This propensity score-matched, single-center study compared Custodiol and Del Nido cardioplegia in 778 patients undergoing minimally invasive mitral valve repair. Del Nido was linked
This comprehensive review examines alternative crystalloid and whole-blood base solutions for del Nido cardioplegia, including normal saline, lactated Ringer’s, plain Ringer’s, Isolyte S, Ionosteril,
This comprehensive review explores how cardioplegia actively protects the myocardium during coronary artery bypass grafting. Beyond inducing cardiac arrest, cardioplegic solutions modulate calcium homeostasis,
This review explores the use of Del Nido cardioplegia in adult cardiac surgery, originally developed for pediatric use. It outlines its composition, benefits over
This study compares two cardioplegic solutions—HTK and Del Nido—for their impact on cerebral inflammation in a porcine cardiopulmonary bypass model. Results showed that while
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).
This prospective, randomized, and blinded study compared the impacts of traditional Plasma-Lyte A-based del Nido cardioplegia (PL DN) and a modified Ringer’s lactate-based formulation
This study compares the effectiveness of Del Nido cardioplegia (DNC) and hyperkalemic blood cardioplegia (HKB) in adult cardiac surgery with prolonged aortic cross-clamp times.
This study compares the effectiveness of modified del Nido cardioplegia (DNC) with classic blood cardioplegia (BC) in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) patients with
This randomized, double-blind trial compared the effectiveness of routine del Nido cardioplegia with two modified versions (Ringer lactate-based and plain Ringer-based) in coronary artery
This article presents a technique for administering del Nido cardioplegia using a homemade circuit composed of a pediatric reservoir, roller pump, coil cooler, and
This study compares the efficacy of Del Nido cardioplegia (DN) and traditional crystalloid blood cardioplegia in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, focusing on
