The effect of 20 mmol/L butanedione monoxime on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion damage was studied in isolated guinea pig hearts. Three groups of hearts (n = 8) were perfused in the Langendorff mode and cardioplegic arrest was induced with St. Thomas Hospital II solution (STS) at 37 degrees C for 50 min. Myocardial oxygen demand, recovery of myocardial function, and creatine kinase release during 30 min of reperfusion were monitored. Preservation of myocardial ultrastructure was determined by electron microscopy. Control (C) hearts underwent cardioplegic arrest and reperfusion without treatment. BDM was added during cardioplegic arrest in BDMSTS hearts, or to the initial (20 min) reperfusate in BDMREP hearts. BDM during initial reperfusion markedly reduced O2 demand and prevented creatine kinase release from cardiac myocytes, resulting in improved recovery of myocardial function and attenuation of myocardial ultrastructural damage after washout of the drug. In contrast, addition of BDM to the cardioplegic solution provided no protection from ischemic or reperfusion injury.

Direct Axillary Artery Cannulation as Standard Perfusion Strategy in Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.
J Cardiovasc Dev Dis

Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Heart-Thorax Center, Klinikum Fulda, University Medicine Marburg, Campus Fulda, 36043 Fulda, Germany.
Objective: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) via the right axillary artery (RAA) has become an alternative perfusion strategy, especially in complex aortic procedures. This study delineates our technique and outcome with direct axillary cannulation utilizing the Seldinger technique, which we adopted as the standard perfusion strategy in the sternum-sparing minimally invasive total coronary revascularization via left anterior thoracotomy (TCRAT) using CPB.
Methods: From November 2019 to December 2023, a total of 413 consecutive patients underwent nonemergent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) via left anterior minithoracotomy on CPB with peripheral cannulation via the RAA and cardioplegic cardiac arrest, using this technique as a default strategy in the daily routine.
Enhanced recovery in type A aortic dissection evaluating the efficacy and feasibility of early myocardial reperfusion.

Background: This study investigates the feasibility and early outcomes of early myocardial reperfusion in patients with type A aortic dissection (TAAD), evaluating its effectiveness and potential benefits compared to traditional cardioplegic arrest techniques.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 168 patients diagnosed with TAAD who underwent surgery at the General Hospital of the Northern Theater Command in China from January 2021 to July 2024. Patients were divided into two groups: early myocardial reperfusion (EMR group, = 66) and cardioplegic arrest (CA group, = 102).
A Beating Heart is a Happy Heart, Especially in Patients with LV Dysfunction Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting.

Beating-heart CABG in patients with LV dysfunction can provide the best of all words by limiting myocardial injury purported by cardioplegic arrest. Complete revascularization is possible and graft numbers are not different when compared to arrested heart CABG. Furthermore, beating-heart CABG more often reduces the need for intraoperative and postoperative mechanical support reducing the complications and costs associated with these devices.

Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Lankenau Heart Institute, Wynnewood, PA, USA.
Purpose: Research on the safety and efficacy of del Nido cardioplegia in adult patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is limited. We evaluated the effect of del Nido cardioplegia on early outcomes of cardiac surgery in this cohort.
Methods: PubMed, Scopus, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched through August 2024 to conduct a meta-analysis comparing del Nido to other cardioplegia in adult patients with reduced LVEF (≤50%).
The cardioprotective effects of HTK solution and conventional blood cardioplegia in patients with atrial fibrillation undergoing valvular replacement and Cox maze III procedure.

Introduction: The study was to assess the myocardial protection effects of the histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) solution and the 4:1 blood cardioplegia (BC) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who were subjected to valvular replacement concomitant with the Cox maze III surgery.
Methods: A cohort of 148 individuals afflicted with AF, who received valve replacement surgery in conjunction with the Cox maze III procedure at our clinic within the period extending from 2015 to 2023, were enrolled. Subsequent to adjustment by propensity score matching (PSM), the patients were categorized into two distinct groups: the HTK group and the BC group.
