Prolonged Periods of Antegrade Cerebral Perfusion Are Safe During Elective Arch Surgery
CONCLUSIONS: In this series of patients who underwent elective proximal aortic surgery using ACP, periods of circulatory arrest up to at least 80 minutes were not associated with significant increases in mortality or permanent stroke. Modern perfusion strategies have allowed for increased safety during elective arch cases requiring prolonged periods of circulatory arrest.PMID:35697114 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.05.038

Type-A Aortic Dissection Repair in Patients With Prior Cardiac Surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Major adverse events after surgery for acute type A aortic dissection were more frequent in patients with previous cardiac surgery. Previous cardiac surgery itself was not an independent predictor for adverse events, although the small sample size precludes definite conclusions. Previous cardiac surgery should not deter from emergency surgery.PMID:35688205 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.05.033

Deep sternal wound infection and mortality in cardiac surgery: A meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: When compared to patients who did not develop DSWI, patients with DSWI after cardiac surgery had increased risk of mortality as well as short- and long-term adverse clinical outcomes.PMID:35618048 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.04.054

Outcomes in Smaller Body Size Adults after HeartMate 3 Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
CONCLUSIONS: Outcomes following HM3 implantation were comparable between small and large patients. Smaller body size should not be used to deny HM3 implantation in patients who are otherwise suitable durable MCS candidates.PMID:35452663 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.03.071

Clinical Course of Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation After Cardiac Surgery and Long-Term Outcome
CONCLUSIONS: A more complicated POAF course is associated with increased long-term risk for heart failure hospitalization, but not for all-cause mortality or thromboembolic complications.PMID:35430224 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.03.062

HVAD to HeartMate 3 Left Ventricular Assist Device Exchange: Best Practices Recommendations
Ann Thorac Surg. 2022 Mar 18:S0003-4975(22)00154-0. doi: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2021.11.078. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe HeartWare HVAD System (Medtronic) is a durable implantable left ventricular assist device that has been implanted in approximately 20,000 patients worldwide for bridge to transplant and destination therapy indications. In December 2020, Medtronic issued an Urgent Medical Device Communication informing clinicians of a critical device malfunction in which the HVAD may experience a delay or failure to restart after elective or accidental discontinuation of pump operation. Moreover, evolving retrospectiv...

Transapical Ventricular Remodeling for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Systolic Cavity Obliteration
CONCLUSIONS: Transapical myectomy to enlarge LV cavity volume can be performed safely with good early survival and functional results. This procedure is an important alternative to cardiac transplantation for HCM patients with systolic cavity obliteration and progressive heart failure.PMID:35339438 | DOI:10.1016/j.athoracsur.2022.02.073
