  • Retrograde crystalloid cardioplegia preserves left ventricular systolic function better than antegrade cardioplegia in patients with occluded coronary arteries
  • 2000
  • Ingår i: Journal of Cardiothoracic and Vascular Anesthesia. - : Elsevier BV. - 1053-0770 .- 1532-8422. ; 14:4, s. 383-387

    • Objective: To investigate retrograde and antegrade crystalloid cardioplegia in terms of cardiac cooling and postoperative cardiac function. Design: Prospective, randomized, and blinded. Setting: University hospital. Participants: Twenty male patients with triple-vessel disease and proximal occlusion of the circumflex or the left anterior descending coronary artery. Interventions: Left ventricular ejection fraction at rest and during exercise was evaluated by nuclear ventriculography the day before and 3 months after surgery. After induction of anesthesia and hourly for the first 5 postoperative hours, hemodynamic. echocardiographic, and electrocardiographic data were acquired. Myocardial temperature was measured with needle thermistors in 3 myocardial regions. Measurements and Main Results: Demographic and temperature data were analyzed by t-test. Hemodynamic and echocardiographic data were analyzed by analysis of variance. The groups were similar in baseline characteristics. Retrograde cardioplegia cooled the region distal to an occlusion better than antegrade cardioplegia (9.6 degrees C +/- 4.8 degrees C v 21.8 degrees C +/- 5.9 degrees C; p < 0.01). Hemodynamic, echocardiographic, and electrocardiographic data did not differ between the groups. Three months after surgery, the retrograde cardioplegia group showed a higher left ventricular ejection fraction at rest (58% +/- 10% v 47% +/- 10%; p < 0.02) and during exercise (58% +/- 13% v 47% +/- 10%; p < 0.05) compared with the antegrade cardioplegia group. Conclusions: Retrograde cardioplegia provides more homogenous myocardial cooling than antegrade cardioplegia in hearts with coronary artery occlusions. The use of retrograde cardioplegia seems to benefit long-term left ventricular function.

  • Fatigue in chronic heart failure, does gender make a difference?
  • 2002
  • Ingår i: The European Journal of Cardiovascular Nursing. - 1474-5151. ; :1, s. 77-82
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The primary aim of this study was to describe and compare the experience of fatigue in a group of elderly women and men with severe chronic heart failure. A sample of 158 patients (66 women and 92 men, with a mean age of 83 and 78 years, respectively) was invited to participate in a study on admission to a hospital outpatient heart failure clinic. A registered nurse interviewed patients using a modified version of the Fatigue Interview Schedule (FIS). Descriptions of the experiences of fatigue generally showed good agreement between men and women; however, some gender differences were found. Women expressed a clear role to fulfil because they were engaged in maintenance activities of their household. Although we still have only limited knowledge about the impact of gender on the experiences and coping strategies in disease and aging, it is important for care providers to consider gender differences when planning caring interventions.

  • Fatigued elderly patients with chronic heart failure: Do patient reports and nursing documentation correspond?
  • 2002
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Nursing Terminologies and Classifications. - 1541-5147. ; 13:4, s. 127-36
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • PURPOSE: To compare descriptions of fatigue from interviews with elderly people with chronic congestive heart failure (CHF) and data recorded by nurses at an outpatient heart failure clinic. METHODS: Patients (N = 158) were screened for moderate to severe CHF and interviewed using a revised form of the Fatigue Interview Schedule (FIS). Seventy-nine of these patients were offered visits at a nurse-monitored heart failure clinic. Nursing documentation of fatigue in patient records (n = 56) at the heart failure clinic was compared to the patient interviews. FINDINGS: Results indicated poor concordance between patients' descriptions and record content concerning fatigue. Decreased libido was linked to fatigue according to the patients but not to the nurses' notes. Cognitive characteristics of fatigue were rarely recorded, but were more frequent in patient interviews. CONCLUSIONS: Nurses must recognize characteristics and factors related to fatigue in patients and develop strategies to help patients cope with their restricted ability in daily life. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Using the words and expressions of the patients and the diagnostic characteristics of fatigue in record-keeping can support the nurses understanding of patients living with CHF.
