In a 30-patient randomized pilot study, higher cardiac index combined with pulsatile bypass increased oxygen delivery and was associated with lower lactate. Small sample
This single-center retrospective study of 381 adult heart transplants found that prolonged oxygen extraction ratio, or O2ER, above 0.20 during cardiopulmonary bypass was linked
This narrative review presents a mini-compendium on Goal-Directed Perfusion (GDP), a physiology-based strategy for optimizing cardiopulmonary bypass. GDP integrates oxygen delivery, metabolic indicators, and
This study explores the efficacy of intraoperative Goal-Directed Perfusion (GDP) in reducing postoperative complications, ICU, and hospital stay durations in cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary
The goal-directed perfusion (GDP) strategy is increasingly adopted in cardiac surgery to maintain optimal perfusion, improving patient outcomes by serving as a quality control
