Overview
ACC/AHA Guidelines - Guidelines for the General Medical Treatment and Risk Factor Management for Patients With Thoracic Aortic Disease (DO NOT EDIT) [1]
Recommendation for Smoking Cessation
| Class I |
| "1. Smoking cessation and avoidance of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke at work and home are recommended. Follow-up, referral to special programs, and/or pharmacotherapy (including nicotine replacement, buproprion, or varenicline) is useful, as is adopting a stepwise strategy aimed at smoking cessation (the 5 A’s are Ask, Advise, Assess, Assist, and Arrange).

Class III Recommendations
Renal protection during Descending aortic open surgical and endovascular repairs
| “ |
1. Furosemide, mannitol, or dopamine should not be given solely for the purpose of renal protection in descending aortic repairs. (Level of Evidence: B) |
” |
Class IIb Recommendations
Renal protection during Descending aortic open surgical and endovascular repairs
| “ |
1. Preoperative hydration and intraoperative mannitol administration may be reasonable strategies for preservation of renal function in open repairs of the descending aorta.(Level of Evidence: C) 2. During thoracoabdominal or descending aortic repairs with exposure of the renal arteries, renal protection by either cold crystalloid or blood perfusion may be considered. (Level of Evidence: B) |
