10 Cards in this Set
- Front
- Back
Purpose?
|
Myocardial revascularization w/ conduit to bypass occluded vessel
|
|
Indications?
|
Vessel disease
Diffuse atherosclerotic lesions LV dysfunction |
|
Describe the vessels used for the CABG
|
Saphenous vein
-req 2 anastomosis sites -endoscopic harvesting possible Internal mammary artery -left or right, LIMA or RIMA -best choice, better patency -only one anastomosis site Radial artery -associated with high rates of spasm |
|
What is important to note about the mechanical circulation and oxygenation of blood during the procedure?
|
It is heparinized and hemodiluted
|
|
What is the purpose of a COX-MAZE procedure?
Describe the TMR procedure |
Tx for afib
Transmyocardial surgical laser revascularization Angina refractory to medical therapies |
|
Describe 2 main points about a beating heart surgery
Describe cell saver |
It is done "off-pump" and it is less invasive
Intraoperative cell salvage machine suctions, washes, and filters blood so it can be given back tot he patient's body instead of being thrown away. |
|
Describe function of mediastinal tube
|
-mediastinal space encloses the esophagus, trachea, heart and aorta
-removes fluid from mediastinal space |
|
Management for CABG Mediastinal Tubes
|
Monitor mediastinal tube drainage
-too much > 100 mL/hr x2 call MD ADM PLATELETS, FFB, PRBC PROTAMINE -too little; if fresh postop expect more output --assess for cardiac tamponade otherwise maybe ok |
|
Describe Cardiac tamponade manifestations
|
Elevated filling pressures (cvp, padp, paop)
Dec CO Dec BP JVD Muffled heart tones Sudden decrease in chest tube drainage Widened cardiac silhouette on CXR |
|
Managament of CAB
|
Monitor PAC, CO, CVP, Ventricular filling pressures, SVO2, arterial line (continuous BP)
Weaning from ventilator Dangle pt on side of bed within 2hrs of extubation OOB to chair in 24-48hr |
