METHOD FOR PROTECTING CEREBRUM AND CERVICO-SUPRATHORACIC DEPARTMENT OF SPINAL CORD AGAINST ISCHEMIA AT RECONSTRUCTIVE OPERATIONS UPON THORACIC AORTA

摘要

FIELD: medicine, cardio-vascular surgery.;SUBSTANCE: one should apply a catheter into left radial artery up to subclavian one, moreover, it should be connected with a measuring device of arterial pressure and an infusomat. One should put on cuffs with connected manometers and delivery pumps onto both patient's shoulders, then during aortal squeezing and that of left subclavian artery both cuffs should be delivered with air till values of manometers' cuffs would be 5-10 mm mercury column above those of arterial pressure measuring device. After that through infusomat one should introduced chilled solution of medicinal preparations decreasing the intensity of metabolic processes in the cells of spinal cord. After removing a clamp from aorta and left subclavian artery both a catheter and cuffs should be removed, as well. The innovation increases the number of means necessary to protect cerebrum and cervico-suprathoracic department of spinal cord at reconstructive operations upon thoracic aorta.;EFFECT: higher efficiency of protection.;1 ex
