Catastrophic hemorrhage during redo sternotomy.

A R Dobell, A K Jain

    The Annals of Thoracic Surgery
    |April 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    This study reviewed surgeon attitudes towards repeat sternotomy and analyzed severe hemorrhages during the procedure. Most hemorrhages occurred when the pericardium was not closed during the initial surgery, informing management strategies for second sternotomies.

    Area of Science:

    • Cardiovascular Surgery
    • Surgical Techniques
    • Patient Safety

    Background:

    • Second sternotomy is a critical procedure with inherent risks.
    • Understanding surgeon attitudes and hemorrhage causes is vital for improving outcomes.

    Observation:

    • 131 surgeons' attitudes towards repeat sternotomy were surveyed.
    • 144 severe hemorrhages during sternotomy were assessed.
    • 88% of hemorrhages occurred when the pericardium was not closed after the first operation.

    Findings:

    • Surgeon attitudes indicate a need for standardized protocols.
    • Incomplete pericardial closure significantly increases hemorrhage risk during repeat sternotomy.
    • Hemorrhage management during second sternotomy requires specific strategies.

    Implications:

    • Recommendations are provided for managing second sternotomies.
    • Guidance is offered for controlling hemorrhage during repeat sternotomy procedures.
    • Improving surgical practices can mitigate risks associated with repeat sternotomy.
