Intensive Insulin Therapy Does Not Alter the Inflammatory Response in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: A Randomized Controlled Trial
. In a randomized controlled trial we studied the effect of strict glycemic control on the local and systemic pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory balance in non-diabetic patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass.
The Coronary Baroreflex in Humans
We set up a study to explore the presence of coronary baroreceptors in humans, which was performed with isolated, graded aortic root perfusion in patients during cardiopulmonary bypass.
Comparison of Pulmonary Gas Exchange in OPCAB Versus Conventional CABG
The aim of this study was to ascertain the possible benefit of OPCAB surgery on pulmonary gas exchange.
Pulse Contour Analysis After Normothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Cardiac Surgery Patients
The aim of this study was therefore to compare the COPiCCOpulse after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with a simultaneous measurement of the COPACtherm.

The Effect of Temperature and Aprotinin During Cardiopulmonary Bypass on Three Different Methods of Activated Clotting Time Measurement
. It appears that the MAX-ACT produces lower values and may necessitate additional heparin therapy for ACT target values considered safe during CPB.
Variations in Battery Life of a Heart-Lung Machine Using Different Pump Speeds, Pressure Loads, Boot Material, Centrifugal Pump Head, Multiple Pump Usage and Battery Age
This study was designed to examine the run time of a fully charged battery under various conditions of pump speed, pressure loads, pump boot material, multiple pump usage, and battery life.
Clinical Performance and Biocompatibility of Novel Hyaluronan-Based Heparin-Bonded Extracorporeal Circuits
We tested documented in vitro and ex vivo advantages of novel hyaluronan based heparin bonded extracorporeal circuits in a prospective randomized study.
Pulse Contour Analysis After Normothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Cardiac Surgery Patients
