A Canadian community advancing
CANCARE connects clinicians, researchers and trainees to improve care for critically ill cardiovascular patients through collaboration, shared learning and research.
Latest evidence
Concise summaries, clinical context and links to the original research.
Clinical takeaway Early white blood cell count change was associated with subsequent mortality, but it did not clearly improve prediction beyond baseline information in external validation.
Clinical takeaway The available randomized evidence does not demonstrate improved kidney or other clinical outcomes with intraoperative hemoadsorption in elective cardiac surgery. The findings remain inconclusive rather than establishing absence of benefit.
Clinical takeaway Inhaled nitric oxide was temporally associated with an early reduction in pulmonary artery pressure during Impella-based support. This pilot does not establish clinical benefit or a causal haemodynamic effect.
