Massive Air Embolism Resulting in Ischemic Stroke after Left Ventricular Assist Device Implantation
Journal of cardiac surgery(2019)
摘要
We present the first case of ischemic stroke secondary to massive air embolus during implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). The patient experienced a suction event at the time of aortic cannula removal. Despite the use of all standard deairing techniques and flooding the operative field with continuous-flow carbon dioxide, a significant amount of air was delivered into the ascending aorta through the LVAD pump.
