Custodiol versus blood cardioplegia in pediatric cardiac surgery: a randomized controlled trial
Background Blood-based cardioplegia is the standard myocardial protection strategy in pediatric cardiac surgery. Custadiol (histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate), an alternative, may have some advantages but is potentially less effective at myocardial ...

Custodiol-N versus custodiol: A prospective randomized double blind multicenter phase III trial [PDF]
HTK-Solution (Custodiol) is a well-established cardioplegic and organ preservation solution. We currently developed a novel HTK based solution Custodiol-N which includes iron chelators to reduce oxidative injury as well as L-arginine, to improve endothelial function.
