Filter by:A prospective, multi-center, single-group target value method to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Aorta Arch Stent Graft System combined with the Endovascular Needle System in situ fenestration technology in the treatment of aortic dissection involving the aortic arch
Lung surgery, open aortic surgery, TEVAR, and EVAR are major operations that carry a higher incidence of perioperative mortality and complications compare to other surgery. The study of the incidence of mortality and complications will help the hospital to benchmark with the others. Also the study of the risk factors of mortality and major complications will help to improve the patients' outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the acceptable performance and safety of the ENSEAL X1 curved jaw tissue sealer and Ethicon endo-surgery generator G11 (GEN11) devices when used per the instructions for use (IFU).
Acute type A aortic dissection is often accompanied by postoperative hypoxemia, the cause of which is not fully understood. Angiotensin II is an important component of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), which has been suggested to be involved in the development of aortic dissection and pulmonary inflammation.The purpose of this study was to investigate the role and mechanism of angiotensin II pathway in postoperative hypoxemia after acute type A aortic dissection, and to provide reference for clinical application
From November 2004 to June 2020, there were more than 200 patients with acute TAAD patients who underwent aortic surgery at our hospital.Of all the patients in the study period, there were 34 patients (defined as study group) who sought for medical attention with symptoms for several days (median 5 days, range 3-7 days) or deferred aortic surgery several days later (median 3 days, range 2-7 days) even though acute TAAD was diagnosed on the same day when chest pain or back pain occurred. For reducing the selection bias, propensity score matching (PSM) was used to match the study group with the control group from all the patients treated at our hospital during the study period. Comparison between the two groups was performed.
The research aimed to predict postoperative acute kidney injury in patients with acute type A aortic dissection preliminarily by exploring the correlation of preoperative cystatin C level and incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury and combining with relevant risk factors.
Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) has become a standard of care in adults, pediatric surgeons have been slower to undertake this approach. There are limitations for working in children. The site of a chest tube becomes the working site for thoracoscopic surgery and the only scar. We propose this study to do a retrospective review comparing the conventional multiport thoracic surgery with the newer single port site.
XueBiJing, a Chinese herbal derived therapeutic, has been approved to treat severe infections (sepsis) in critically ill patients (China Food and Drug Administration; Beijing, China, Number Z20040033). Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) will produce large amounts of inflammatory mediators and oxygen free radicals, which causes the lipid peroxidation damage and mononuclear cell migration, thus aggravating organ inflammation and damage. Therefore, exploring new methods to prevent and alleviate organ injury caused by CPB is an important topi in clinical practice. However, little knowledge is regarding the effect of Xuebijing injection on CPB-related organ injury. To answer these questions, the authors conducted this randomized trial to compare XueBiJing with placebo in critically ill patients with cardiovascular surgery.
The NEOS-APAC post-market clinical follow-up study is undertaken to demonstrate the safety and clinical performance of E-vita OPEN NEO in the treatment of aneurysm or dissection in the ascending aorta, aortic arch and descending thoracic aorta.
Aortic arch repair surgery is a technically complex and challenging procedure to treat aortic pathologies. Despite advancements in perioperative care, detrimental neurological complications occur during or after surgery. The neurological complications increase the economic burden of healthcare, morbidity and quality of life for the patients, even if they survive. Stroke, for example, leads to an increase in healthcare and social care costs, requiring a subsequent lengthy rehabilitation. Milder neurological impairments include transient ischaemic attacks, confusion and delirium, necessitating longer intensive care and hospital stay. Currently applied cerebral monitoring modalities are electroencephalogram and cerebral oximetry. However, they are not specific enough to timely detect early cerebral ischaemia to prevent neurological complications. S100B protein and neuron-specific enolase are serum markers that reflect cerebral damage, however, their applicability in the hyperacute setting is limited. However, rapid measurements of glial fibrillary protein have paved new pathways to detect cerebral injury. Recent studies reveal more sensitive biomarkers of glucose, lactate, pyruvate, glutamate and glycerol. These biomarkers could potentially detect cerebral ischaemia on a near real-time basis using the microdialysis method. The aim of the project is to develop a bedside system for early detection of cerebral ischaemia on a near real-time basis during aortic arch surgery. Early detection of cerebral ischaemia could mandate more aggressive cerebral protection strategies by further optimisation of hypothermia and antegrade selective cerebral perfusion during surgery, and optimisation of blood pressure and oxygenation in the intensive care unit. Ultimately, early detection of cerebral ischemia during surgery will prevent disabling and costly neurological complications following surgery.
