Evaluation of the Appropriate Root Pressure for Maintaining Heartbeat during an Aortic Cross-clamp for Primary Repair of the Aortic Arch in Premature Infants with Associated Cardiac Anomalies
We developed a new cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) method to minimize myocardial damage during aortic arch reconstruction.
Program in Motion: SUNY Simulation (Video)
Edward Darling sidcusses the simulation program currently in use at SUNY (20 minutes).
Perfusionist Strategies for Blood Conservation in Pediatric Cardiac Surgery
There is increasing concern about the safety of homologous blood transfusion during cardiac surgery, and a restrictive transfusion practice is associated with improved outcome.
Evaluation of Capiox FX05 Oxygenator With an Integrated Arterial Filter on Trapping Gaseous Microemboli and Pressure Drop with Open and Closed Purge Line
These results suggest that the integrated arterial filter of the Capiox FX05 oxygenator significantly improves the capturing of GME but has little impact on membrane pressure drop.
Blood Transfusions Recruit the Microcirculation During Cardiac Surgery
The aim of this investigation was to test the hypothesis that blood transfusion has beneficial effects on sublingual microcirculatory density, perfusion, and oxygenation. To this end, sidestream dark field (SDF) imaging and spectrophotometry were applied sublingually before and after blood transfusion during cardiac surgery.
