Real-Time Intraoperative Determination and Reporting of Cerebral Autoregulation State Using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
We sought to determine the performance of the cotrending method by comparing its CA metrics to data derived from transcranial Doppler (TCD) methods.
Application of Piezo-Based Measuring System for Evaluation of Nucleic Acid-Based Drugs Influencing the Coagulation
The obtained results showed that the established PIEZ is capable to dynamically measure the hemostasis status in whole blood and can be applied to analyze nucleic acid-based drugs influencing the coagulation.
Measuring Cerebral Carbon Dioxide Reactivity With Transcranial Doppler and Near-Infrared Spectroscopy in Children With Ventricular Septal Defect
NIRS may be used as a surrogate to investigate CO2R when the ultrasound window is poor.
Intraoperative Optimization of Both Depth of Anesthesia and Cerebral Oxygenation in Elderly Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery—A Randomized Controlled Pilot Trial
This pilot trial demonstrates that noninvasive target-controlled depth of anesthesia monitoring is feasible.
Usefulness of a New Device to Monitor Cerebral Blood Oxygenation Using NIRS During Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation in Patients with Cardiac Arrest: A Pilot Study
This study suggests that the NIRO-CCR1 can measure CBO during CPR in patients with cardiac arrest as effectively as the NIRO-200NX.
Development of a Prototype Anti-Pollution Filter for Volatile Anesthetics
The new version of our prototype filter adsorbed most of the volatile anesthetics agents during an ex-vivo simulated conventional cardiopulmonary bypass test.
Differences Between Central Venous and Cerebral Tissue Oxygen Saturation in Anaesthetised Patients With Diabetes Mellitus
We hypothesised that diabetes widens the physiological saturation gap between ScvO2 and rSO2 (gSO2), and the width of this gap may vary during various phases of cardiac surgery.
Superior Mesenteric Flow Pattern During Counterpulsation: is Simply a Shorter Balloon the Solution for Visceral Hypoperfusion?
Our data are a call for improvement in the design of the short balloon.
The Use of Data Science to Analyse Physiology of Oxygen Delivery in the Extracorporeal Circulation
Modern calculation tools make it possible to create a common data platform from a very large database. Using that methodology we created models of haemodynamic compounds describing tissue oxygen delivery.
Mycobacterium Chimaera Infections: An Update
Our review aims to provide an updated account of microbiological characteristics, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of Mycobacterium chimaera infections, with a special focus on those developing after cardiothoracic surgery.
Hemostatic Management of Extracorporeal Circuits Including Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation
Managing bleeding on extracorporeal support requires careful monitoring and a thoughtful approach.
