Journal ArticleDOI
The measurement of intra-abdominal pressure as a criterion for abdominal re-exploration
TL;DR: If intra-abdominal pressure rises above 25 mmHg in the early postoperative period and is associated with oliguria and normal blood pressure and cardiac index, the patient should undergo re-exploration and decompression of the abdomen.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Replacement provided a more durable correction of mitral regurgitation, but there was no significant between-group difference in clinical outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elevated intra-abdominal pressure and renal function.
TL;DR: The impairment in renal function produced by increased intra-abdominal pressure is a local phenomenon caused by direct renal compression and is not related to cardiac output.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical ventricular restoration in the treatment of congestive heart failure due to post-infarction ventricular dilation.
Constantine L. Athanasuleas,Gerald D. Buckberg,Alfred W.H. Stanley,William Siler,Vincent Dor,Marisa Di Donato,Lorenzo Menicanti,Sérgio Almeida de Oliveira,Friedhelm Beyersdorf,Irving L. Kron,Hisayoshi Suma,Nicholas T. Kouchoukos,Wistar Moore,Patrick M. McCarthy,Mehmet C. Oz,F. Fontan,Meredith L. Scott,Kevin A. Accola +17 more
TL;DR: Surgical ventricular restoration improves ventricular function and is highly effective therapy in the treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy with excellent five-year outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical relocation of the posterior papillary muscle in chronic ischemic mitral regurgitation
TL;DR: Surgical procedure for direct relocation of the posterior papillary muscle may be useful for patients with a minimally dilated left ventricle or regional left ventricular geometric changes causing mitral regurgitation.
