Filter by:This study examines subclinical lymphatic abnormalities in Tetralogy of Fallot patients, utilizing lymphatic magnetic resonance and near-infrared fluorescence imaging.
Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) were cyanotic congenital heart disease with chronic hypoxia which increases the risk of exacerbated inflammatory response in ToF primary repair. Various studies have recently shown inflammatory biomarkers to predict morbidity and mortality in hypoxemic patients, but they are not readily available and expensive.This study aims to compare the prognostic value of neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), and thrombocyte-lymphocyte ratio (TLR) in predicting ToF primary repair outcomes. This was a retrospective observational study on ToF primary repair in National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita between Januari 2020 until December 2022. Preoperative NLR, ALC, and TLR were derived from blood test obtained <14 days before surgery. The primary endpoints were redo surgery, 30-day mortality, and complications. The secondary endpoints were hospital length of stay (HLOS) and postoperative LOS.
The study aimed to evaluate the combined effects of cyclosporine and remote ischemic preconditioning on MDA, calcium cytosol concentration, and mitochondrial edema in tetralogy Fallot patients undergoing corrective surgery.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common congenital abnormality found in newborns with Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) being the most common cyanotic CHD. Total correction of TOF was performed using a cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) machine. However, the use of CPB has a negative effect that causes inflammation and myocardial injury. Myocardial protection in patients undergoing total correction of TOF surgery is more difficult than other cyanotic CHD due to a hypertrophic right ventricular condition. Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is a selective α-2 adrenergic, which has major effects including hypnosis, sedation, and analgesia as well as cardiovascular effects. The sedation is induced by stimulating the α-2 adrenergic receptor in the locus coeruleus (LC) in the pons cerebri. DEX also increases the level of GABA and Galanin and reduces endogenous norepinephrine. The lower level of endogenous norepinephrine decreases the afterload of the ventricles, increases cardiac output, and reduces myocardial injury as a result. Furthermore, the peripheral effects of DEX can reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MIR) by inhibiting NF-кB pathway activation and reducing the number of pro-inflammatory cytokines released. Thus, the administration of DEX can prevent myocardial necrosis and apoptosis, also reducing reperfusion injury when using CPB machines. Research related to the effectiveness of administering DEX as a myocardial protector in classic TOF patients undergoing elective total correction cardiac surgery in Indonesia is less reported. The aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of DEX as myocardial protector in classic TOF patients undergoing elective total correction cardiac surgery.
In the presented study TDI will be used as a modern technique to characterize RV-function in Fallot patients at rest and during different exercise conditions.
The aim is to conduct a prospective multi-centre international inception cohort study with an enrollment goal of 3,000 TOF patients and 2 year follow-up post-repair. The proposed sample size and methodology will result in statistically powerful results to allow for evidence-based change to current TOF surgical practices.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the correlation between fluid volume status and right ventricular volume and function, in those with free pulmonary valve insufficiency after Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair.
The aim is to compare effective growth true hypoplastic pulmonary arteries using Right Ventricle Outflow Tract Reconstruction by femoral allogenic vein valve conduit and systemic-to-pulmonary artery shunts (modified Blalock-Taussig shunt)
Myocardial protection and clinical outcome in patients Undergoing tetralogy of fallot repair: a randomized study of Two cardioplegic techniques.
In this controlled trial, patients with tetralogy of Fallot will be randomized to either interval training, continuous training, or usual care groups.
