This article describes a newly recognized physiological phenomenon, RIDDLER (East-West Syndrome), in patients on awake peripheral V-A ECMO. It occurs when CO2-rich blood from
This study evaluates the effectiveness of thoracoabdominal normothermic regional perfusion (TA-NRP) in liver transplantation from donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors. Compared to static
This study analyzes the efficacy of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in older adults with accidental hypothermia (AH) and hemodynamic instability before cardiac arrest. A
This study compares Buckberg (BS) and Del Nido (DNS) cardioplegia in isolated aortic valve replacement (AVR) through a two-center randomized trial with 311 patients.
This study explores a novel perfusion strategy for minimally invasive redo mitral valve surgery in patients with severe atherosclerotic and artheromic aortic disease. Using
This study examines pediatric cardiac patients with pulmonary hemorrhage (PH) supported on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) using data from the ELSO registry (2011–2020). Analyzing
This study examines the impact of gradual oxygen exposure during emergency coronary bypass surgery for acute myocardial infarction (MI). A retrospective cohort of 66
This case report details the prolonged extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support of a 12-year-old girl with severe congenital heart disease and myocarditis in wartime
VA-ECMO provides critical cardiopulmonary support but increases left ventricular afterload, potentially leading to left ventricular distension (LVD). This literature review explores various clinical, hemodynamic,
This study evaluates whether magnesium administration is necessary following cardioplegic arrest with del Nido cardioplegia (dNC) solution at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC).
As the demand for perfusion education programs (PEPs) grows, many qualified applicants struggle to secure spots due to inconsistent admission processes. This study examines
This study focuses on developing and validating a checklist for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to enhance patient safety and reduce adverse events. Using the Delphi
