is a major complication after cardiopulmonary bypass especially in patients with infective …

Objectives: Risk assessment in ICU patients using commonly used prognostic models may
be influenced using different data definitions and by errors in data collection. We …

Objective: We evaluated the utility of preoperative midregional (MR) pro-adrenomedullin
(proADM) and cardiac troponin T (TnT) for improved detection of patients at high risk for …

Abstract Background Mid-Regional-Pro-Adrenomedullin (MR-Pro-ADM) is a marker of
severity in a wide spectrum of pathological conditions, such as sepsis, and cardiovascular …

Purpose: Complications after surgery are still matter of concern. In this study we assessed
mid-regional proadrenomedullin (MR-proADM) in comparison to white blood cell count …

Purpose The aim of this study was to analyse the course of adrenomedullin (ADM) and
endothelin-1 (ET-1) levels in patients with vasodilatory shock after cardiac surgery and to …

Introduction: A potentially new marker of cardiovascular diseases—proadrenomedullin is the
precursor of adrenomedullin, which is a multifunctional peptide hormone, produced in most …

Recently published study revealed that out of a total number of patients undergoing a major
non-cardiac surgery, 5% of them could have myocardial infarction 1. After 30 days from the …

Background: Procalcitonin (PCT) is a marker for sepsis diagnosis, identification of bacterial
infection and monitoring of antibiotic therapy. It has been shown that PCT is not a good …
