lüll Carotid artery disease: stenting vs endarterectomy Erickson KM; Cole DJBr J Anaesth 2010[Dec]; 105 Suppl 1 (ä): i34-49Several multicentre, randomized trials have validated the efficacy of carotid endarterectomy (CEA). Comparative randomized trials are also currently developing insight into the role of carotid angioplasty and stenting (CAS), and identifying factors for optimal patient selection. Although these interventions are aimed at embolic stroke prevention, anaesthetic management might prevent the subset of strokes that are haemodynamic in nature by maintaining tight physiological control. The perioperative risk of myocardial events is increased in this population. Hence, preoperative attention to cardiovascular disease, hypertension, renal insufficiency, and diabetes mellitus might reduce neurological and cardiovascular complications. During carotid artery cross-clamping, the risk of cerebral ischaemia can be decreased by maintaining normal to high perfusion pressure. Although there is no demonstrable advantage of a specific anaesthetic technique for patients undergoing CEA, it is imperative that cerebral blood flow is optimized, that there is minimal cardiac stress, and that anaesthetic recovery is rapid. Carotid angioplasty and stenting is performed under light sedation with antithrombotic therapy and vigilance for bradycardia and hypotension. Tight haemodynamic control remains a priority in the immediate postoperative period for both interventions.|*Stents[MESH]|Anesthesia/methods[MESH]|Angioplasty/*methods[MESH]|Brain Ischemia/prevention & control[MESH]|Carotid Stenosis/diagnosis/*surgery[MESH]|Endarterectomy, Carotid/adverse effects/*methods[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Monitoring, Intraoperative/methods[MESH]|Preoperative Care/methods[MESH] |
