Neuromonitoring during adult cardiac surgery
The brain has been considered an index organ for global tissue perfusion because of the physiological processes aimed at flow preservation to vital organs of the body[1].When cerebral perfusion is compromised, other organs are likely inadequately perfused as well. It would therefore be prudent to monitor cerebral perfusion based on the proposition that interventions aimed at its preservation wi...
متن کاملNeuromonitoring in thyroid surgery.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Laryngeal nerve injuries are among the most important complications of thyroidectomy. Recently, the use of neuromonitoring has been increasingly employed in order to predict and document nerve function at the end of thyroidectomy. RECENT FINDINGS There is much controversy in recent studies concerning neuromonitoring in thyroid surgery. Some authors believe that the method do...
متن کامل[Intraoperative neuromonitoring in thyroid surgery].
BACKGROUND Intraoperative neuromonitoring of the recurrent laryngeal nerve in thyroid surgery facilitates the identification of anatomical structures in cervical endocrine surgery reducing the frequency of vocal cord paralysis. OBJECTIVE To study the normal electrophysiological values of the vague and recurrent laryngeal nerves before and after thyroid surgery. To compare rates of injury of r...
متن کاملCongenital Hypofibrinogenemia Detected during Preoperative Workup for Major Cardiac Surgery
Afibrinogenemia or hypofibrinogenemia is a quantitative defect in fibrinogen. It is a rare disease with estimated frequency of 1 in 1,000,000 population. Routine preoperative screening tests of coagulation disorders are insufficient to detect subtle disorders of fibrinogen. Herein, we report a child who was supposed to undergo open cardiac surgery for a large atrial septal defect. Preoperative ...
متن کاملUsefulness of Neuromonitoring in Thyroid Surgery
Introduction: Identifying the recurrent laryngeal nerve is the gold standard for reducing injury in thyroidectomy. Objective: To evaluate the usefulness of neuromonitoring in identifying the recurrent laryngeal nerve. Methods: This was a study of 259 recurrent laryngeal nerves at risk during thyroidectomy performed with neuromonitoring (group A: 129 nerves) and without neuromonitoring (control ...
