Does retroperitoneal approach to abdominal aortic aneurysm repair preserve splanchnic perfusion as measured by gastric tonometry?
The retroperitoneal approach for open AAA repair is associated with gastric tonometric evidence of better splanchnic perfusion compared to the transperitoneal approach.
In survivors of a first acute uncomplicated MI DET allows effective risk stratification on the basis of the presence, severity, and extent the induced ischemia.
