Endotoxins in cardiopulmonary bypass
Endotoxins are biologically active substances derived from the cell wall of degraded gram-negative bacteria. Since sterile water may also contain large amounts of endotoxins, these are easily introduced into the manufacturing processes of technical medical material, such as the extracorporeal components used in cardiopulmonary bypass.

ABSTRACT Purpose Congenital heart disease affects 1% of US births, with some infants requiring cardiothoracic surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Optimal surgical parameters to minimize neuronal injury are unknown. We used serial 1H MRS in a neonatal CPB porcine model to assess acute neuronal damage and associated injury mechanisms.
