Objective: To provide a new interpretation of the effect of intraoperative hemodynamic data on postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) development and to determine the accuracy of some biomarkers which are thought to be the early markers of renal injury.
Methods: One hundred adult patients who were connected to the heart-lung pump during open-heart surgery were included in this study. Hemodynamic data, oxygen delivery, and transfusions were recorded intraoperatively, and the preoperative and 3.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how bispectral index (BIS) monitoring can aid in achieving optimal anesthesia depth for cardiovascular surgery patients, who have limited hemodynamic reserve.
- The research involved two groups: one with visible BIS data for anesthesiologists to adjust dosages, and another with the BIS data concealed, relying instead on clinical indicators for anesthesia management.
- Results showed no significant differences in BIS values between the groups, indicating that anesthesia management should combine BIS monitoring with clinical assessments and hemodynamic monitoring for better outcomes.
Background: The purpose of this study was to compare the analgesic quality and duration of ropivacaine 0.2% with the addition of clonidine (1 microg.kg(-1)) with that of ropivacaine 0.
