Effect of Peri-Operative Red Blood Cell Transfusion on 30-Day and 1-Year Mortality Following Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of peri-operative red blood cell (RBC) transfusion on 30-day and 1-year mortality following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).
Left Ventricular Function and Chronotropic Responses After Normothermic Cardiopulmonary Bypass With Intermittent Antegrade Warm Blood Cardioplegia in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting
Recent studies indicate that normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with intermittent antegrade warm blood cardioplegia (IAWBC) may have metabolic and clinical advantages, but limited data exist on its effects on myocardial function.

Left Ventricular Diastolic Function Similar After On-Pump and Off-Pump CABG
Left ventricular (LV) diastolic function improvement after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) is similar regardless of whether the patient undergoes surgery on-pump or off-pump, according to a report in the March 1st issue of The American Journal of Cardiology.

Comparison of Pulsatile With Nonpulsatile Mechanical Support in a Porcine Model of Profound Cardiogenic Shock
The aim of this study was to examine whether pulsatility by intraaortic balloon counterpulsation (IABP) is an important adjunct to the treatment of profound cardiogenic shock (CS) with a widely used, nonpulsatile centrifugal pump (CP).
