Evidence of Global Warming: A Meta-Analysis of Temperature Management in Aortic Surgery
Author(s): Florian Huber*
Objectives: Treatment of aortic pathologies involving the distal ascending aorta, aortic arch, and descending aorta remains a complex and challenging procedure. Appropriate management is important to achieve satisfactory outcome. Surgical management aims to reduce the time of circulatory arrest. The optimal level of hypothermia is still a matter of debate. The present meta-analysis shows the influence of different temperature levels on mortality and morbidity following aortic arch surgery. Methods: We performed a meta-analysis of published data between January 2000 and March 2020 based on a literature research. 120 studies were included with a total of 32,323 patients divided into three different groups of systemic hypothermia (temperature group 1: ≥ 25°C, temperature group 2: 25-20°C, temperature group 3: ≤ 20&de..
