Effect of Inflammatory Conditions on the Heart

  • Chapter
Multiple Organ Failure

Abstract

The heart plays a central role in multiple organ failure associated with inflammatory conditions during the course of sepsis or after cardiac surgery.1 Although appearing dissimilar at first, the conditions may have in common the generalized inflammatory state and the circulatory (i.e., cardiac) response to it (Fig. 35.1). This chapter describes the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and therapeutic approach to myocardial dysfunction associated with sepsis and cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.
