Publication Raising the bar to ultradisciplinary collaborations in management of chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension(Baycinar Medical Publ-baycinar Tibbi Yayincilik, 2021-07-01) Akay, Tankut; Kaymaz, Cihangir; Akar, Ahmet Ruchan; Orhan, Gokcen; Yanartas, Mehmed; Gultekin, Bahadir; Sirlak, Mustafa; Kervan, Umit; Tas, Serpil Gezer; Yagdi, Tahir; Ispir, Selim; Dogan, Riza; Bicer, Murat; BİÇER, MURAT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi/Kardiyovasküler Cerrahi.Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension is an underdiagnosed and potentially fatal subgroup of pulmonary hypertension, if left untreated. Clinical signs include exertional dyspnea and non-specific symptoms. Diagnosis requires multimodality imaging and heart catheterization. Pulmonary endarterectomy, an open heart surgery, is the gold standard treatment of choice in selected patients in specialized centers. Targeted medical therapy and balloon pulmonary angioplasty can be effective in high-risk patients with significant comorbidities, distal pulmonary vascular obstructions, or recurrent/persistent pulmonary hypertension after pulmonary endarterectomy. Currently, there is a limited number of data regarding novel coronavirus-2019 infection in patients with chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension and the changing spectrum of the disease during the pandemic. Challenging times during this outbreak due to healthcare crisis and relatively higher case-fatality rates require convergence; that is an ultradisciplinary collaboration, which crosses disciplinary and sectorial boundaries to develop integrated knowledge and new paradigms. Management strategies for the "new normal" such as virtual care, preparedness for further threats, redesigned standards and working conditions, reevaluation of specific recommendations, and online collaborations for optimal decisions for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension patients may change the poor outcomes.Publication Comparison of the effects of on-pump and off-pump techniques on the quality of life in coronary artery bypass surgery(Yerkure Tanitim & Yayincilik Hizmetleri A S, 2020-01-01) Binicier, Nofel Ahmet; Yolgosteren, Atif; YOLGÖSTEREN, ATIF; Bicer, Murat; BİÇER, MURAT; Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi/Tıp Fakültesi; AAG-2372-2021Objective: In this study, we aimed to compare the effects between on-pump and off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery on the effect of quality of life.Methods: Fifty patients who underwent isolated coronary artery bypass (CABG) between 01.08.2012 - 31.01.2013 were divided into two equal groups (group 1: off-pump CABG; group 2: on-pump CABG). The quality of life of all patients was evaluated using the SF-36 questionnaire in the postoperative first week and first month (8 basic parameters in SF-36 questionnaire form: Physical function, pain, physical role, mental health, emotional role, social function, fitness / fatigue, general health)Results: One week after CABG surgery, physical function, physical role, social function and emotional role were significantly better in group 1 than group 2 (p <0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of quality of life, one month after CABG surgery (p> 0.05). Physical function was significantly better in female gender one week after CABG (p <0.05). There was no difference between the two genders in terms of quality of life after one month (p> 0.05).Conclusion: We think that CABG performed off-pump in order to avoid from negative effects of cardiopulmonary bypass has no significant effect on the quality of life of the patients in the postoperative period. Nevertheless, in order to get a clearer idea on this issue, we think that large series studies should be conducted with a higher number of patients.
