Combined coronary and carotid artery disease: what to operate on first? or both at the same time?
Heart disease and stroke rank amongst the top four leading causes of death in the United States.1 Studies have demonstrated a positive correlation between the two, even suggesting that carotid artery disease may predict the presence of coronary artery disease (CAD).2,3 In fact, some have found that the prevalence of carotid artery stenosis (CAS) in those undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) may be as high as 8-14%.4 Despite such co-existence, there remains no clear consensus Guidelines for revascularization in patients with co-existing CAD and CAS.

Invited Commentary on the Postpartum Preeclampsia ECMO Case Conference
PREGNANCY, DESPITE its common nature and reputation as a “natural stage” of female existence, has profound physiologic effects. The cardiovascular system evolves as early as 6 weeks' gestation to establish appropriate uteroplacental circulation to support a growing fetus and supply the increased demands on maternal metabolism.1 Cardiac output increase s throughout pregnancy and can reach up to 150% of prepregnancy levels by the twenty-fourth week, and is largely achieved by an increase in stroke volume; cardiac magnetic resonance imaging demonstrates increases in left ventricular end-diastolic volume and left ventricular mass.

Opioid-Free Cardiac Surgery: A Multimodal Pain Management Strategy With a Focus on Bilateral Erector Spinae Plane Block Catheters
CARDIAC SURGERY REQUIRING STERNOTOMY presents unique challenges for perioperative and postoperative analgesia. Intraoperatively, the sympathetic response to surgical stimulation must be modulated carefully to prevent excessive bleeding, maintain the integrity of surgical repairs, and decrease the risk of stroke or iatrogenic aortic injury without compromising myocardial and systemic perfusion. This must be achieved in patients whose underlying abnormal physiology, coupled with the effects of the surgical procedure, often result in tenuous hemodynamics.

Perioperative Quality Initiative and Enhanced Recovery After Surgery-Cardiac Society Consensus Statement on the Management of Preoperative Anemia and Iron Deficiency in Adult Cardiac Surgery Patients
Anesth Analg. 2022 Sep 1;135(3):532-544. doi: 10.1213/ANE.0000000000006148. Epub 2022 Aug 17.ABSTRACTPreoperative anemia is common in patients presenting for cardiac surgery, with a prevalence of approximately 1 in 4, and has been associated with worse outcomes including increased risk of blood transfusion, kidney injury, stroke, infection, and death. Iron deficiency, a major cause of anemia, has also been shown to have an association with worse outcomes in patients undergoing cardiac surgery, even in the absence of anemia. Although recent guidelines have supported diagnosing and treating anemia and iron deficiency before ...

Routine or selective carotid artery shunting for carotid endarterectomy (and different methods of monitoring in selective shunting)
CONCLUSIONS: This review concluded that the data available were too limited to either support or refute the use of routine or selective shunting in carotid endarterectomy when performed under general anaesthesia. Large-scale randomised trials of routine shunting versus selective shunting are required. No method of monitoring in selective shunting has been shown to produce better outcomes.PMID:35731671 | PMC:PMC9216235 | DOI:10.1002/14651858.CD000190.pub4

Morbidity and mortality in patients managed with high compared with low blood pressure targets during on-pump cardiac surgery: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
ConclusionIndividual trial definitions of high and low blood pressure targets varied, limiting inferences. The effect of high (compared with low) blood pressure targets on other morbidity and mortality after cardiac surgery remains unclear because of limitations with the body of existing evidence. Research to determine the optimal management of blood pressure during cardiac surgery is required.Study registrationPROSPERO (CRD42020177376); registered: 5 July 2020.

Bringing WISDOM to Breast Cancer Care
Dr. Laura Esserman answers the door of her bright yellow Victorian home in San Francisco’s Ashbury neighborhood with a phone at her ear. She’s wrapping up one of several meetings that day with her research team at University of California, San Francisco, where she heads the Carol Franc Buck Breast Care Center. She motions me in and reseats herself at a makeshift home office desk in her living room, sandwiched between a grand piano and set of enormous windows overlooking her front yard’s flower garden. It’s her remote base of operations when she’s not seeing patients or operating at the hospita...
