Enger, Tone Bull; Pleym, Hilde; Stenseth, Roar; Greiff, Guri; Wahba, Alexander; Videm, Vibeke (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)Objective To investigate whether a multimarker strategy combining preoperative biomarkers representing distinct pathophysiologic pathways enhances preoperative risk assessment of acute kidney injury after cardiac surgery ... -
Bleeding after adult cardiac surgery: Clinical and genetic risk factors and effect of prophylactic treatment with tranexamic acid
Greiff, Guri (Doctoral thesis at NTNU;2015:162, Doctoral thesis, 2015)Background: Postoperative excessive bleeding is still one of the most common complications in cardiac surgery and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Major bleeding is a partially modifiable risk factor, ... -
Limited effect of red blood cell transfusion on long-term mortality among anaemic cardiac surgery patients
Tran, Long; Greiff, Guri; Wahba, Alexander; Pleym, Hilde; Videm, Vibeke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)OBJECTIVES Our goal was to investigate long-term mortality associated with red blood cell (RBC) transfusion among patients with anaemia undergoing cardiac surgery when adjusting for known risk factors.

Transfusion of red blood cells in coronary surgery: is there an effect on long-term mortality when adjusting for risk factors and postoperative complications?
Tran, Long; Greiff, Guri; Pleym, Hilde; Wahba, Alexander; Stenseth, Roar; Videm, Vibeke (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to compare long-term mortality in patients undergoing primary isolated coronary artery bypass grafting who received ≥1 units of red blood cells (RBCs) or no RBCs. We hypothesized that ...
