Lipolysis generates platelet dysfunction after in vivo heparin administration [PDF]
Heparin, when administered to patients undergoing operations using cardiopulmonary bypass, induces plasma changes that gradually impair platelet macroaggregation, but heparinization of whole blood in vitro does not have this effect.

Association of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and anemia with acute kidney injury in neonates
BackgroundThe association of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) and anemia with postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in neonates with congenital heart disease (CHD) is still unclear.

Avoiding cardiopulmonary bypass in extracardiac cavopulmonary connection: Does it really matter? [PDF]
ObjectivesWe examined the effect of avoiding cardiopulmonary bypass on the early outcome variables after fenestrated extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection.MethodsBetween May 2001 and January 2009, 102 patients with univentricular heart physiology ...

Low serum sodium level during cardiopulmonary bypass predicts increased risk of postoperative stroke after coronary artery bypass graft surgery [PDF]
ObjectiveRapid decreases in serum sodium levels are associated with altered mental status, seizures, and coma. During cardiac surgery, serum sodium levels decrease rapidly when cardiopulmonary bypass is initiated because cardiopulmonary bypass causes ...

Hyperlactatemia during cardiopulmonary bypass: determinants and impact on postoperative outcome [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Hyperlactatemia during cardiopulmonary bypass is relatively frequent and is associated with an increased postoperative morbidity. The aim of this study was to determine which perfusion-related factors may be responsible for hyperlactatemia,

Optical verification and in-vitro characterization of two commercially available acoustic bubble counters for cardiopulmonary bypass systems [PDF]
Gaseous microemboli (GME) introduced during cardiac surgery are considered as a potential source of morbidity, which has driven the development of the first bubble counters. Two new generation bubble counters claim correct sizing and counting of GME. This in-vitro study aims to validate the accuracy of two bubble counters using monodisperse bubbles in ...

Deep hypothermic total circulatory arrest for internal carotid artery aneurysm extending into the cranium: experience from a developing country [PDF]
Cardiopulmonary bypass is commonplace for acquired and congenital cardiac procedures. It has also stretched to facilitate complicated non-cardiac operations.

Pulmonary injury after cardiopulmonary bypass: Beneficial effects of low-frequency mechanical ventilation [PDF]
ObjectivePulmonary dysfunction is a frequent postoperative complication after cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, and atelectasis is thought to be one of the main causes.
