Aortic arch replacement with simultaneous antegrade cerebral and systemic perfusion using a single centrifugal pump driven 'split arterial line' extracorporeal circuit design.

The ability to provide antegrade cerebral and systemic perfusion simultaneously may negate the requirement for any prolonged period of circulatory arrest during complex aortic arch reconstruction procedures, depending on the cannulation strategy. We describe the development and successful implementation of a custom 'split arterial line' extracorporeal circuit configuration to facilitate complex aortic surgery. This circuit design offers a wide range of cannulation and perfusion strategies, is safe, adaptable, simple to manage, and avoids the use of roller pumps for blood delivery, which are associated with deleterious haematological complications during prolonged cardiopulmonary bypass cases.

Portable ultrasound assessment of jugular venous pressure is an accurate method for estimating volaemic status in patients with cardiac disease.

Purpose: The objective of this study was to determine whether ultrasound-measured jugular venous pressure (U-JVP) could accurately estimate central venous pressure (CVP).

Methods: This prospective, diagnostic, single-centre study was performed at the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit of the Northern General Hospital, Sheffield, UK. Post-cardiac surgery patients were recruited from January to May 2019.

Fermi Surface Reconstruction and Electron Dynamics at the Charge-Density-Wave Transition in TiSe_{2}.

The evolution of the charge carrier concentrations and mobilities are examined across the charge-density-wave (CDW) transition in TiSe_{2}. Combined quantum oscillation and magnetotransport measurements show that a small electron pocket dominates the electronic properties at low temperatures while an electron and hole pocket contribute at room temperature. At the CDW transition, an abrupt Fermi surface reconstruction and a minimum in the electron and hole mobilities are extracted from two-band and Kohler analysis of magnetotransport measurements.
