Effects of Cardiopulmonary Bypass on Glucose Homeostasis After Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
This study aimed to determine the contribution of cardiopulmonary bypass to hyperglycaemia after coronary artery bypass.
Relationship Between Granulocyte Elastase and C3a Under Protamine Dosing in On-Pump Cardiac Surgery
This study indicates that GEL does not increase after protamine administration and that complement concentration does not directly affect GEL release.
Should I Change to OPCAB?
Much is written about the benefits of off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery (OPCAB). Is it applicable to all practices?
Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Concentration on the Viability and Proliferation of Alveolar Bone Cells: An in Vitro Study
These in vitro results support the view that variations in the PRP concentrations might influence the bone formation within the PRP-treated bone grafts.
Maintenance of Life With Intravenous Oxygen: Article from a Pioneer
Dr. Lillehei with Dr. DeWall then built and clinically established a heart lung machine using a bubble oxygenator. This became the standard method for oxygenating blood in the heart lung machine until the membrane oxygenator was perfected approximately twenty years ago.

Hypothermia-Induced Platelet Aggregation and Cognitive Decline in Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: A Pilot Study
This pilot study was conducted to explore the relationship between HIPA and cognitive outcome at hospital discharge in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery as a first step toward a longer-term study.

Comparison of Hollow-Fiber Membrane Oxygenators in Terms of Pressure Drop of the Membranes During Normothermic and Hypothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass in Neonates
The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of two hollow-fiber membrane oxygenators, the Capiox SX10 and the Lilliput 901, on pressure drop of the membranes during normothermic and hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in neonates.

Use of a Dynamic Bubble Trap in the Arterial Line Reduces Microbubbles During Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Microembolic Signals in the Middle Cerebral Artery
This study demonstrates that the insertion of a dynamic bubble trap (DBT) into the curcuit reduces microbubbles in the arterial line and microembolic signals (MES) in the middle cerebral arteries (MCAs).
