Background: Cardioplegia is a technique aimed at mitigating the complications of open heart surgery. Pediatric opulation commonly employs the Del Nido cardioplegia solution, among other types of cardioplegia. The safety and cardioprotective properties of this solution are studied here. Aims: The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DN as compared to ST in adults undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods: This retrospective study was carried out on 200 patients who underwent CABG in the department of cardiothoracic and vascular surgery at Government Medical College Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram. We contrasted the two groups' postoperative changes in LVEF (Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction) as well as the durations of CPB (Cardiopulmonary Bypass) and aortic CC (Cross Clamp). Results: The main conclusions of this analysis were that the processes using DN had shorter CC and CPB times (p < 0.005). In this trial, DN resulted in lower rates of death and acute postoperative complications, but these differences were not statistically significant. Conclusions: Del Nido cardioplegia could be an efficacious and safe cardioplegia solution with the important benefits of reducing surgery time, CPB time, and postoperative complications. However, prospective, large-scale studies are required to generalise these findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
