SCVA April 2018 Podcast: Society for the Advancement of Transplant Anesthesia: Liver Transplant Anesthesia Fellowship—White Paper Advocating Measurable Proficiency in Transplant Specialties Training
April 20, 2018 21:09 - 13 minutes - 12.7 MBThe anesthesia community has openly debated if the care of transplant patients was generalist or specialist care ever since the publication of an opinion paper in 1999 recommended subspecialty training in the field of liver transplantation anesthesia. In the past decade, liver transplant anesthesia has become more complex with a sicker patient population and evolving evidence-based practices. Transplant training is currently not required for accreditation or certification in anesthesiology, ...
SCVA June 2017 Podcast: Occupational Radiation Exposure of Anesthesia Providers
June 19, 2017 16:00 - 12 minutes - 11.1 MBAnesthesia providers are frequently exposed to radiation during routine patient care in the operating room and remote anesthetizing locations. Eighty-two percent of anesthesiology residents (n = 57 responders) at our institution had a “high” or “very high” concern about the level of ionizing radiation exposure, and 94% indicated interest in educational materials about radiation safety. This article highlights key learning points related to basic physical principles, effects of ionizing radia...

SCVA March 2016 Podcast: Cardiopulmonary Bypass Without Heparin
April 12, 2016 23:49 - 22 minutes - 8.99 MBDue to familiarity, short half-life, ease of monitoring, and the availability of a reversal agent, heparin remains the anticoagulant of choice for cardiac operations requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). However, occasionally patients require CPB but should not receive heparin, most often because of acute or subacute heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT). In these cases, if it is not feasible to wait for the disappearance of HIT antibodies, an alternative anticoagulant must be selected. A...
SCVA June 2015 Podcast: Routine Postoperative Care of Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting on Cardiopulmonary Bypass
June 23, 2015 20:47 - 28 minutes - 11.5 MBThe postoperative course of a patient undergoing cardiac surgery (CS) is dictated by a largely predictable set of interactions between disease-specific and therapeutic factors. ICU personnel need to quickly develop a detailed understanding of the patient’s current status and how critical care resources can be used to promote further recovery and eventual independence from external support. The goal of this article is to describe a typical operative and postoperative course, with emphasis on ...
SCVA December 2014 Podcast: Pulmonary Endarterectomy Part I. Pathophysiology, Clinical Manifestations, and Diagnostic Evaluation of Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension & Part II. Operation, Anesthetic Management, and Postoperative Care
November 12, 2014 00:04 - 27 minutes - 10.9 MBChronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) results from recurrent or incomplete resolution of pulmonary embolism. CTEPH is much more common than generally appreciated. Although pulmonary embolism (PE) affects a large number of Americans, chronic pulmonary thromboembolic hypertension remains underdiagnosed. It is imperative that all patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH) be screened for the presence of CTEPH since this form of PH is potentially curable with pulmonary endarterect...

SCVA March 2014 Podcast 2: Perioperative Fluid Management for Pulmonary Resection Surgery and Esophagectomy
November 10, 2014 17:47 - 22 minutes - 8.86 MBPerioperative fluid management is of significant importance during pulmonary resection surgery and esophagectomy. Excessive fluid administration has been consistently shown as a risk factor for lung injury after thoracic procedures. Probable causes of this serious complication include fluid overload, lung lymphatics and pulmonary endothelial damage. Along with new insights regarding the Starling equation and the absence of a third space, current evidence supports a restrictive fluid regimen ...
SCVA March 2014 Podcast 1: Pain Management Strategies for Thoracotomy and Thoracic Pain Syndromes
November 07, 2014 17:09 - 24 minutes - 9.79 MBPain after thoracic surgery can be severe and, in the acute phase, contribute to perioperative morbidity and mortality. Unfortunately, patients also incur a significant risk of chronic pain. Although there are guidelines for postoperative pain management in these patients, there is no widespread surgical or anesthetic best practice. Here, we review the recent literature on techniques specific to perioperative pain control for thoracic patients, including medical management, neuraxial blockad...
SCVA June 2014 Podcast: Pathophysiology of Cardiopulmonary Bypass Current Strategies for the Prevention and Treatment of Anemia, Coagulopathy, and Organ Dysfunction
June 18, 2014 23:23 - 21 minutes - 8.56 MBThe techniques and equipment of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) have evolved over the past 60 years, and numerous numbers of cardiac surgical procedures are conducted around the world using CPB. Despite more widespread applications of percutaneous coronary and valvular interventions, the need for cardiac surgery using CPB remains the standard approach for certain cardiac pathologies because some patients are ineligible for percutaneous procedures, or such procedures are unsuccessful in some. Th...
