  • Title: Simple and quick repair of cardiac rupture due to blunt chest trauma.
    Author: Doi A, Lee CN, Leng SA, Sorokin V.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2012 Feb; 20(1):64-5. PubMed ID: 22371946.
    Abstract:
    Atrial rupture following blunt chest trauma carries a high mortality rate. It can be difficult to maintain hemodynamic stability and control massive bleeding due to poor visualization. We describe a case in which bleeding control was obtained simply and effectively using a Satinsky clamp, allowing repair of atrial rupture without the use of cardiopulmonary bypass.
