Abstract
Despite more than a half century of "safe" cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), the evidence base surrounding the conduct of anticoagulation for CPB has not been organized into a succinct guideline. For this and other reasons, there is enormous practice variability relating to the use and dosing of heparin, monitoring heparin anticoagulation, reversal of anticoagulation, and the use of alternative anticoagulants. To address this and other gaps, the Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS), the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA), and the American Society of Extracorporeal Technology (AmSECT) developed an Evidence Based Workgroup. This was a group of interdisciplinary professionals gathered together to summarize the evidence and create practice recommendations for various aspects of CPB. To date, anticoagulation practices in CPB have not been standardized in accordance with the evidence base. This clinical practice guideline was written with the intent to fill the evidence gap and to establish best practices in anticoagulation for CPB using the available evidence. To identify relevant evidence a systematic review was outlined and literature searches were conducted in PubMed® using standardized MeSH terms from the National Library of Medicine list of search terms. Search dates were inclusive of January 2000 to December 2015. The search yielded 833 abstracts which were reviewed by two independent reviewers. Once accepted into the full manuscript review stage, two members of the writing group evaluated each of 286 full papers for inclusion eligibility into the guideline document. Ninety-six manuscripts were included in the final review. In addition, 17 manuscripts published prior to 2000 were included to provide method, context, or additional supporting evidence for the recommendations as these papers were considered sentinel publications. Members of the writing group wrote and developed recommendations based on review of the articles obtained and achieved more than two thirds agreement on each recommendation. The quality of information for a given recommendation allowed assessment of the level of evidence as recommended by the AHA/ACCF Task Force on Practice Guidelines. Recommendations were written in the three following areas 1) Heparin dosing and monitoring for initiation and maintenance of CPB, 2) Heparin contraindications and heparin alternatives, 3) Reversal of anticoagulation during cardiac operations. It is hoped that this guideline will serve as a resource and will stimulate investigators to conduct more research and expand upon the evidence base on the topic of anticoagulation for CPB.

Abstract
Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare lesion with less than 300 cases reported. Optimal management and long-term outcomes are not well described. From August 1984 to June 2004, eight patients with leiomyosarcoma of the IVC were treated at our institution. Clinical and pathologic data, surgical management, and outcomes were assessed. Eight cases were identified (4 males) with a median age of 52 (range 29–66). Presenting symptoms included abdominal pain (n = 5, 63%), lower extremity edema (n = 2, 25%), and palpable mass (n = 2, 25%). Tumor location was between the renal and iliac veins (low) (n = 4, 50%), between the hepatic and renal veins (middle) (n = 3, 38%), and above the hepatic veins with right atrial extension (high) (n = 1, 12%). Two patients with preoperative IVC occlusion were managed with tumor excision and IVC ligation. Three patients had primary repair of the IVC after tumor excision. A polytetrafluorothylene (PTFE) tube graft was used for IVC reconstruction in three cases. There was no postoperative mortality. Postoperative morbidity included deep venous thrombosis (DVT) (n = 1), lower extremity edema (mild n = 1; moderate n = 1), GI bleed (n = 1), and chronic renal insufficiency (n = 1). One patient is currently receiving adjuvant chemotherapy. Four patients received chemotherapy after recurrence, and one received palliative radiation therapy as well. Median survival to this point was 60 months with a median follow-up of 39 months. The 5-year overall survival and disease-free survival was 31 per cent for both (CI 0.1–1.0). The type of IVC reconstruction had no effect on survival ( P = 0.22). Recurrence was discovered in four patients (50%) at a median time of 14 months. Resection of leiomyosarcoma of the IVC should be attempted whenever feasible. The management of the IVC can be managed with primary repair, ligation, or prosthetic graft. Long-term survival is possible if complete resection can be achieved.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The neuroprotective property of clomethiazole has been demonstrated in several animal models of global and focal brain ischemia. In this study the authors investigated the effect of clomethiazole on cerebral outcome in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery. METHODS Two hundred forty-five patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass surgery were recruited at two centers and prospectively randomized to clomethiazole edisilate (0.8%), 225 ml (1.8 mg) loading dose followed by a maintenance dose of 100 ml/h (0.8 mg/h) during surgery, or 0.9% NaCl (placebo) in a double-blind trial. Coronary artery grafting was completed during moderate hypothermic (28-32 degrees C) cardiopulmonary bypass. Plasma clomethiazole was measured at several intervals during and up to 24 h after the end of infusion. A battery of eight neuropsychological tests was administered preoperatively and repeated 4-7 weeks after surgery. Analysis of the change in neuropsychological test scores from baseline was used to determine the effect of treatment. RESULTS Neuropsychological assessments were completed in 219 patients (110 clomethiazole; 109 placebo). The mean plasma concentration of clomethiazole during surgery was 66.2 microm. There was no difference between the clomethiazole and placebo group in the postoperative change in neuropsychological test scores. CONCLUSION Clomethiazole did not improve cerebral outcome following coronary artery bypass surgery.

Abstract
Recent reports have suggested an increased risk of type A viral hepatitis in hemophilic patients treated with high purity factor VIII concentrates prepared using ion exchange chromatography coupled with solvent/detergent treatment for inactivation of viruses. To determine the capacity for removal or inactivation of hepatitis A virus during the factor VIII manufacturing process, human plasma and various factor VIII production intermediates were spiked with cell culture-propagated virus and subjected to scaled down conditions mimicking the manufacture of solvent/detergent factor VIII. The combination of antibody-mediated neutralization, cryoprecipitation, anion exchange chromatography, and lyophilization in the absence of sucrose resulted in a minimal reduction of 5.5 to 8.55 log10 in the infectivity of hepatitis A virus.

Abstract
An epidural type catheter was placed in the pleural space under direct vision before the closure of the chest in 24 patients who underwent thoracotomy for various types of lung or aortic surgery. All patients received intrapleural injections of 20 ml of 0.5 per cent bupivacaine with or without epinephrine as initial pain therapy. Patients also received subsequent doses of a similar volume of 0.375 per cent bupivacaine with epinephrine 1:200,000 up to four times a day for a maximum duration of seven days. Good pain relief was achieved in patients who underwent lateral and posterior thoracotomies. No pain relief was achieved in patients who underwent anterior thoracotomy or in patients in whom there was excessive bleeding in the pleural space. Bupivacaine blood concentrations were measured in 11 patients following the initial dose of 20 ml of 0.5 per cent bupivacaine (with epinephrine 1:200,000 in five of the 11 patients). The mean peak plasma concentration of bupivacaine when used with epinephrine was 0.32 +/- 0.02 microgram.ml-1. The mean peak plasma concentrations of bupivacaine when used without epinephrine was 1.28 +/- 0.48 microgram.ml-1. Our present data show that intrapleural analgesia is useful in the management of postoperative pain in patients who undergo thoracotomy. Our data also show that there is a significant decrease in peak plasma concentrations of bupivacaine when epinephrine is added to the solution (P less than 0.05).

Abstract
Prostaglandin E1 (PGE1) was administered by continuous infusion to a critically III 3-day-old infant with severe stenosis of the aortic valve. A beneficial response was evidenced by increases in systemic BP, pulses, perfusion, urinary output, and arterial pH. The infusion of PGE1 improved and stabilized the infant's condition so that cardiac catheterization and surgery could be performed. Successful aortic valvulotomy was performed with continued PGE1 infusion. To out knowledge, this report is the first to describe a patient in whom PGE1 was used successfully for palliation of critical aortic valvular stenosis.
