Venous Return Cardiotomy

Cardotomy venous return is a condition in which the volume of blood returned from the heart to the veins sharply increases. This may occur after certain heart surgeries, such as pericardiectomy or mitral commissuratomy.

Cardiotomy venous return occurs due to the fact that after heart surgery there is a disruption of the heart valves, which leads to an increase in the volume of blood flowing from the ventricles of the heart into the veins. As a result, veins can become congested and blood can pool in the lungs and other organs.

Symptoms of venous return cardiotomy may include fatigue, shortness of breath, dizziness, chest pain and others. If not treated promptly, this can lead to serious complications such as heart failure, thrombosis and others.

Treatment for venous return cardiotomy may include the use of medications that help reduce the amount of blood returned to the heart, as well as the use of special devices to improve heart function. In some cases, additional surgery may be required to restore the function of the heart valves.

It is important to note that venous return cardiotomy may be associated with certain heart surgeries, so a full evaluation and consultation with your doctor should be performed before undergoing surgery.

Brief definition.

Venous return to the heart may become virtually unrestricted during heart valve surgery, interfering with normal circulation in the presence of heart failure or other cardiovascular disease. This may be due to the presence of pneumatic heart, a condition where the pulmonary vessels in the left atrium are absent, and blood is redirected directly from the pulmonary vessels directly to the right ventricle. This condition may occur due to pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, pulmonary fibrosis, or, less commonly, surgical injury to the pulmonary arterioles.

Symptoms Symptoms of venous return cardiotomy depend on the patient's condition, the area of ​​tissue that is surgically treated, and the damage associated with the surgery. Traditionally, the patient experiences a syncope drop in blood pressure for a short time after surgery; this may get worse if the patient has a fever or their blood pressure drops. Other signs may include strong pericardial pulsation, in which a heartbeat can be heard around and under the right edge of the sternum; there veins may be deformed or thickened. Sometimes you can also hear an internal chest noise, which may indicate
