PP-148 Pediatric Atrial Septal Defect Closure Under General Anesthesia
Atrial septal defects (ASD) are present in about 1 in 1,500 children at birth and account for 30% to 40% of congenital heart disease in adults. ASD closure is usually performed for the prevention of stroke or right ventricular volume overload and pulmonary hypertension. Current American Heart Association guidelines recommend closure of ASDs for right atrial or right ventricular enlargement, paradoxic embolism, documented orthodeoxiaplatypnea and pulmonary hypertension. ASD closure results in symptomatic improvement and reductions in right ventricular size and pulmonary arterial pressures at any age.

BK channel β1-subunit deficiency exacerbates vascular fibrosis and remodelling but does not promote hypertension in high-fat fed obesity in mice
Conclusion: BK channel deficiency promotes increased sympathetic control of BP, and vascular dysfunction, remodelling and fibrosis, but does not cause hypertension in high-fat fed mice.

The effect of aorta unfolding and remodelling on oesophageal Doppler readings as probe depth is varied
Conclusions Increased lateral displacement and tortuosity of the descending aorta reduces the reliability of ODM measurements as probe depth is varied, especially with aging.

Novel 24-h ovine model of brain death to study the profile of the endothelin axis during cardiopulmonary injury
Conclusions: This novel, clinically relevant, ovine model of brain death demonstrated that increased pulmonary artery pressures are observed after brain death. This may contribute to right ventricular dysfunction and pulmonary injury. The development of this model will allow for further investigation of therapeutic strategies to minimise the deleterious effects of brain death on potentially transplantable organs.

Hemodynamic changes with high infusion rates of lipid emulsion. Experimental study in swine.
CONCLUSION: In doses used for drug-related toxicity, lipid emulsion cause significant hemodynamic changes with hypertension, particularly in the pulmonary circulation and increase in vascular resistance, which is a factor to consider prior to use of these solutions.

Preoperative evaluation and comprehensive risk assessment for children with Down syndrome.
Abstract Down syndrome is a common chromosome disorder affecting all body systems. This creates unique physiologic concerns that can affect safety during anesthesia and surgery. Little consensus exists, however, on the best way to evaluate children with Down syndrome in preparation for surgery. We review a number of salient topics affecting these children in the perioperative period, including cervical spine instability, cardiovascular abnormalities, pulmonary hypertension, upper airway obstruction, hematologic disturbances, prematurity, low birth weight, and the use of supplements and alternative therapies. Recom...

Effects of obstructive sleep apnoea risk on postoperative respiratory complications: protocol for a hospital-based registry study
Introduction Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), the most common type of sleep-disordered breathing, is associated with significant immediate and long-term morbidity, including fragmented sleep and impaired daytime functioning, as well as more severe consequences, such as hypertension, impaired cognitive function and reduced quality of life. Perioperatively, OSA occurs frequently as a consequence of pre-existing vulnerability, surgery and drug effects. The impact of OSA on postoperative respiratory complications (PRCs) needs to be better characterised. As OSA is associated with significant comorbidities, such as obesity, pulmo...

Rigorous anaesthesia management protocol for patients with intracranial arterial stenosis: a prospective controlled-cohort study
Conclusions The ERSIAS anaesthesia protocol successfully reduced intraoperative fluctuations of MAP and ETCO2. The protocol also achieved normocarbia and the intended hypertension. Trial registration number NCT01819597; Pre-results.

Roles of Caveolin-1 in Angiotensin II-Induced Hypertrophy and Inward Remodeling of Cerebral Pial Arterioles Vessel Remodeling
In conclusion, Cav-1 is essential in Ang II–mediated inward remodeling and hypertrophy in pial arterioles. Cav-1–induced MMP9 is exclusively involved in inward remodeling, not hypertrophy. Further studies are needed to determine the role of Akt in Ang II–mediated hypertrophy.

Simultaneous coronary and carotid revascularisation
Conclusion According to our experiences and results, the simultaneous performance of CEA and CABG in patients with severe coexisting carotid artery disease who require coronary revascularization has proved to be a safe and efficacious operative strategy in these high-risk patients.

Body habitus, serum albumin, and the outcomes after craniotomy for tumor: a National Surgical Quality Improvement Program analysis.
CONCLUSIONS In this National Surgical Quality Improvement Program analysis evaluating patients who underwent craniotomy for tumor, body habitus was not associated with differential mortality or neurological complications. However, obese patients had increased odds of a major perioperative complication, primarily due to higher rates of venous thromboembolic events and surgical site infections. Preoperative hypoalbuminemia was associated with increased odds of mortality and a nonroutine hospital discharge, suggesting that serum albumin may have utility in stratifying risk preoperatively in patients undergoing craniotomy. ...

O-013 Hypertension Decreases the Number and Duration of Collateral Openings during Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion (MCAO) and Impairs Reperfusion
ConclusionsThese results demonstrate that collateral flow during ischemia, and reperfusion, was impaired in hypertension likely due to vasoconstriction of LMAs. Understanding the function of pial collaterals under conditions such as hypertension, that is associated with little penumbral tissue, may provide targeted therapies to prevent collateral failure and extend the time window for treatment in these patients.DisclosuresM.

O-022 General Anesthesia, Baseline ASPECTS, Time to Treatment, and IV TPA Impact Intracranial Hemorrhage after Stentriever Thrombectomy: Pooled Analysis from SWIFT PRIME, SWIFT and STAR Trials
ConclusionsHigher baseline ASPECTS, better collaterals and general anesthesia are associated with lower incidence of ICH after neurothrombectomy with Solitaire stentriever. Prolonged time to treatment increases the risk of parenchymal hematoma and hemorrhage in ischemic territory. Parenchymal hematoma is distinctly associated with IV TPA. Of all ICH subtypes, sICH has the strongest impact on functional independence.DisclosuresR. Raychev: None. J. Saver: 2; C; Medtronic, Stryker, Boehrniger, Neuravia. R.
