Key result
Creation of an interatrial septal defect, amiodarone, and continuous nasal oxygen therapy can reduce postoperative mortality and morbidity in primary pulmonary hypertension patients undergoing CABG.
Why the study?
Does the creation of an interatrial septal defect, amiodarone infusion, and continuous nasal oxygen therapy reduce postoperative mortality and morbidity in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery?
Does the creation of an interatrial septal defect, amiodarone infusion, and continuous nasal oxygen therapy reduce postoperative mortality and morbidity in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery?
In patients with primary pulmonary hypertension undergoing CABG, creating an interatrial septal defect and managing arrhythmias with amiodarone and oxygen may reduce postoperative mortality and morbidity.
Should not yet change perioperative management in PPH-CABG; leaves open confirmation in prospective trials.
Coronary artery bypass surgery in patients with primary pulmonary hypertension is extremely rare. Right ventricular failure due to persistent elevation of pulmonary pressure is the most important complication in the postoperative period. Creation of an interatrial septal defect and reducing postoperative supraventricular arrhythmia by amiadarone infusion and continuous nasal oxygen therapy can reduce postoperative mortality and morbidity.

Kuralay et al. (2008) conducted a review in Primary pulmonary hypertension. Creation of an interatrial septal defect, amiodarone infusion, and continuous nasal oxygen therapy was evaluated on Postoperative mortality and morbidity. Creation of an interatrial septal defect, amiodarone, and continuous nasal oxygen therapy can reduce postoperative mortality and morbidity in primary pulmonary hypertension patients undergoing CABG.
