ObjectivesTo assess the effect of DuraGraft (Somahlution Inc, Jupiter, Fla), an intraoperative graft treatment, on saphenous vein grafts in patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting.MethodsWithin patients, 2 saphenous vein grafts were randomized to DuraGraft or heparinized saline. Multidetector computed tomography angiography at 1, 3, and 12 months assessed change in wall thickness (primary end point at 3 months), lumen diameter, and maximum narrowing for the whole graft and the proximal 5-cm segment. Safety end points included graft occlusion, death, myocardial infarction, and repeat revascularization.ResultsAt 3 months, no significant changes were observed between DuraGraft- and saline-treated grafts (125 each) for wall thickness, lumen diameter, and maximum narrowing. At 12 months, DuraGraft-treated grafts demonstrated smaller mean wall thickness, overall (0.12 ± 0.06 vs 0.20 ± 0.31 mm; P = .02) and in the proximal segment (0.11 ± 0.03 vs 0.21 ± 0.33 mm; P = .01). Changes in wall thickness were greater in the proximal segment of saline-treated grafts (0.09 ± 0.29 vs 0.00 ± 0.03 mm; P = .04). Increase in maximum graft narrowing was larger in the proximal segment in the saline-treated grafts (4.7% ± 12.7% vs 0.2% ± 3.8%; P = .01). Nine DuraGraft and 11 saline grafts had occluded or thrombosed. One myocardial infarction was associated with a saline graft occlusion. No deaths or revascularizations were observed.ConclusionsDuraGraft demonstrated a favorable effect on wall thickness at 12 months, particularly in the proximal segment. Longer-term follow-up in larger studies is needed to evaluate the effect on clinical outcomes.  相似文献

ObjectivesRelative rates of early graft failure and conduit selection in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery remain controversial. Therefore, we sought to determine the incidence and determinants of graft failure of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA), radial artery, saphenous vein, and right internal mammary artery (RIMA) 1 year after CABG surgery.MethodsA post hoc analysis of the Cardiovascular Outcomes for People Using Anticoagulation Strategies (COMPASS) CABG study, involving patients from 83 centers in 22 countries. We completed an analysis of 3480 grafts from 1068 patients who underwent CABG surgery with complete computed tomography angiography data. The primary outcome was graft failure as diagnosed by computed tomography angiography 1 year after surgery.ResultsGraft failure occurred in 6.4% (68/1068) for LIMA, 9.9% (9/91) for radial artery, 10.4% (232/2239) for saphenous vein, and 26.8% (22/82) for RIMA grafts. The RIMA had a greater rate of graft failure (26.8%) than radial artery (9.9%) and veins (10.4%) (adjusted odds ratio, 2.69; 95% confidence interval, 1.30-5.57; P = .008 and adjusted odds ratio, 2.07; 95% confidence interval, 1.33-3.21; P = .001, respectively).ConclusionsIn this international trial dataset, LIMA and radial artery performed as expected, whereas vein grafts performed better. However, high rates of RIMA failure are worrisome and highlight the need for a thorough evaluation of the patency and safety of the RIMA in CABG surgery.  相似文献

ObjectiveLeft ventricular (LV) distention is a feared complication in patients receiving venoarterial (VA) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). LV unloading can be achieved indirectly with intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) or directly with an Impella device (Abiomed, Danvers, Mass). We sought to assess the clinical and hemodynamic effects of IABP and Impella devices on patients supported with VA ECMO.MethodsWe conducted a retrospective review of VA ECMO patients at our institution from January 2015 to June 2020. Patients were categorized as either ECMO alone or ECMO with LV unloading. LV unloading was characterized as either ECMO with IABP or ECMO with Impella. We recorded baseline characteristics, survival, complications, and hemodynamic changes associated with device initiation.ResultsDuring the study, 143 patients received ECMO alone whereas 140 received ECMO with LV unloading (68 ECMO with IABP, 72 ECMO with Impella). ECMO with Impella patients had a higher incidence of bleeding events compared with ECMO alone or ECMO with IABP (52.8% vs 37.1% vs 17.7%; P < .0001). Compared with ECMO alone, ECMO with IABP patients had better survival at 180 days (log rank P = .005) whereas survival in ECMO with Impella patients was not different (log rank P = .66). In a multivariable Cox hazard analysis, age (hazard ratio [HR], 1.02; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.00-1.03; P = .015), male sex (HR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.38-0.80; P = .002), baseline lactate (HR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.02-1.11; P = .004), baseline creatinine (HR, 1.06; 95% CI, 1.00-1.11; P = .032), need for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation-cardiopulmonary resuscitation (HR, 2.09; 95% CI, 1.40-3.39; P = .001), and presence of pre-ECMO IABP (HR, 0.45; 95% CI, 0.25-0.83; P = .010) were associated with reduced mortality. There was no significant difference in hemodynamic changes in the ECMO with IABP versus ECMO with Impella cohorts.ConclusionsConcomitant support with IABP might help reduce morbidity and improve 180-day survival in patients receiving VA ECMO for cardiogenic shock.  相似文献

ObjectivesLobar lung transplantation (LLTx) from deceased donors is a potential solution for donor–recipient size mismatch for small sized recipients. We reviewed our institutional experience to compare outcomes after LLTx to standard lung transplantation (LTx).MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed transplants in our institution from January 2000 to December 2017. LLTx early- and long-term outcomes were compared with LTx. Additional analysis of outcomes was performed after dividing the cohort into 2 eras (era 1, 2000-2012; era 2, 2013-2017).ResultsAmong the entire cohort (1665), 75 were LLTx (4.5%). Compared with LTx, LLTx were more frequently bridged to transplant with extracorporeal life support or mechanical ventilation and were transplanted in a rapidly deteriorating status (respectively, 20% vs 4.4%, P = .001; 22.7% vs 7.9, P < .001; and 41.3% vs 26.5%, P = .013). LLTx had longer intensive care unit and hospital lengths of stay (respectively, median 17 vs 4 days, and 45 vs 23, both P < .001), and greater 30-day mortality (13.3% vs 4.3%, P = .001) and 90-day mortality (17.3% vs 7.2%, P = .003). In era 2, despite a significantly greater 30-day mortality (10.8% vs 2.8%, P = .026), there was no significant difference in 90-day mortality between LLTx and LTx (13.5% vs 5.1%, P = .070). Overall survival at 1, 3, and 5 years was not significantly different between LLTx and LTx (73.2% vs 84.4%, 56.9% vs 68.4% and 50.4% vs 55.8, P = .088).ConclusionsAlthough LLTx is a high-risk procedure, both mid- and long-term survival are comparable with LTx in all cohorts in the modern era. LLTx therefore represents a valuable surgical option for small-sized recipients.  相似文献

BackgroundSingle-center studies support benefits of venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) as a method of intraoperative support. Propensity-matched data from a large cohort, however, are currently lacking. Therefore, our goal was to compare outcomes of intraoperative VA-ECMO and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during bilateral lung transplantation (LTx) with a propensity analysis.MethodsWe performed a retrospective analysis of 795 consecutive primary adult LTx patients (June 1, 2011-December 26, 2020) using no intraoperative support (n = 210), VA-ECMO (n = 150), or CPB (n = 197). Exclusion criteria included LTx on venovenous-ECMO, single/redo LTx, ex vivo lung perfusion, and concomitant solid-organ transplantation or cardiac procedure. Propensity analysis was performed comparing patients who underwent intraoperative CPB or VA-ECMO.ResultsThe propensity CPB group required more blood products at 72 hours (P = .02) and longer intensive care unit length of stay (P < .001) and ventilator dependence days (P < .001). There were no differences in cerebrovascular accident (P = 1), reintubation (P = .4), dialysis (P = .068), in-hospital mortality (P = .33), and 1-year (P = .67) and 3-year (P = .32) survival. The CPB group had a higher incidence of grade 3 primary graft dysfunction at 72 hours (P < .001). Neither support strategy was a predictor of 1- and 3-year mortality in our multivariable model (VA-ECMO, P = .72 and P = .57; CPB, P = .45 and P = .91, respectively).ConclusionsIntraoperative VA-ECMO during lung transplantation was associated with fewer postoperative blood transfusions, shorter length of mechanical ventilation, and lower incidence of a grade 3 primary graft dysfunction at 72 hours. Although there were some differences in the postoperative course between the VA-ECMO and CPB groups, support type was not associated with differences in survival.  相似文献

BackgroundDespite several reports, there are still conflicting data on the influence of ethnicity on mortality rates associated with coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). We aimed to get further insights into the effect of race on mortality following CABG by performing a risk adjusted meta-analysis.MethodsRelevant studies were searched on PubMed, Embase, BioMed Central, and the Cochrane Central register. Pairwise meta-analysis was used to estimate the relative risk of hospital death of black, Hispanic, and Asian patients using white patients as reference. Risk adjusted meta-analytic estimates were obtained using generic inverse variance methods with random effect model.ResultsA total of 28 studies were selected for analysis. A total of 21 studies reported on hospital mortality in black (n = 222,892) versus white (n = 3,884,043) patients, 7 studies reported on Hispanic (n = 91,256) versus white (n = 1,458,524) and 9 studies reported on Asian (n = 27,820) versus white (n = 1,081,642). When compared with white patients, adjusted risk of hospital death was significantly greater for black patients (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 1.25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.13-1.39; P < .001), and not statistically different for Asian (OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 0.99-1.77; P = .05) and Hispanic patients (adjusted OR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.94-1.23; P = .26). Meta-regression showed a significant trend toward lower mortality rates in most recent series in both black (P = .02) and white (P = .0007) and Asian (P = .01) but not for Hispanic (P = .41). However, as mortality rates were lower across the different races, the relative disadvantage between the study groups persisted, which may explain the lack of interaction between study period and race effect on mortality for black (adjusted P = .09), Asian (adjusted P = .63), and Hispanic (adjusted P = .97) patients.ConclusionsThe present meta-analysis showed that despite progress is being made in lowering in-hospital mortality rates among the major racial/ethnic groups, ethnical disparities in hospital mortality after CABG remain.  相似文献

ObjectivesMinisternotomy and right anterior minithoracotomy are the 2 main techniques applied for minimally invasive aortic valve replacement. The goal of this study is to compare early and long-term outcomes of both techniques.MethodsThe data of 2419 patients undergoing isolated minimally invasive aortic valve replacement between 1999 and 2019 were prospectively collected. Retrospectively, patients were divided into the ministernotomy group (n = 1352) and the minithoracotomy group (n = 1067).ResultsAfter propensity score matching, 986 patients remained in each group. Operation time and rate of conversion to full sternotomy were significantly higher in the minithoracotomy group than in the ministernotomy group (184.6 ± 45.2 vs 241.3 ± 68.6, relative risk, 2.54, P = .005 and .09 vs .23, relative risk, 1.45, P = .013, respectively). The 30-day mortality, excluding cardiac death, was lower in the ministernotomy group than in the minithoracotomy group (0.012 vs 0.028, relative risk, 1.41, P = .011, respectively); the intensive care unit length of stay (12.4 vs 16.5, relative risk, 1.62, P = .037, respectively) and hospital length of stay (5.4 vs 8.7, relative risk, 1.74 P = .028, respectively) were significantly longer in the minithoracotomy group. The minithoracotomy surgical approach was the strongest independent predictor of early mortality (odds ratio, 4.24 [1.67-7.35], P = .002). The actuarial survival by Kaplan–Meier analysis at 1, 3, 5, 10, and 20 years was significantly better in the ministernotomy group than in the minithoracotomy group (P = .0001). Actuarial freedom from reoperation at 5 years was 97.3% ± 4.4% in the ministernotomy group versus 95.8% ± 5.2% in the minithoracotomy group (P = .087).ConclusionsMinimally invasive aortic valve replacement using ministernotomy is associated with reduced operative time, intensive care unit stay, hospital length of stay, and postoperative morbidities and incisional pain, and improves early and long-term mortality.  相似文献

ObjectiveWe hypothesize that segmentectomy is associated with similar recurrence-free and overall survival when compared with lobectomy in the setting of patients with clinical T1cN0M0 non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC; >2-3 cm), as defined by the American Joint Committee on Cancer 8th edition staging system.MethodsWe performed a single-institution retrospective study identifying patients undergoing segmentectomy (90) versus lobectomy (279) for T1c NSCLC from January 1, 2003, to December 31, 2016. Univariate, multivariable, and propensity score–weighted analyses were performed to analyze the following endpoints: freedom from recurrence, overall survival, and time to recurrence.ResultsPatients undergoing segmentectomy were older than patients undergoing lobectomy (71.5 vs 68.8, respectively, P = .02). There were no differences in incidence of major complications (12.4% vs 11.7%, P = .85), hospital length of stay (6.2 vs 7 days, P = .19), and mortality at 30 (1.1% vs 1.7%, P = 1) and 90 days (2.2% vs 2.3%, P = 1). In addition, there were no statistical differences in locoregional (12.2% vs 8.6%, P = .408), distant (11.1% vs 13.9%, P = .716), or overall recurrence (23.3% vs 22.5%, P = 1), as well as 5-year freedom from recurrence (68.6% vs 75.8%, P = .5) or 5-year survival (57.8% vs 61.0%, P = .9). Propensity score–matched analysis found no differences in overall survival (hazard ratio [HR], 1.034; P = .764), recurrence-free survival (HR, 1.168; P = .1391), or time to recurrence (HR, 1.053; P = .7462).ConclusionsIn the setting of clinical T1cN0M0 NSCLC, anatomic segmentectomy was not associated with significant differences in recurrence-free or overall survival at 5 years. Further prospective randomized trials are needed to corroborate the expansion of the role of anatomic segmentectomy to all American Joint Committee on Cancer 8th Edition Stage 1A NSCLC.  相似文献

ObjectiveThe study objective was to determine if hemiarch replacement is an adequate arch management strategy for patients with acute type A aortic dissection and arch branch vessel dissection but no cerebral malperfusion.MethodsFrom January 2008 to August 2019, 479 patients underwent open acute type A aortic dissection repair. After excluding those with aggressive arch replacement (n = 168), cerebral malperfusion syndrome (n = 34), and indeterminable arch branch vessel dissection (n = 1), 276 patients with an acute type A aortic dissection without cerebral malperfusion syndrome who underwent hemiarch replacement comprised this study. Patients were then divided into those with arch branch vessel dissection (n = 133) and those with no arch branch vessel dissection (n = 143).ResultsThe median age of the entire cohort was 62 years, with the arch branch vessel dissection group being younger (60 vs 62 years, P = .048). Both groups had similar aortic arch and descending thoracic aortic diameters, with significantly more DeBakey type I dissections (100% vs 80%) in the arch branch vessel dissection group. The arch branch vessel dissection group had more aortic root replacement (36% vs 27%, P = .0035) and longer aortic crossclamp times (153 vs 128 minutes, P = .007). Postoperative outcomes were similar between the arch branch vessel dissection and no arch branch vessel dissection groups, including stroke (10% vs 5%, P = .12) and operative morality (7% vs 5%, P = .51). The arch branch vessel dissection group had a significantly greater cumulative incidence of reoperation (8-year: 19% vs 4%, P = .04) with a hazard ratio of 2.89 (95% confidence interval, 1.01-8.27; P = .048), which was similar between groups among only DeBakey type I dissections (8-year: 19% vs 5%, P = .11). The 8-year survival was similar between the arch branch vessel dissection and no arch branch vessel dissection groups (76% vs 74%, P = .30).ConclusionsHemiarch replacement was adequate for patients with acute type A aortic dissection with arch branch vessel dissection without cerebral malperfusion syndrome, but carried a higher risk of late reoperation.  相似文献

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate comparative outcomes for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) versus coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with reduced ejection fraction.MethodsAll patients from the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center from 2011 to 2018 who had reduced preoperative ejection fraction (<50%) and underwent CABG or PCI for coronary revascularization were included in this study. Patients were risk-adjusted with propensity matching (1:1) and primary outcomes included long-term survival, readmission, and major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE).ResultsA total of 2000 patients were included in the current study, consisting of CABG (n = 1553) and PCI (n = 447) cohorts with a mean ejection fraction of 35% ± 9.53%. Propensity matching yielded a 1:1 match with 324 patients in each cohort, controlling for all baseline characteristics. Thirty-day mortality was similar for PCI versus CABG (6.2% vs 4.9%; P = .49). Overall mortality over the study follow-up period (median, 3.23 years; range, 1.83-4.98 years) was significantly higher for the PCI cohort (37.4% vs 21.3%; P < .001). Total hospital readmissions (24.1% vs 12.9%; P = .001), cardiac readmissions (20.4% vs 11.1%; P = .001), myocardial infarction event (7.7% vs 1.8%; P = .001), MACCE (41.4% vs 23.8%; P < .001), and repeat revascularization (6.5% vs 2.6%; P = .02) occurred more frequently in the PCI cohort. Freedom from MACCE at 1 year (74.4% vs 87.0%; P < .001) and 5 years (54.5% vs 74.0%; P < .001) was significantly lower for the PCI cohort. On multivariable cox regression analysis, CABG (hazard ratio, 0.57; 95% confidence interval, 0.44-0.73; P < .001) was significantly associated with improved survival. Prior liver disease, dialysis, diabetes, and peripheral artery disease were the most significant predictors of mortality. The cumulative incidence of hospital readmission was lower for the CABG cohort (hazard ratio, 0.51; 95% confidence interval, 0.37-0.71; P < .001). Multivariable cox regression for MACCE (hazard ratio, 0.48; 95% confidence interval, 0.39-0.58; P < .001) showed significantly fewer events for the CABG cohort.ConclusionsPatients with reduced ejection fraction who underwent CABG had significantly improved survival, lower MACCE, and fewer repeat revascularization procedures compared with patients who underwent PCI.  相似文献

BackgroundUsing “large-for-size” liver graft, graft-to-recipient weight ratio (GRWR) ≥4%, has been debated in pediatric liver transplantation due to possible graft compartment after abdomen closure. Meticulous preoperative evaluation with three-dimensional (3D) techniques may prevent these problems. This study compared the safety of large-for-size grafts in pediatric living donor liver transplantation (PLDLT) during the eras with or without 3D planning.MethodsWe defined the 3D era was after November 2017 due to our first implication of 3D printing for surgical planning and subsequently developing a 3D simulation implanting model. From November 2004 to July 2021, we enrolled 30 PLDLT patients with body weight (BW) < 10 kg and categorized them into conventional group: GRWR ≥4% before the 3D era (n = 9), 3D group: GRWR ≥4% in the 3D era (n = 8), and control group: GRWR <4% (n = 13). We followed and compared their clinical outcomes.ResultsThe 3D group had the lowest BW and the highest graft volume reduction rate, with all receiving modified left lateral segments (LLS), such as reduced LLS (n = 2), hyperreduced LLS (n = 5), and segment 2 monosegment (n = 1). Overall postoperative complications were similar in conventional and control groups but significantly lower in the 3D group (OR 0.06, 95% CI 0.006?0.70, p = 0.025). However, all groups had similar graft and patient survival at 1, 2, and 4 years.ConclusionAdvanced preoperative 3D planning can decrease post-transplant complications and increase the safety of large-for-size grafts in PLDLT.Level of EvidenceType of study: Retrospective comparative study; Evidence level: Level III  相似文献

ObjectiveTo report long-term outcomes after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) with or without perioperative blood or blood products.MethodsAll patients who underwent proximal aortic surgery with DHCA from 2011 to 2018 were propensity matched according to baseline characteristics. Primary outcomes included short- and long-term mortality. Stratified Cox regression analysis was performed for significant associations with survival.ResultsA total of 824 patients underwent aortic replacement requiring circulatory arrest. After matching, there were 224 patients in each arm (transfusion and no transfusion). All baseline characteristics were well matched, with a standardized mean difference (SMD) <0.1. Preoperative hematocrit (41.0 vs 40.6; SMD = 0.05) and ejection fraction (57.5% vs 57.0%; SMD = 0.08) were similar between the no transfusion and blood product transfusion cohorts. Rate of aortic dissection (42.9% vs 45.1%; SMD = 0.05), hemiarch replacement (70.1% vs 70.1%; SMD = 0.00), and total arch replacement (21.9% vs 23.2%; SMD = 0.03) were not statistically different. Cardiopulmonary bypass and cross-clamp time were higher in the blood product transfusion cohort (P < .001). Operative mortality (9.4% vs 2.7%; P = .003), stroke (7.6% vs 1.3%; P = .001), reoperation rate, pneumonia, prolonged ventilation, and dialysis requirements were significantly higher in the transfusion cohort (P < .001). In stratified Cox regression, transfusion was an independent predictor of mortality (hazard ratio, 2.62 [confidence interval, 1.47-4.67]; P = .001). One- and 5-year survival were significantly reduced for the transfusion cohort (P < .001).ConclusionsIn patients who underwent aortic surgery with DHCA, perioperative transfusions were associated with poor outcomes despite matching for preoperative baseline characteristics.  相似文献

BackgroundThis study compares outcomes of patients with preoperative atrial fibrillation undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with or without concomitant atrial fibrillation ablation in a nationally representative Medicare cohort.ObjectivesThis study examined early and late outcomes in CABG patients with a preoperative history of atrial fibrillation to determine the correlation between surgical atrial fibrillation ablation to mortality and stroke or systemic embolization.MethodsIn the Medicare-linked Society of Thoracic Surgeons database, 361,138 patients underwent isolated CABG from 2006 to 2013; 34,600 (9.6%) had preoperative atrial fibrillation; 10,541 (30.5%) were treated with surgical ablation (ablation group), and 23,059 were not (no ablation group). Propensity score matching was performed using a hierarchical mixed model. Long-term survival was summarized using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression models with robust variance estimation. The stroke or systemic embolization incidence was modeled using the Fine-Gray model. Median follow-up was 4 years.ResultsLong-term mortality in propensity score-matched CABG patients (mean age 74 years; Society of Thoracic Surgeons risk score, 2.25) receiving ablation versus no ablation was similar (log-rank P = .30). Stroke or systemic embolization occurred in 2.2% versus 2.1% at 30 days and 9.9% versus 12.0% at 5 years (Gray P = .0091). Landmark analysis from 2 to 5 years showed lower mortality (hazard ratio, 0.89; 95% confidence interval 0.82-0.97; P = .0358) and lower risk of stroke or systemic embolization (hazard ratio, 0.73; 95% confidence interval, 0.61-0.87; P = .0006) in the ablation group.ConclusionsConcomitant ablation in CABG patients with preoperative atrial fibrillation is associated with lower stroke or systemic embolization and mortality in patients who survive more than 2 years.  相似文献

ObjectiveDespite growing evidence of comparable outcomes in recipients of donation after circulatory death and donation after brain death donor lungs, donation after circulatory death allografts continue to be underused nationally. We examined predictors of nonuse.MethodsAll donors who donated at least 1 organ for transplantation between 2005 and 2019 were identified in the United Network for Organ Sharing registry and stratified by donation type. The primary outcome of interest was use of pulmonary allografts. Organ disposition and refusal reasons were evaluated. Multivariable regression modeling was used to assess the relationship between donor factors and use.ResultsA total of 15,458 donation after circulatory death donors met inclusion criteria. Of 30,916 lungs, 3.7% (1158) were used for transplantation and 72.8% were discarded primarily due to poor organ function. Consent was not requested in 8.4% of donation after circulatory death offers with donation after circulatory death being the leading reason (73.4%). Nonuse was associated with smoking history (P < .001), clinical infection with a blood source (12% vs 7.4%, P = .001), and lower PaO2/FiO2 ratio (median 230 vs 423, P < .001). In multivariable regression, those with PaO2/FiO2 ratio less than 250 were least likely to be transplanted (adjusted odds ratio, 0.03; P < .001), followed by cigarette use (0.28, P < .001), and donor age >50 (0.75, P = .031). Recent transplant era was associated with significantly increased use (adjusted odds ratio, 2.28; P < .001).ConclusionsNontransplantation of donation after circulatory death lungs was associated with potentially modifiable predonation factors, including organ procurement organizations' consenting behavior, and donor factors, including hypoxemia. Interventions to increase consent and standardize donation after circulatory death donor management, including selective use of ex vivo lung perfusion in the setting of hypoxemia, may increase use and the donor pool.  相似文献

ObjectiveTo discern the impact of depressed left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) on the outcomes of open descending thoracic aneurysm (DTA) and thoracoabdominal aneurysms (TAAA) repair.MethodsRestricted cubic spline analysis was used to identify a threshold of LVEF, which corresponded to an increase in operative mortality and major adverse events (MAE: operative death, myocardial infarction, stroke, spinal cord injury, need for tracheostomy or dialysis). Logistic and Cox regression were performed to identify independent predictors of MAE, operative mortality, and survival.ResultsDTA/TAAA repair was performed in 833 patients between 1997 and 2018. Restricted cubic spline analysis showed that patients with LVEF <40% (n = 66) had an increased risk of MAE (odds ratio [OR], 2.17; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.22-3.87; P < .01) and operative mortality (OR, 2.72; 95% CI, 1.21-6.12; P = .02) compared with the group with LVEF ≥40% (n = 767). The group with LVEF <40% had a worse preoperative profile (eg, coronary revascularization, 48.5% vs 17.3% [P < .01]; valvular disease, 82.8% vs 49.39% [P < .01]; renal insufficiency, 45.5% vs 26.1% [P < .01]; respiratory insufficiency, 36.4% vs 21.2% [P = .01]) and worse long-term survival (35.5% vs 44.7% at 10 years; P = .01). Nonetheless, on multivariate regression, depressed LVEF was not an independent predictor of operative mortality, MAE, or survival.ConclusionsLVEF is not an independent predictor of adverse events in surgery for DTA.  相似文献

ObjectiveFemale sex is a known risk factor in most cardiac surgery, including coronary and valve surgery, but unknown in acute type A aortic dissection repair.MethodsFrom 1996 to 2018, 650 patients underwent acute type A aortic dissection repair; 206 (32%) were female, and 444 (68%) were male. Data were collected through the Cardiac Surgery Data Warehouse, medical record review, and National Death Index database.ResultsCompared with men, women were significantly older (65 vs 57 years, P < .0001). The proportion of women and men inverted with increasing age, with 23% of patients aged less than 50 years and 65% of patients aged 80 years or older being female. Women had significantly less chronic renal failure (2.0% vs 5.4%, P = .04), acute myocardial infarction (1.0% vs 3.8%, P = .04), and severe aortic insufficiency. Women underwent significantly fewer aortic root replacements with similar aortic arch procedures, shorter cardiopulmonary bypass times (211 vs 229 minutes, P = .0001), and aortic crossclamp times (132 vs 164 minutes, P < .0001), but required more intraoperative blood transfusion (4 vs 3 units) compared with men. Women had significantly lower operative mortality (4.9% vs 9.5%, P = .04), especially in those aged more than 70 years (4.4% vs 16%, P = .02). The significant risk factors for operative mortality were male sex (odds ratio, 2.2), chronic renal failure (odds ratio, 3.4), and cardiogenic shock (odds ratio, 6.8). The 10-year survival was similar between sexes.ConclusionsPhysicians and women should be cognizant of the risk of acute type A aortic dissection later in life in women. Surgeons should strongly consider operations for acute type A aortic dissection in women, especially in patients aged 70 years or more.  相似文献

BackgroundWe investigated outcomes of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with endoscopic vein harvest (EVH) vs open vein harvest (OVH) within the Evaluation of XIENCE Versus CABG (EXCEL) trial.MethodsAll patients in EXCEL randomized to CABG were included in this study. For this analysis, the primary end points were ischemia-driven revascularization (IDR) and graft stenosis or occlusion at 5 years. Additional end points were as follows: a composite of death from any cause, stroke, or myocardial infarction; bleeding; blood product transfusion; major arrhythmia; and infection requiring antibiotics. Event rates were based on Kaplan-Meier estimates in time-to-first-event analyses.ResultsOf the 957 patients randomized to CABG, 686 (71.7%) received at least 1 venous graft with 257 (37.5%) patients in the EVH group and 429 (62.5%) patients in the OVH group. At 5 years, IDR was higher (11.5% vs 6.7%; P = .047) in the EVH group. At 5 years, rates of graft stenosis or occlusion (9.7% vs 5.4%; P = .054) and the primary end point (17.4% vs 20.9%; P = .27) were similar. In-hospital bleeding (11.3% vs 13.8%; P = .35), in-hospital blood product transfusion (12.8% vs 13.1%; P = .94), and infection requiring antibiotics within 1 month (13.6% vs 16.8%; P = .27) were similar between EVH and OVH patients. Major arrhythmia in the hospital (19.8% vs 13.5%; P = .03) and within 1 month (21.8% vs 15.4%; P = .03) was higher in EVH patients.ConclusionsIDR at 5 years was higher in the EVH group. EVH and OVH patients had similar rates of graft stenosis or occlusion and the composite of death, stroke, or myocardial infarction at 5 years.  相似文献

ObjectivesDuring degenerative mitral repair, surgeons must decide if further repair is warranted for residual mild mitral regurgitation. We examined the incidence of mild mitral regurgitation, late echocardiographic and clinical outcomes, and influence of surgical experience in decision making.MethodsFrom April 2004 to June 2018, 1155 of 1195 patients with pure degenerative disease underwent repair (97% repair rate). Propensity score matching was performed between patients with trace/no mitral regurgitation and patients with mild residual mitral regurgitation. Late echocardiographic outcome and freedom from reoperation were compared using competing-risks models. A comparison of outcomes of the referent surgeon (89.8% of repairs) with all other surgeons was performed.ResultsMild mitral regurgitation was present in 73 patients (6%). Propensity score–matched analyses compared 69 patients with mild mitral regurgitation with 198 patients without mitral regurgitation. Late moderate or greater mitral regurgitation was higher in those with mild mitral regurgitation than in those with no mitral regurgitation (17% vs 7%, P = .033), as was late moderate-severe or greater mitral regurgitation (6% vs 1%, P = .016). Ten-year freedom from reoperation was low in both groups (99.5% no vs 96.9% mild; P = .10). The referent surgeon had fewer patients with mild residual mitral regurgitation (6% vs 11%, P = .027) and less progression of mitral regurgitation compared with other surgeons (late moderate or greater mitral regurgitation 6% vs 15%, P = .002).ConclusionsResidual mild mitral regurgitation was uncommon, and late progression to moderate or greater mitral regurgitation was rare and never led to late mitral reoperation. Experienced surgeons may be better able to determine repairs likely to remain stable, and most mild residual mitral regurgitation does not require re-repair.  相似文献

PurposeTo compare the measurements of fat fraction (FF) and in-phase vs. opposed-phase ratio between two-dimensional T2-weighted (T2W) spin-echo (SE) Dixon and three-dimensional (3D) T1-weighted (T1W) volume interpolated breath-hold examination (VIBE) Dixon sequences in malignant vertebral lesions and normal vertebral bone marrow.Materials and methodsThirty patients with focal vertebral malignancies (20 men, mean age, 67.3 ± 9.4 [SD] years; age range: 41–84 years) and 30 patients without malignant spinal disease (11 men, mean age, 70.1 ± 12.9 [SD]; age range: 53–93 years) were retrospectively included. Each patient underwent spine MRI at 1.5 Tesla including T2W SE and T1W VIBE 2-point Dixon sequences. Two readers independently performed 3D-volume of interest (VOI) and region of interest (ROI)-based FF and IO-ratio measurements of malignant lesions and normal vertebrae. Student t-test, Pearson correlation (r) test and two-way mixed model intraclass correlation coefficients (ICC) were used to compare measurements.ResultsT2W SE and T1W VIBE mean FF and IO-ratio were significantly smaller in malignancy compared to normal marrow, but there were significant differences of paired measurement mean values between T2W SE and T1W VIBE Dixon parameters in malignant lesions T2W SE VOI FF = 9%, T2W SE ROI FF = 7%, T2W SE IO-ratio = 4% vs. T1W VIBE VOI FF = 11%, T1W VIBE ROI FF = 9%, T1W VIBE IO-ratio = ?2%, and in normal vertebrae T2W SE VOI FF = 74%, T2W SE ROI FF = 77%, T2W SE IO-ratio = 51% vs. T1W VIBE VOI FF = 67%, T1W VIBE ROI FF = 73%, T1W VIBE IO-ratio = 58% (each P comparing the paired T2W TSE and T1W VIBE parameter, respectively < 0.001). There was excellent positive correlation between T2 W SE and T1 W VIBE-FF (r  0.99) and VOI and ROI FF measurements for each sequence (r  0.99). Inter-reader agreement was excellent for all measurements (ICC  0.94 for all).ConclusionCalculation of T2W SE Dixon derived FF is feasible and gave valid results that help discriminate between malignant vertebral lesions and normal vertebral bone marrow.  相似文献

ObjectiveWe sought to determine the early and late outcomes of endovascular versus open thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair.MethodsWe performed a multicenter population-based study across the province of Ontario, Canada, from 2006 to 2017. The primary end point was mortality. Secondary end points were time to first event of a composite of mortality, permanent spinal cord injury, permanent dialysis, and stroke, the individual end points of the composite, patient disposition at discharge, hospital length of stay, myocardial infarction, and secondary procedures at follow-up.ResultsA total of 664 adults undergoing surgical repair of a thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm (endovascular: n = 303 [45.5%] vs open: n = 361 [54.5%]) were identified using an algorithm of administrative codes validated against the operative records. Propensity score matching resulted in 241 patient pairs. Endovascular repairs increased during the study and currently comprise more than 50% of total repairs. In the matched sample, open repair was associated with a higher incidence of in-hospital death (17.4% vs 10.8%, P = .04), complications (26.1% vs 17.4%, P = .02), discharge to rehabilitation facilities (18.7% vs 10.0%, P = .02), and longer length of stay (12 [7-21] vs 6 [3-13] days, P < .01). Long-term mortality was not significantly different (hazard ratio, 1.09; 95% confidence interval, 0.78-1.50), nor were the other secondary end points, with the exception of secondary procedures, which were higher in the endovascular group (hazard ratio, 2.64; 95% confidence interval, 1.54-4.55). At 8 years, overall survival was 41.3% versus 44.6% after endovascular and open repair (P = .62).ConclusionsEndovascular repair was associated with improved early outcomes but higher rates of secondary procedures after discharge. Long-term survival after thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair is poor and independent of repair technique.  相似文献
