Reducing postischemic damage by temporary modification of reperfusate calcium, potassium, pH, and osmolarity.

TL;DR: By combining these modifications to achieve a hypocalcemic, hyperkalemic, alkalotic, and hyperosmolar blood perfusate, it was possible to attain 104% +/-1% recovery of myocardial performance, 80% +/- 1% restoration of compliance, 60% less postischemic edema, and near-normal augmentation of left ventricular flow and oxygen uptake to meet increasing needs.

Surgery of infants and children : scientific principles and practice

TL;DR: Part I of the Pediatric Transplant Procedures: Principles of Orthopedics Hand considers the principles of orthopedics hand, as applied to the treatment of Pediatric Trauma.
Journal ArticleDOI

Iatrogenic myocardial edema with potassium cardioplegia.

TL;DR: Myocardial edema during potassium cardioplegia is independent of infusion pressures, is caused by isosmotic crystalloid solutions, is worsened by hyposmolar crystalloid Solutions, is avoided by the addition of colloid, and is avoided if the solution is made hyperosmosis with the added of mannitol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reversal of ischemic damage with secondary blood cardioplegia.

TL;DR: It is believed that the increased recovery with secondary cardioplegia results from diversion of delivered oxygen toward reparative processes rather than its being expended needlessly on electromechanical work during the time when bypass must be prolonged.
