Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting on Right Ventricular Function
Introduction: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a widely used surgical procedure to improve blood flow in patients with coronary artery disease. While CABG effectively restores myocardial perfusion, its impact on right ventricular (RV) function has been a subject of ongoing research. A recent study utilizing speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) offers valuable insights into how…

How Intraoperative Hemofiltration Impacts Cardiac Surgery Outcomes: A Risk-Adjusted Analysis
Introduction Intraoperative hemofiltration (HF) is an evolving technique in cardiac surgery, particularly for patients with preoperative kidney disease. Research suggests that the timing of HF—whether performed intraoperatively or postoperatively—significantly influences patient outcomes. A recent study published in the Journal of Clinical Nephrology explored how intraoperative HF compares with postoperative HF in terms of mortality rates…
