Title: [Cardiac valve prosthesis in patients with infective endocarditis and chronic renal insufficiency in terminal stage on a programmable hemodialysis]. Author: Todurov BM, Mironiuk AI, Zograb'ian RO, Kuzmich IN, Goncharenko NV. Journal: Klin Khir; 2004 Feb; (2):26-8. PubMed ID: 15124470. Abstract: Mechanical cardiac valve implantation was performed in 3 patients with infective endocarditis, sepsis, chronical renal insufficiency of terminal stage, to whom the programmed dialysis was conducted. The operation was performed for vital indications. All the patients after the operation are alive, their treatment was continued, using programmed hemodialysis, effect of operation is good. The success of treatment of infective endocarditis in patients with chronical renal insufficiency of terminal stage depends on timely radical elimination of the infection foci in endocardium, the intracardial and systemic hemodynamics normalization, application of etiotropic antibacterial therapy, an adequate programmed hemodialysis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
