Objective: To determine the effectiveness of hypothermia on renal functions for patients undergoing
coronary artery bypass graft CABG surgery.
Methodology: A purposive (non-probability) sample of (50) patients undergoing Isolated coronary artery
bypass graft surgery consecutively admitted to the surgical ward, and they were followed up in the
intraoperative, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) and in the postoperative (surgical ward). Post-operative renal function
test (glumeruler filteration rate (GFR) by using the Crockroft-Gault formula and serum creatinine level) was
determined first week post operative and post operative renal function was classified on the base of peak of
the serum creatinine level and decline of glomeruler filteration rate(GFR) as following : normal renal function
serum creatinine concentration and decline in(GFR) less than 25% from preoperative, moderate renal
dysfunction increase serum creatinine concentration and decline in(GFR) 25%-50% from preoperative, sever
renal dysfunction increase serum creatinine concentration and decline in(GFR) more than 50% from
preoperative test.
Results: results of this study show that (78%) from the sample develop post operative renal dysfunction and
the highly percentage of them are male (50%), advance age 60-70 (60%), smoking (47.0%), diabetes mellitus
DM (68%), cardiopulmonary bypass 180 and more (57.20%), New York Heart Association calcification NYHA
class III(47.5%) and patient without Intra Aortic Balloon Pump IABP(50,0%) . We conclude from the study that
highly percentage of patient undergoing isolated CABG may develop postoperative renal dysfunction even
when using hypothermic strategy as a protective measure and the patients with DM, male, advance age,
smoker, prolong time of CPB (more than 180 minutes), NYHA class III and patient without IABP are considered
as patient at high risk to develop postoperative renal dysfunction.
Recommendations: The researcher recommended that to find addition strategy rather than hypothermia
to protect renal function especially with the high risk patients during isolated CABG surgery.
numerical study is applied to the mercury-argon mixture by solving the boltzman transport equation for different mixture percentage.
In this paper we introduce generalized (α, β) derivation on Semirings and extend some results of Oznur Golbasi on prime Semiring. Also, we present some results of commutativity of prime Semiring with these derivation.
The aim of this paper is to examine cases of deletion not dependent on linguistic context. Perlmutter (1971) claims that any sentence other than an imperative1 in which there is an S that does not contain a subject in the surface structure is ungrammatical. Dillon (1978) counts elliptical sentences such as ^ Beg your pardon2 as grammatically incomplete (and hence as strictly ungrammatical). Such statements are, however, not without problems for reasons that will be given below.
The purpose of the study is the city of Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, was chosen to study the spectral reflection of the land cover and to determine the changes taking place in the areas of the main features of the city using the temporal resolution of multispectral bands of the satellite Landsat 5 and 8 for MSS and OLI sensors respectively belonging to NASA and for the period 1999-2021, and calculating the increase and decrease in the basic features of Baghdad. The main conclusions of the study were, This study from 1999 to 2021 and in two different seasons: the Spring of the growing season and Summer the dry season. When using the supervised classification method to determine the differences, the results showed remarkable changes. Where h
... Show MoreThe present work presents design and implementation of an automated two-axis solar tracking system using local materials with minimum cost, light weight and reliable structure. The tracking system consists of two parts, mechanical units (fixed and moving parts) and control units (four LDR sensors and Arduino UNO microcontroller to control two DC servomotors). The tracking system was fitted and assembled together with a parabolic trough solar concentrator (PTSC) system to move it according to information come from the sensors so as to keep the PTSC always perpendicular to sun rays. The experimental tests have been done on the PTSC system to investigate its thermal performance in two cases, with tracking system (case 1) and without trackin
