Journal Article
Ventilation of operating-theatres.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular protection during myocardial ischemia: the development and characterization of a procedure for the induction of reversible ischemic arrest.
TL;DR: The aim of the studies was to develop a solution which, if infused into the coronary vessels just prior to the onset of ischemia, would rapidly induce arrest and would also counteract several of the deleterious cellular changes known to occur during myocardial ischemIA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Myocardial protection during ischemic cardiac arrest. The importance of magnesium in cardioplegic infusates.
TL;DR: Using a rat heart model of cardiopulmonary bypass and ischemic cardiac arrest, magnesium is found to be a highly effective component of protective infusates which can be additive to hypothermia and other protective agents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypothermic arrest and potassium arrest: metabolic and myocardial protection during elective cardiac arrest.
TL;DR: Some protection could be afforded to the ischemic myocardium by topical hypothermia or by combining the ischemia with potassium arrest, and improved recoveries were observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cold cardioplegia or continuous coronary perfusion? Report on preliminary clinical experience as assessed cytochemically.
TL;DR: In double valve replacements with an aortic occlusion time of 1 1/2 hours, both techniques afforded a similar degree of preservation, except that the inner half of the myocardium was markedly better preserved by cold cardioplegia.
