Temperature dependence of cerebral blood flow for isolated regions of the brain during selective cerebral perfusion in pigs.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) and antegrade selective cerebral perfusion (ASCP) are utilized for cerebral protection during aortic surgery. However, no consensus exists regarding optimal ASCP-temperature showing a tendency toward ... Read more...

Intraoperative ventilatory strategies for prevention of pulmonary atelectasis in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Atelectasis occurs regularly after induction of general anesthesia, persists postoperatively, and may contribute to significant postoperative morbidity and additional health care costs. Laparoscopic surgery has been reported to be ... Read more...

Comparison of bipartite versus tripartite osteotomy for maxillary transversal expansion using 3-dimensional preoperative and postexpansion computed tomography data.

29 Sep 2009 PURPOSE: To evaluate tripartite paramedian versus bipartite median osteotomy in surgically assisted rapid maxillary expansion. Tripartite osteotomy was performed between the lateral incisors and canines at the former premaxillary junction to avoid ... Read more...
