The Future of the Perfusion Record: Automated Data Collection vs. Manual Recording
This study highlights the limitation of spot recording of perfusion events in the overall record keeping for perfusion management.
Second Generation of Minimal Invasive Extracorporeal Circuit: Pilot Study Resting Heart System
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) has evolved from a complex multifunctional system to the minimally invasive extracorporeal circuit (MIEC).
A sSngle Nucleotide Polymorphism of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor is Related to Inflammatory Response in Coronary Bypass Surgery Using Cardiopulmonary Bypass
Here we analyzed genotype distribution and allele frequency of the MIF-173*G/C single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and MIF plasma levels in patients undergoing surgical revascularization with (on-pump, n=45) and without (off-pump, n=34) cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Update on Pediatric Perfusion Practice in North America: 2005 Survey
This survey provides an overview of clinical practice in 2004. The series of surveys document the historical progression of clinical practice over the past 16 years.
Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF): A Second-Generation Platelet Concentrate. Part V: Histologic Evaluations of PRF Effects on Bone Allograft Maturation in Sinus Lift
In this article, we therefore attempt to evaluate the potential of PRF in combination with freeze-dried bone allograft (FDBA) (Phoenix; TBF, France) to enhance bone regeneration in sinus floor elevation.

Antegrade Cerebral Perfusion Reduces Apoptotic Neuronal Injury in a Neonatal Piglet Model of Cardiopulmonary Bypass
We sought to evaluate and compare the extent of neurologic injury in a neonatal piglet model of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest and antegrade cerebral perfusion.
Lower Limits of Hematocrit and Mixed Venous Oxygen Saturation Ensuring Sufficient Cerebral Oxygenation During Hemodilution in Rabbits
This study was performed to identify critical values for these variables that would be able to ensure sufficient jugular venous oxygen saturation (SjO2), which reflects global cerebral oxygenation.

Impact of Avoiding Cardiopulmonary Bypass for Coronary Surgery on Perioperative Cardiac Enzyme Release and Survival
This study examines the association between avoiding the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) for coronary surgery and postoperative cardiac enzyme (CE) release, and its subsequent impact on survival.
