Use of a Large Bore Syringe Creates Significantly Fewer High Intensity Transient Signals (HITS) Into a Cardiopulmonary Bypass System Than a Small Bore Syringe
Significantly fewer HITS are introduced into the CPB system by using standard syringes and slower injection time.
Bubbles and Bypass: An Update
Bubbles in the bloodstream are not a normal condition - yet they remain a fact of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), having been extensively studied and documented since its inception some 50 years ago.
Does Modified Ultrafiltration Reduce the Systemic Inflammatory Response to Cardiac Surgery With Cardiopulmonary Bypass?
This paper reviews the data regarding the use of MUF in paediatric and adult settings.
Comparison of ACT Point-Of-Care Measurements: Repeatability and Agreement
This study was designed to determine if the activated coagulation time (ACT) values of each analyser separately are repeatable, and to determine whether there exists a significant difference in ACT values measured by three different analyzers.
The Inflammatory Response to Cardiopulmonary Bypass: A Therapeutic Overview
In this review, we will provide an overview of integrated therapeutic strategies that can be utilized to minimize the complex and myriad changes related to inflammation after CPB with the understanding that this may abrogate the detrimental end-organ and systemic effects of blood activation.
Reliability of Point-Of-Care Hematocrit, Blood Gas, Electrolyte, Lactate and Glucose Measurement During Cardiopulmonary Bypass
In this prospective clinical study, the analytical performance of the GEM Premier 3000 was compared with the Ciba Corning 865 analyser for blood gas/electrolytes/metabolites, and for hematocrit with the Sysmex XE 2100 instrument.
