Surgical Repair of Complex Aortopulmonary Window: A Case
Study
Aortopulmonary septal defect, also known as the
aortopulmonary window, is a rare congenital macrovascular
malformation. This case involves a 9-year-old boy with
aortopulmonary septal defect (type I combined with type
IV). Before surgery, milrinone and alprostadil were used to
counteract high lung pressure. Surgery was performed under
cardiopulmonary bypass, following which the pulmonary
pressure decreased. The aorta was cut, and the right pulmonary
artery opening was connected with the main pulmonary artery
septal defect using polyester patch. An internal tunnel was
made, and the deformity correction was complete...

Successful Treatment of Ventricular Arrhythmia in Tetralogy of Fallot
Repair Using Catheter Ablation
We describe the
treatment of a 16-years-old woman with late ToF repair and drug
refractory Implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) shocks.
The patient underwent successful ablation of VT using X-ray
and anatomic landmarks without the use of electroanatomical
mapping. We ... (Source: Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery)

The Effect of Dexmedetomidine on the Acute Pain After Cardiothoracic
Surgeries: A Systematic Review
Introduction: Acute post-operative pain remains a troublesome complication of
cardiothoracic surgeries. Several randomized controlled trials have examined
the efficacy of dexmedetomidine as a single or as an adjuvant agent before,
during and after surgery. However, no evidence-based conclusion has been
reached regarding the advantages of dexmedetomidine over the other
analgesics.Objective: To review the effect of dexmedetomidine on acute post-thoracotomy/sternotomy
pain.Methods: Medline, SCOPUS, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases were used to search
for randomized contro...

Quadruple Valve Replacement for Carcinoid Heart
Disease
Introduction: Carcinoid heart disease most frequently involves the tricuspid or, more
rarely, the pulmonary valve and presents with right heart failure as 5-HT is
metabolized by the lung. Left-sided valve involvement is quite rare. We
describe our experience of 3 patients presenting with heart failure
secondary to carcinoid heart disease affecting all four cardiac valves.
There are only four previous isolated case reports in the literature.Methods: All three patients underwent quadruple valve replacement during a single
operation. Right ventricular outflow tract reconstruction with...

Development and Application of a System Based on Artificial
Intelligence for Transcatheter Aortic Prosthesis Selection
Introduction: The interest in Expert systems has increased in the medical area. Some of
them are employed even for diagnosis. With the variability of transcatheter
prostheses, the most appropriate choice can be complex. This scenario
reveals an enabling environment for the use of an Expert system. The goal of
the study was to develop an Expert system based on artificial intelligence
for supporting the transcatheter aortic prosthesis selection.Methods: The system was developed on Expert SINTA. The rules were created according to
anatomical parameters indicated by the manufacturing c...

Protective Effects of Baicalin on Experimental Myocardial Infarction
in Rats
This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of baicalin on
myocardial infarction in rats and explore the related mechanisms.Methods: Fifty Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into the control, model, and
low-, medium- and high-dose baicalin groups. The latter 3 groups were
intraperitoneally injected with baicalin, with a dose of 12.5, 25 and 50
mg/kg, respectively. Then, the myocardial infarction model was established.
The hemodynamic of rats was tested, the serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),
creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), prostacyclin (PGI2) and thromboxane
A...

Effects of High-Intensity Inspiratory Muscle Training Associated with
Aerobic Exercise in Patients Undergoing CABG: Randomized Clinical
Trial
Objective: Evaluate the interaction between high-intensity inspiratory muscle training
(IMT) and aerobic exercise on physical capacity, respiratory muscle
strength, peripheral muscle strength, and quality of life of patients who
underwent coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods: Twenty-four patients underwent CABG were randomized into two groups. During
36 sessions, one group received IMT associated with aerobic exercise and the
other group received only aerobic exercise. Primary outcome was the distance
in the six-minute walk distance (6MWD) test. Secondary outcomes include...
