Perioperative stroke is one of the most severe and feared complications of cardiac surgery. Based on the timing of onset and detection, perioperative stroke can be classified as intraoperative or postoperative. The pathogenesis of perioperative stroke is multifactorial, which makes prediction and prevention challenging. However, information on its incidence, mechanisms, diagnosis, and treatment can be helpful in minimizing the perioperative neurological risk for individual patients. We herein provide suggestions on preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative strategies aimed at reducing the risk of perioperative stroke and at improving the outcomes of patients who experience a perioperative stroke.

This paper presents state of the art of the problem of diagnosis and treatment of orthostatic hypotension (OH). It focuses on the developed algorithms for diagnostics of classical orthostatic hypotension (COH), initial orthostatic hypotension (IOH) and delayed orthostatic hypotension (DOH). It describes the necessary methods for the differential diagnosis of the OH causes. Comparative analysis of the European Society of Cardiology and American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association/Society of Cardiac Rhythm was performed. The treatment options for different groups of patients with orthostatic hypotension are described.
