1. 1. The gastrointestinal tract in cardiac anaesthesia and intensive care : Clinical and experimental studies

   Författare :Jenny Seilitz; Kristofer Nilsson; Kjell Jansson; Birger Axelsson; Måns Edström; Sten Rubertsson; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Acute Gastrointestinal Injury grade; biomarkers; extracorporeal circulation; splanchnic perfusion; inotropic drugs; vasoactive drugs; lactate; lactate pyruvate ratio;

   Sammanfattning : Gastrointestinal (GI) complications after cardiac surgery have a substantial impact on outcome. The aims were to investigate the frequency of, and methods for detecting, GI dysfunction after cardiac surgery and its relation to outcome, and the impact of vasoactive drugs on the GI tract in experimental cardiogenic shock.

3. 2. Cardiac effects of non-adrenergic inotropic drugs : clinical and experimental studies

   Författare :Birger Axelsson; Michael Haney; Hans Tydén; Anil Gupta; Patrick Wouters; Sven-Erik Ricksten; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Milrinone; levosimendan; vein graft flow; myocardial ischemia; protection; inotropy; diastole; Anaesthesiology; anestesiologi;

   Sammanfattning : Background: Myocardial failure and dysfunction is not uncommon during critical illness and following cardiac surgery. For optimal treatment, a better understanding of the effects of inotropic drugs is needed. In this thesis, two non-adrenergic mediated inotropes, milrinone and levosimendan were studied in different models of myocardial dysfunction. LÄS MER

4. 3. Drug use in the elderly : are quantity and quality compatible

   Författare :Inga Klarin; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Population-based; cross-sectional; longitudinal; aged; aged 80 and over; drug utilization; cardiovascular agents; angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors; inappropriate drug use; heart failure; dementia; hospitalization; mortality; Sweden.;

   Sammanfattning : The increasing number of elderly, and the increasing drug use among the elderly, emphasizes the need to continuously monitor drug utilization in this group. The scarcity of randomized controlled trials including elderly people give population-based, observational studies an important role as source of information on drug use and drug-related problems.

5. 4. Novel functions of cardiovascular P2 receptors

   Författare :Anna-Karin Wihlborg; Kardiologi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cardiovascular system; Kardiovaskulära systemet; mRNA; EDHF; UTP; UDP; ADP; ATP; P2 receptor; contraction; dilatation; endothelial cells; Heart; VSMC;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of the thesis was to examine the expression and function of the extracellular nucleotide P2 receptors in the cardiovascular system. In the cardiovascular system nucleotides are released during shear stress, hypoxia, ischemia, from endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, aggregating platelets, inflammatory cells and erythrocytes.

7. 5. Maternal Hemodynamic Effects of Medical Gases and Uterotonics in Obstetrics

   Författare :Sofus Rabow; Anestesiologi och intensivvård; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; carbetocin; cesarean section; general anesthesia; hemodynamics; hemodynamic monitoring; hyperoxia; nitrous oxide; obstetrical analgesia; oxygen; oxytocics; oxytocin; oxytocin receptors; pregnancy; photoplethysmography; pulse wave analysis; spinal anesthesia; vascular stiffness;

   Sammanfattning : Aim of study: To elucidate the hemodynamic effects of pharmaceutical and medical interventions during pregnancy and childbirth on the mother.Introduction: Oxytocin, oxygen, and nitrous oxide are pharmaceuticals very commonly used in labor and delivery. These pharmaceuticals have known cardiovascular adverse effects. LÄS MER
