Decrease of Total Antioxidative Capacity in Developed Low Cardiac Output Syndrome
Background. It has been known that cardiac surgery induces an oxidative stress. The persistent oxidative stress during reperfusion may lead to depressed myocardial function resulting in low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) necessitating inotropic or intra-aortic balloon counterpulsation support.
