  3. pulmonary artery
  4. aorta
27
Q

Irreversible, severe ventricular dysfunction leads to low ______

A

CO-Cardiac output

28
Q

Increase in mycardial fiber length means heart gets ________

A

distended (becomes baggy)

29
Q

______ can develop b/c kidneys are not working properly

A

Edema

30
Q

______ is a common anti inflammatory, typical one they use. A lot of bad things can happen to you on this. Used for ______

A
  • Prednisone

* Immunosuppression

31
Q

You don’t want to treat a rejection so well cause it could hurt the _______

A

Kidneys

32
Q

Bicaval cannulation used cause you don’t want blood Q going back where?

A

Right atrium. Look like they cannulate the IVC and SVC to completely bypass RA.

33
Q

_________ gives you option to perfuse the head vessels

A

Axillary Cannulation

34
Q

_____ is used on a descending aneurysm

A

Thoracotomy

35
Q

We need full bypass for which aneurysm?

A 
Decending aneurysm 
(might leave heart beating in this case)
36
Q

Includes dissections that involve the proximal aorta, arch, and descending aorta

A

DeBakey type I

37

45
Q

Crawford classification can be in how many types?

A

I, II, III, IV

46
Q

Thoracoabdominal Aneurysm Extent I involves:

A

Involves most of the descending thoracic aorta from the left subclavian down to the vessels in the abdomen
Usually the renal vessels are not involved

47
Q

Thoracoabdominal Aneurysms Extent II involves:

A

Begin at the left subclavian and extend to the infrarenal abdominal aorta even as far as the inguinal area

48
Q

Thoracoabdominal Aneurysms extent III involve:

A

Extent III

Involve the distal half of the descending thoracic aorta and substantial segments of the abdominal aorta

49
Q

Thoracoabdominal Aneurysms extent IV involve:

A

Extent IV

Involve the upper abdominal aorta and all or none of the infrarenal aorta

50
Q

Aortic Aneurysms risk factors:

A

Smoking
Hypertension
Atherosclerosis
Genetic disorders: Marfans Syndrome, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome

51
Q

Aneurysm etiology include:

A

Loss of elastic fibers and smooth muscle cells leading to cystic medial necrosis
The weakening of the aortic wall and loss of elasticity leads to an increase in the diameter of the aorta and dilation of the vessel
Dilation results in increased wall tension relative to aortic pressure

52
Q

Aneurysm Preemptive surgery is recommended when:

A

Ascending aneurysm is at 5.5 cm

Descending aneurysm is at 6.5 cm

53
Q

_________procedure is to save the valve if you can

A

Valve sparing procedure

Other procedures include:

  • Simple tube graft
  • Ross procedure
54
Q

Aortic arch aneurysms usually require ______

A

DHCA

May employ antegrade or retrograde cerebral perfusion)

55
Q

Bentall Procedure (5 steps)

A

Right axillary artery and right atrial cannulation
Placed on CPB and cooled to 16-18 degrees
Aorta is cross clamped and opened
Heart is arrested with cardioplegia infusion into the coronary ostia
Aortic valve is removed
(((Composite prosthesis is sutured to the aortic annulus
Coronary buttons are attached to the graft
The patient is completely cooled, the pump is stopped and the aortic cross clamped is removed
The distal ascending aorta and the proximal arch is excisedThe distal anastomosis is completed
Pump flow is initiated slowly to deair the graft
Rewarming is begun)))

56
Q

Ascending and arch replacement (5 steps)

A

Right axillary and right atrial cannulation
Cooling to 16-18 degrees
Aortic cross clamp and opening of the aorta
Cardioplegia via coronary ostia
Aorta is reconstructed with Teflon impregnated Dacron graft (Hemashield®)

(((After adequate cooling, the pump flow is stopped (circulatory arrest) the cross clamp is removed, and the arch is opened
A graft is anastomosed to the head vessels
A cross clamp is applied to the graft
Antegrade cerebral perfusion is begunAn “elephant trunk” graft is placed into the descending aorta
The proximal end of the elephant trunk graft is then anastomosed to the ascending graft
The graft from the head vessels in then anastomosed to the graft to complete the procedure)))
