Journal ArticleDOI
Perioperative Maintenance of Normothermia Reduces the Incidence of Morbid Cardiac Events: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Steven M. Frank,Lee A. Fleisher,Michael J. Breslow,Michael S. Higgins,K. F. Olson,Susan Kelly,Charles Beattie +6 more
TL;DR: In patients with cardiac risk factors who are undergoing noncardiac surgery, the perioperative maintenance of normothermia is associated with a reduced incidence of morbid cardiac events and ventricular tachycardia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Perioperative morbidity in patients randomized to epidural or general anesthesia for lower extremity vascular surgery
Rose Christopherson,Charles Beattie,Steven M. Frank,Edward J. Norris,Curtis L. Meinert,Sidney O. Gottlieb,Helen Yates,Peter Rock,Stephen D. Parker,Bruce A. Perler,G Melville Willams +10 more
TL;DR: Compared with general anesthesia, epidural anesthesia is associated with a lower incidence of reoperatlon for inadequate tissue perfusion and, therefore, may be advantageous for this surgical population.
Journal ArticleDOI
Unintentional Hypothermia Is Associated with Postoperative Myocardial Ischemia
Steven M. Frank,Charles Beattie,Rose Christopherson,Edward J. Norris,Bruce A. Perler,G. M. Williams,Sidney O. Gottlieb +6 more
TL;DR: Unintentional hypothermia is associated with myocardial ischemia, angina, and PaO2 < 80 mmHg during the early postoperative period in patients undergoing lower extremity vascular surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Catecholamine, Cortisol, and Hemodynamic Responses to Mild Perioperative Hypothermia: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Steven M. Frank,Michael S. Higgins,M. J. Breslow,Lee A. Fleisher,R. B. Gorman,James V. Sitzmann,Hershel Raff,Charles Beattie +7 more
TL;DR: This data indicates that spontaneous hypothermia occurs frequently during surgery and may have adverse effects on the cardiovascular system, and the mechanisms responsible for the cardiovascular manifestations ofhypothermia are unclear.
