    Phenotype definition for the Vanderbilt Genome-Electronic Records project Identifying genetics determinants of normal QRS duration (QRSd) Patient population: • Patients with DNA whose first electrocardiogram (ECG) is designated as “normal” and lacking an exclusion criteria. • For this study, case and control are drawn from the same population and analyzed via continuous trait analysis. The only difference will be the QRSd. Hypothetical timeline for a single patient: Notes: • The study ECG is the first normal ECG. • The “Mildly abnormal” ECG cannot be abnormal by presence of heart disease. It can have abnormal rate, be recorded in the presence of Na-channel blocking meds, etc. For instance, a HR >100 is OK but not a bundle branch block. • Y duration = from first entry in the electronic medical record (EMR) until one month following normal ECG • Z duration = most recent clinic visit or problem list (if present) to one week following the normal ECG. Labs values, though, must be +/- 48h from the ECG time Criteria to be included in the analysis: Criteria Source/Method “Normal” ECG must be: • QRSd between 65-120ms ECG calculations • ECG designed as “NORMAL” ECG classification • Heart Rate between 50-100 ECG calculations • ECG Impression must not contain Natural Language Processing (NLP) on evidence of heart disease concepts (see ECG impression.

Abstract Background: Perioperative myocardial damage is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality after heart surgery. The improvement of the technique of myocardial preservation has contributed greatly to significant advances in cardiac surgery. However, serious questions remain regarding the use of warm versus cold cardioplegia, blood versus crystalloid cardioplegia, antegrade versus retrograde delivery and intermittent versus continuous perfusion. Cardioplegic solution is the means by which the ischemic myocardium is protected from cell death. This is achieved by reducing myocardial metabolism through a reduction in cardiac workload and by the use of hypothermia. Chemically, the high potassium concentration present in most cardioplegic solutions decreases the membrane resting potential of cardiac cells. The normal resting potential of ventricular myocytes is about -90 mV.

  • Design and Development of a Combined Cardiovascular Assist System for Support in Severe Ventricular Failure
    RICE UNIVERSITY DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF A COMBINED CARDIOVASCULAR ASSIST SYSTEM FOR SUPPORT IN SEVERE VENTRICULAR FAILURE by Robert L. Peterson A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE THESIS DIRECTOR'S SIGNATURE: (MAY 1979) ABSTRACT Title: Design and Development of a Combined Cardiovascular Assist System for Support in Severe Ventricular Failure Author: Robert L. Peterson This thesis work documents the design and testing of a ventricular assist system combining intra-aortic balloon pumping (IABP) with partial veno-arterial bypass (VABP), both pulsatile and nonpulsatile. A series of animal experiments was carried out after verification of the concept on a mock circulation. Although statistical significance was not obtained, the results were encouraging. This system combines the beneficial features of the two devices in a synergistic manner to obtain a system capable of total body support while at the same time improving the viability of the damaged myocardium. IABP, itself incapable of supporting the circulation in severe heart failure, is used to reduce the afterload caused by VABP, which can provide more profound circulatory assistance. Diastolic augmentation by pulsatile VABP enhances that due to IABP, and there is further enhancement of IABP function due to increased mean arterial pressure. A decrease in heart preload pressure was seen which reflected the decreased venous return brought about by bypass. Thus, in spite of increased total body perfusion, cardiac output was diminished. The decrease in cardiac output was sufficient to reduce heart flow work even though there was an increase in afterload pressure. Finally, the state of the animal seemed to be improved by the assist system in that arrhythmia and mortality were decreased during combined assistance.

  • Postoperative Care of the Open-Cardiotomy Patient
    POSTOPERATIVE CARE OF THE OPEN-CARDIOTOMY PATIENT HAROLD F. KNIGHT, JR., M.D.,* and DONALD B. EFFLER, M.D. Department of Thoracic Surgery PEN-CARDIOTOMY patients require a postoperative program that is O individualized and meticulously supervised. There are no rules that can serve as a fixed guide for proper care. Experience in 103 operations, in 86 of which we performed elective cardiac arrest with potassium citrate,1-2 has established for us a set of procedures useful in the postoperative care. It is the intent of this paper to elaborate upon these basic observations. It is not necessary to review the general care of patients recovering from thoracic surgical pro- cedures; our interest is confined at present to patients who have undergone open cardiotomy. The details of this postoperative program are of particular import in the care of children; adults do not require such precise attention, as their larger body mass makes small variations relatively less important. Immediately Postoperative Care The changes in patients during the hours immediately after open cardiotomy are sufficiently rapid and severe that it is mandatory to have a qualified team in constant attendance. This is best accomplished with a special-care unit designed and equipped exclusively for these patients. The basic team should include a resident physician well trained in thoracic surgery, and experienced nurses who are particularly interested in the field of cardiac surgery. A fortunate selection of capable personnel may be rewarded by a self-perpetuating system as the service demands grow. A detailed description of the equipment will not be given here; suffice it to say that the usual implements of the recovery room are basic and must be augmented by such specialized equipment as Croupettes, inter- mittent positive-pressure-demand valves (such as the Bennett device), a large- screen monitor for the electrocardiogram, and specialized emergency pharma- ceuticals.
