Abstract:Shifts from deep to moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest (HCA) in aortic arch surgery necessitate an examination of their differential impacts on neurocognitive functions, especially structured verbal memory, given its significance for patient recovery and quality of life. This study evaluates and synthesizes evidence on the effects of deep (≤20.0 °C), low-moderate (20.1–24.0 °C), and high-moderate (24.1–28.0 °C) hypothermic temperatures on structured verbal memory preservation and overall cognitive health … Show more
