Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Critical care of the cardiac surgical patient is a complex and dynamic endeavor. Successful outcomes after cardiac surgery depend on optimum postoperative critical care. The cardiac intensivist must have a comprehensive understanding of cardiopulmonary physiology and of the sequelae to cardiopulmonary bypass. Adequate fluid resuscitation, appropriate inotropic support, attention to rewarming, and ventilator management are key components. Patient safety is improved by having experienced personnel, a structured handover between the operating room and ICU teams, and appropriate transfusion strategies.
Furthermore, the armamentarium of cardiac surgery continues to expand, and the cardiac intensivist must be familiar with a broad spectrum of procedures and their specific management. Familiarity with the common complications and a structured approach to management facilitates the response to even the most complicated postoperative situations. Standardized care and constant self-examination are essential for program improvement and for consistent high-quality care.
This Special Issue is targeted at intensivists and surgeons and aims to discuss the routine management of perioperative cardiac surgical patients.
