Abstract Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent and severe complication in cardiac surgery. Normal renal function dependent on adequate perfusion, which may be altered the perioperative period. Renal perfusion can assessed with Doppler measurement. We aimed to determine association between measurements of development AKI. This was prospective, observational study 100 patients ≥ one risk factor for postoperative AKI undergoing open-heart ultrasound examinations were performed before surgery...
Abstract Background: Ultrasonography of the cardiovascular system is pivotal for hemodynamic assessment. Diastolic function evaluated with a combination tissue Doppler (e’ and a’) pulsed (E A) measures transmitral- mitral valve annuli velocities. However, accurate echocardiographic evaluation in intensive care unit or perioperative setting contingent on relative resistance to positive pressure ventilation changes preload. This study aimed evaluate effects end-expiratory (PEEP) positioning...
Background Although pleural effusion is a common complication in critically ill patients, detailed knowledge missing about the haemodynamic impact and underlining mechanisms. The aim of this study was to evaluate effect incremental by means invasive parameters transthoracic echocardiography. Methods This experimental interventional conducted using 22 female piglets (17.5–21.5 kg) randomized for right‐side ( n = 9) left‐side effusion, or sham operation 4). Pleural induced infusing volumes...
Background. The use of echocardiography in intensive care settings impacts decision making. A prerequisite for the is relative resistance to changes volume status and levels positive pressure ventilation (PPV). Studies on indices diastolic function report conflicting results with regard dependence status. Evidence scarce PPV. Methods. Ten healthy subjects were exposed 6 end-expiratory (PEEP) support (PS) following a baseline reading. All ventilator performed at three positions: horizontal,...
Abstract Background Phenylephrine increases systemic‐ and pulmonary resistances therefore may increase blood pressures at the expense of flow. Cardio‐pulmonary bypass alters vasoreactivity many patients exhibit chronotropic insufficiency after cardiac surgery. We aimed to describe haemodynamic effects phenylephrine infusion Methods Patients in steady state low‐risk surgery received incremental rates up 1.0 μg/kg/min with aim increasing systemic mean arterial pressure 20 mmHg. Invasive...
