A propensity score-matched comparison of deep versus mild hypothermia during thoracoabdominal aortic surgery.


Abstract

During descending thoracic aortic and thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repairs, the use of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest results in improved postoperative adverse outcome rates compared with non-deep hypothermic circulatory arrest techniques.

The development of reversible adverse outcomes is strongly associated with the development of permanent adverse outcomes.
