Comparison of short-term outcomes of mild and moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest in aortic arch surgery: a single center retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Aortic arch surgery is one of the major challenges in modern aortic surgery, special cerebral and visceral organ protective strategies are still under progress. Whether mild hypothermic circulatory arrest (Mi-HCA) can be safely used in aortic arch surgery (AAS) is the focus of attention.

Methods

From January 2017 to June 2021, a retrospective cohort study of 138 consecutive patients was conducted at Beijing Anzhen Hospital. The study comprised patients who underwent AAS performed by a single surgeon during moderate-to-mild HCA. According to the core temperature at the beginning of circulatory arrest, the patients were divided into three groups: T₁ group (n=45; 25.76±0.75 ℃), T₂ group (n=43; 28.79±0.81 ℃), T₃ group (n=50; 31.46±0.79
