Meanings of sternal wound in inglês

No patient had sternal wound infection or impaired wound healing during the follow-up period.

The absence of sternal wound infection delayed the diagnosis, but the patient successfully recovered with debridement surgeries and long-term antibiotic therapy.

VLAD plots for mortality, reopening for bleeding, deep sternal wound infection, stroke, myocardial infarction and need for postoperative dialysis were done.

Objective: The methods of primary versus delayed wound closure for the treatment of sternal wound infections after cardiac surgery were retrospectively compared.

Eleven patients developed deep sternal wound infections due to Candida albicans after undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and were assessed.

This novel therapy could potentially help prevent complications, such as deep sternal wound infection and could result in early postoperative ambulation after median sternotomy.

Sternal wound problems were categorized according to the consensus-based definitions.

Background: Sternal wound infection is a relatively rare but potentially devastating complication of open heart operations.
