Optimal temperature management in aortic arch surgery: A systematic review and network meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

New temperature management concepts of moderate and mild hypothermic circulatory arrest during aortic arch surgery have gained weight over profound cooling. Comparisons of all temperature levels have rarely been performed. We performed direct and indirect comparisons of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) (≤20°C), moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest (MHCA) (20.1-25°C), and mild hypothermic circulatory arrest (mild HCA) (≥25.1°C) in a network meta-analysis.

Methods

The literature was systematically searched for all papers published through February 2022 reporting on clinical outcomes after aortic arch surgery utilizing DHCA, MHCA and mild HCA. The primary outcome was operative mortality. The secondary outcomes were postoperative stroke and acute kidney f
