MELD-score for risk stratification in cardiac surgery
AbstractThe outcome of the patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is also influenced by the renal and hepatic organ functions. Risk stratification, using scores such as EURO Score II or STS Short-Term Risk Calculator for patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, ignores the quantitative renal and hepatic function; therefore, MELD-Score was applied in these cases. We retrospectively examined patient data using the MELD score as a predictor of mortality. To perform a univariate analysis of the data, patients were classified into three groups based on the MELD Score: MELD ...

Open Repair of Acute Type A Intramural Hematoma in 3 Patients
Tex Heart Inst J. 2020 Aug 1;47(4):290-297. doi: 10.14503/THIJ-20-7242.ABSTRACTAcute aortic syndrome encompasses classic aortic dissection and less common aortic phenomena, including intramural hematoma (IMH), a hemorrhage within the aortic media that occurs without a discrete intimal tear. We reviewed our experience with treating acute type A IMH to better understand this acute aortic syndrome. A review of our clinical database identified 1,902 proximal aortic repairs that were performed from January 2006 through December 2018; of these, 266 were for acute aortic syndrome, including 3 (1.1%) for acute type A IMH. Operativ...
