  1. 1. Aspects of pediatric hemodynamics. A study of young children undergoing corrective heart surgery

    Författare :Theódór Sigurdsson; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiac output; Heart surgery; Hemodynamics; Intracardiac shunt; Volume estimation; Young children;

    Sammanfattning : AbstractBackground: Assessing critically ill patients is demanding because their clinical signs are not always easy to interpret. This is particularly true for pediatric patients, due to their small size and robust circulatory compensatorymechanism. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Capnodynamic determination of effective pulmonary blood flow and end expiratory lung volume : studies in children and paediatric animal models

    Författare :Jacob Karlsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :cardiac output children;

    Sammanfattning : Dynamic capnography is a haemodynamic and respiratory monitoring technique enabling continuous cardiac output (Effective Pulmonary Blood Flow, COEPBF) and end expiratory lung volume (Effective Lung Volume, ELV) assessment in mechanically ventilated subjects. The method utilizes variations in exhaled CO2, implemented via periods of deliberate changes in the respiratory pattern. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Early childhood thymectomy - impact on immune function

    Författare :Judith Gudmundsdottir; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Immunologi; Thymus; Pediatric cardiac surgery; Congenital heart defect;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: The thymus is the site of T cell maturation. Children born with a congenital heart defect often endure surgery early in life, and during surgery their thymus is routinely removed, as it blocks the surgeons access to the heart. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Recruitment of small size lungs - experimental studies

    Författare :Angela Hanson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; lung recruitment; PEEP titration; VTCO2; Cdyn; computed tomography; cardiac output; atelectasis; lung aeration; driving pressure;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Patients - both children and adults - undergoing anesthesia and mechanical ventilation rapidly develop atelectasis. Even more severe problems occur in patients with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Levosimendan vs. Milrinone: Early Renal and Hemodynamic Outcomes after lnfant Cardiac Surgery

    Författare :Elin M. Thorlacius; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; cardiac surgery; infants; congenital heart lesions; levosimendan; milrinone; acute kidney injury; myocardial function; biomarkers;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Myocardial and renal dysfunction are common after cardiac surgery in young children, which increases risk of complications and delayed recovery. Inodilators, such as milrinone and levosimendan, are frequently used to reduce the risk of low cardiac output syndrome in infants after cardiac surgery. LÄS MER
