Between January 1981 and December 1991, 4137 adult patients underwent various cardiac procedures via a median sternotomy under cardiopulmonary bypass. The overall infection rate was 1.33%, including superficial wound infections (SWI) (1.18%) deep sternal (DSI) (0.145%). Pericardial retrosternal suction drains with vent allowed better drainage of blood serosities probably contributed to our low DSI rate. Eleven factors predisposing were evaluated by Fisher's exact test. Only the operative...
Following mitral valve replacement, a 43-year-old male presented electrocardiographic signs of myocardial ischemiainjury in the postero-inferior wall, and subsequently died. The post mortem examination revealed subendocardial infarction wall. This was related to accidental ligation circumflex coronary artery by one sutures fixing prosthetic valve. Technically, this surgical accident can be explained anomalous origin course found patient at time examination. Anatomical variations arteries...
Background: Pulmonary complications following cardiac valvular surgery are common and contribute to increased rate of hospi- tal stay, morbidity mortality. This study was conducted determine the incidence pulmonary after investigate perioperative clinical factors for postoperative at a tertiary university hospital. Methods: Overall, 180 consecutive adult patients (> 18 years), who underwent nonemergency aortic, mitral, or tricuspid were enrolled. Before surgery, lung function gas exchange...
Background: Pulmonary blood flow may affect lung development in adulthood. Early total correction of tetralogy Fallot final volumes. We evaluated the effect age at on volumes years after operation. Methods: In a retrospective cohort study patients with totally corrected (mean age, 13.40 time follow-up), forced vital capacity, slow expiratory volume 1 s, and other parameters were measured 154.8 ± 46.25 months Comparison made 3 groups: ≤2-, 2–8-, >8-years old surgery. Results: Among 322...
Thrombolytic therapy in patients with sub-massive pulmonary embolism (SMPTE) needs further assessment.The current study aimed to assess a potential benefit of thrombolytic and non-thrombolytic SMPTE.One hundred-nineteen were enrolled SMPTE from 2006 2010 the tertiary care center Rajaie medical research center. The who had thromboemboli (PTE) received plus heparin or (unfractionated alone) evaluated for hemodynamic changes (blood pressure, pulse rate, artery systolic right ventricular failure...
<b>Background:</b> Persistent air leak (PAL) is an event which can complicate management of patients with pneumothorax, both in surgical and nonsurgical condition. Kinds techniques were used clinical practice to stop who could not tolerate standard approach variable feasibility efficacy. <b>Methods:</b> We about 100 cc patients' blood for endo-bronchial autologous patch(EBAB) closure BPF, after localization that flexible bronchoscope, wedging or balloon involved segments successful result...
