepatectomy could expedite tumor recurrence on the residual liver. Our study aimed at assessing the effect of warm ischemic/reperfusion (I/R) injuries on surgery-to-local recurrence interval and patient overall survival, during major hepatectomies under inflow and outflow vascular control.
This study aimed to detect tongue edema associated with the pressure exerted by a rigid direct laryngoscope by measuring the tongue area using USG in patients undergoing suspension laryngoscopy (SL) procedures.
Hepatectomies are considered as operations of high bleeding risk. The history of massive hemorrhage in liver surgery led to the emergence of techniques to control excessive blood loss. These techniques temporarily occlude the blood vessels that supply liver (the Pringle Maneuver) limiting subsequent losses. However, this leads to the ischemia - reperfusion injury impairing liver function. Research points to methods targeting on tempering reperfusion pathophysiology. Volatile anesthetics have been used for pharmacological preconditioning and proved to protect against organ damage. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential beneficial effect of desflurane on ischemia-reperfusion injury of the liver. Patients presenting for elective hepatectomy were randomized equally into two groups. The Control Group received no pharmacological preconditioning and the Desflurane Group received pharmacological preconditioning with Desflurane before induction of ischemia.
A group of 150 patients undergoing aortic valve replacement procedure will be randomized either into del Nido cardioprotection protocol (75 participants) or into the cold blood cardioplegia protocol (75 participants). The intraoperative and perioperative outcomes of using each solution will be presented and compared (see the endpoints).
Investigation of the effect of intraoperative lung protection high PEEP maneuver on ischemic reperfusion injury in patients undergoing pulmonary endarterectomy.
Endothelial damage has been reported after ischemia-reperfusion events. This can be characterized by measurements of glycocalyx and endothelial components that are released to blood after the insult. Sevoflurane and inhaled anesthetic commonly used for surgery have shown protective endothelial effects in animal and in-vitro models. Knee-ligament surgery with the use of a femoral tourniquet generates a transient ischemia-reperfusion (IR) state after the tourniquet is released. This research aims to compare the effect of sevoflurane and propofol in the release of glycocalyx and endothelial biomarkers after IR in this surgical scenario.
The on-going randomized clinical trial TTM2 (Target Hypothermia Versus Targeted Normothermia After Out-of-hospital Cardiac Arrest, NCT02908308) investigates if there is a difference in mortality, neurological function or quality of life in comatose survivors after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest if treated (Group A) at target temperature of 33 oC or (Group B) by avoiding fever during the first 24 h. In this sub study, the effect of different target temperatures on cardiac and circulatory physiology is evaluated by echocardiography and pulmonary artery catheter. Tissue damage after cardiac arrest in part is caused by an activation of different parts of the inflammatory system (reperfusion injury). This study investigates the effect of temperature management on inflammation and the link to the circulatory effects.
