This study focuses on developing and validating a checklist for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to enhance patient safety and reduce adverse events. Using the Delphi
This review examines microvascular dysfunction following cardioplegic arrest and cardiopulmonary bypass (CP/CPB), with a focus on diabetes and hypertension. It explores endothelial and vasomotor
This study examines the effect of a protamine test dose (PTD) on activated clotting times (ACTs) and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit integrity in 120
This study evaluates the role of continuous monitoring of venous drainage flow and oxygen extraction (ERiO2) using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in cerebral perfusion during
This study compares centrifugation (CF) and multiple-pass hemoconcentration (MPH) for salvaging residual blood after cardiopulmonary bypass. A randomized trial with 61 patients found that
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the Huaxi-1 blood-based cardioplegia solution compared to the widely used HTK solution in cardiopulmonary bypass surgery.
This study examines different techniques for processing post-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) residual blood and their impact on intraoperative red blood cell (RBC) transfusions. Analyzing data
This study investigates whether on-pump FIBTEM-A5 values measured during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) accurately predict post-protamine administration values. Conducted at a single cardiac center, the
The 2024 EACTS/EACTAIC/EBCP guidelines provide updated, evidence-based recommendations for cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in adult cardiac surgery. They cover advancements in perfusion strategies, organ protection,
This randomized clinical trial examined whether nitric oxide (NO) administered during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) improves neurodevelopmental and health-related quality of life (HRQOL) outcomes in
This study analyzes the impact of preoperative withdrawal of P2Y12 receptor inhibitors on bleeding and ischemic outcomes in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Using
This study investigates the impact of oxygen delivery (DO2) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) on major clinical outcomes in cardiac surgery patients. Maintaining adequate DO2
