6. Aspects of circulatory failure in respiratory extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
Sammanfattning : Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation (ECMO) was developed in the seventies for the intended use of supporting respiratory failure. Today ECMO has become a well-established treatment for patients with both respiratory and circulatory failure where conventional intensive care is inadequate. LÄS MER
7. Cardioprotective treatment strategies
Sammanfattning : In myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, complement activation, tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and extracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) release contribute to myocardial injury. ATP is degraded into adenosine by the enzyme apyrase, and adenosine possesses cardioprotective properties. LÄS MER
8. Mechanical circulatory support in patients with severe heart failure
Sammanfattning : Severe heart failure has a poor prognosis. Mechanical circulatory support (MCS) is capable of assisting the circulation in selected patients to bridge them to heart transplantation or recovery of heart function. MCS is manufactured in short-term or long-term designs. LÄS MER
9. The use of mechanical circulatory support and passive ventricular constraint in patients with acute and chronic heart failure
Sammanfattning : Many patients are diagnosed as having chronic heart failure (CHF) and apart from the fact that daily activities are impaired, they are great consumers of health care, and the prognosis is poor. The distinction between acute heart failure (AHF) and CHF may be difficult and is more a question of time rather than severity. LÄS MER
10. Endovascular occlusion methods in non-traumatic cardiac arrest
Sammanfattning : Approximately 10% of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients survive to hospital discharge. An important factor for survival is perfusion to the coronary and cerebral circulations during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). LÄS MER
