Eight Hours of Cold Static Storage with Adenosine and Lidocaine (Adenocaine) Heart Preservation Solutions: Toward Therapeutic Suspended Animation
Our aim was to investigate the effects of 8 hours of cold static storage (4°C) using 2 normokalemic, polarizing adenosine-lidocaine (Adenocaine; Hibernation Therapeutics Global Ltd, Kilquade, Ireland) solutions and to compare their functional recovery with hearts preserved in gold standard histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (Custodiol-HTK; Essential Pharma, Newtown, Pa) and Celsior (Genzyme, Cambridge, Mass) solutions.
Minimally Invasive Mitral Valve Surgery Using Single Dose Antegrade Custodiol Cardioplegia
Our unit began a minimally invasive mitral surgery (MIMS) program utilizing antegrade Custodiol solution as the sole cardioplegia. The aim of this paper is to report our results of this program.
New HTK-N46B Cardioplegia Provides Superior Protection During Ischemia/Reperfusion in Failing Hearts
The aim of this paper was to improve operative outcome during open-heart surgery in patients with failing hearts, the composition of cardioplegic solutions has to be further optimized.
Custodiol Versus Blood Cardioplegia in Complex Cardiac Operations: An Australian Experience
We hypothesized that a single administration of Bretschneider histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) crystalloid solution (Custodiol) offers myocardial protection comparable with repeated tepid blood cardioplegia.
Venous-Arterial Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Refractory Cardiac Arrest: A Clinical Challenge
Guidelines stated that extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) may improve outcomes after refractory cardiac arrest (CA) in cases of cardiogenic shock and witnessed arrest, where there is an underlying circulatory disease amenable to immediate corrective intervention.
