Postcardiac surgery complications: association of acute renal dysfunction and atrial fibrillation. Postoperative creatinine increase is associated with adverse outcome after cardiac surgery. Although postoperative stroke and renal dysfunction are associa... MJ Albahrani,M Swaminathan,B Phillips-Bute,... - ...
Patients with insulin-treated diabetes had optimal clinical outcomes (less risk of infections and respiratory complications) and lower hospital costs and length of hospital stay if their maximum glucose in the 4 days after cardiac surgery was 180 to 240 mg/dL. On the other hand, patients without...
Postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCCS) in cardiac surgery is associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Beside other therapeutic measures (e.g. intraaortic balloon pump (IABP)), extracorporeal life support is being increasingly used in this particular form of shock. Objectives of ...
There were no surgical complications but one device malfunction 4 months post implantation. Stimulation was applied for up to 23 h/day, across a broad range of parameters: frequency (18–700 Hz), pulse width (100–600 µs), and amplitude (0.4–17 mA), with no adverse events ...

The postpericardiotomy syndrome (PPS) is a relatively common complication following cardiac surgery, whose epidemiology is not well known because there are no standardized definitions. The aim of the present study is to review more recent updates on the diagnosis, therapy, prognosis, and especially...
Arrhythmias are common after cardiac surgery such as coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. Although most of these arrhythmias are transient and have a benign course, it may represent a significant source of morbidity and mortality. Postoperative arrhy
We used a matched case–control design to compare the exposure of patients who underwent major cardiac surgery to a range of risk factors, chosen based on hypothesis, and who went on to develop SWI (cases) with those from the same source populatio...
