Conventional Hemofiltration During Cardiopulmonary Bypass Increases the Serum Lactate Level in Adult Cardiac Surgery.
This study evaluated the effect of hemofiltration during cardiopulmonary bypass on lactate level in adult patients who underwent cardiac surgery.
Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Support in Post-Traumatic Cardiopulmonary Failure: A 10-Year Single Institutional Experience
Patients with multiple traumas associated with cardiopulmonary failure have a high mortality rate; however, such patients can be temporarily stabilized using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), providing a bridge to rescue therapy.
The Basic Science of Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate in Chondral Injuries
There has been great interest in bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) as a cost effective method in delivering mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to aid in the repair and regeneration of cartilage defects.
Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate for the Treatment of Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus: A Systematic Review of Outcomes
The goal of this perform a systematic review on the outcomes of bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) for the treatment of chondral defects and osteoarthritis (OA) of the talus.
Coronary Artery Spasm Following On-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting with 20 Months Follow-Up
The gold standard for revealing coronary artery spasm (CAS) is emergency coronary angiography (CAG) . Infusion of vasodilators combined with IABP is adequate in most instances, but extracorporeal membrane oxygenation has been necessary for more extensive or resistant coronary spasm.
Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: Cannulation Techniques
The development of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) technology allows a new approach for the intensive care management of acute cardiac and/or respiratory failure in adult patients who are not responsive to conventional treatment.
Prophylactic Furosemide Infusion Decreasing Early Major Postoperative Renal Dysfunction in On-Pump Adult Cardiac Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial
This study was conducted to evaluate the protective effects of intra- and early postoperative furosemide infusion on preventing acute renal dysfunction in elective adult cardiac surgery.
