<h3>Importance</h3> Endorsement of global humanitarian interventions is based on either proven cost-effectiveness or perceived public health benefits. The and long-term benefits pediatric cardiac surgery are unknown, funding for this intervention insufficient. <h3>Objectives</h3> To determine the (multiple 2-week-long program assistance trips to various low- middle-income countries [LMICs]) produce a measure long-lasting effects programs. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> International,...
To present the authors' 30-year experience with traumatic aortic rupture (TAR).TAR is a highly lethal injury. Most institutions manage small number of cases, and most surgeons receive only modest exposure during training.Between 1971 2001, authors operated on 219 patients diagnosis TAR. Diagnosis TAR since 1994 has been based exclusively use contrast-enhanced spiral computed tomography, angiography reserved for equivocal cases (periaortic mediastinal hematoma without wall abnormalities)....
Abstract Background: CHDs are one of the most frequent congenital malformations, affecting in hundred live births. In total, 70% will require treatment first year life, but over 90% cases low- and middle-income countries receive no or suboptimal treatment. As a result, responsible for 66% preventable deaths due to malformations countries. This study examines unmet need cardiac care around world based on global burden disease. Materials methods: CHD morbidity mortality data 2006, 2011, 2016...
Abstract Objectives It is accepted treatment to give vasopressin adults in postcardiotomy shock, but such use children controversial. Cardiopulmonary bypass presumed attenuate the normal endogenous response shock. We hypothesized that levels of are altered by bypass, and having low perioperatively more likely develop hypotension, or require vasopressors. Methods Serial were assessed prospectively undergoing at a single center. Results Of 61 eligible patients, we enrolled 39 (63%). Their...
Congenital heart disease is the most common birth defect worldwide, and accounts for a high proportion of world's infant mortality. About 9 every 10 babies born each year are in areas without adequate access to surgery; overcoming this problem will necessitate addressing worldwide shortage an estimated 3,700 pediatric cardiac surgeons. Establishing sustainable surgery programs requires more than investment money: political, social, cultural issues unique environment need be addressed....
The role of angiotensin II (Ang II)-receptors on mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation in cardiomyocytes remains controversial. Therefore, the current study was designed to investigate actions AT 1 - and 2 -receptors Ang II-induced extracellular signal-regulated (ERK), p38 c-Jun N-terminal (JNK) MAPK activities human cardiomyocytes. Human cardiac tissue obtained from open-heart surgery (n=6). minced incubated special culture system for 24 hours absence or presence (10 -7 M)....
In countries with ample resources, no debate exists as to whether heart surgery should be provided. However, where funding is limited, what responsibility care for children congenital defects? If have a "right" surgical treatment, whom the "duty" provide it assigned? These questions are subjected ethical analysis.Examination initially based on four principles of medical ethics: autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. Consideration beneficence justice expanded using...
Abstract Background Surgery for CHD has been slow to develop in parts of the former Soviet Union. The impact an 8-year surgical assistance programme between emerging centre and a multi-disciplinary international team that comprised healthcare professionals from developed cardiac programmes is analysed presented. Material methods paediatric included five main components – intermittent clinical visits site annually, medical education, biomedical engineering support, nurse empowerment,...
