Georg Rodewald University of Hamburg Hamburg, Federal Republic of
Germany Allen E. Willner Hillside Hospital Glen Oaks, NY In
contrast to the initial years of cardiac surgery (37 years ago),
there is now increasing interest in cerebral protection. Rodewald
[1] in 1978 was among the first to point out the surgeon's concern
with "psychopathological problems" and Taylor [2] in 1989 stressed
that" *** the awareness of the cerebral consequences of open heart
surgery has risen considerably in recent years * * * " This book
reviews the evidence for neurological, psychological, and
neuropsycho logical reactions to cardiac surgery. In previous
studies one problem is that small samples of patients were studied
with different measuring instruments so that it was difficult to
ma~e sense of inconsistent findings. Considerable controversy
resulted with little ability to sort out discrepant findings. It
appeared that a large multi center study using uniform measures
might help clarify the picture.
