Extracorporeal Circulation and Optic Nerve Ultrasound: A Pilot Study [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is an extracorporeal circuit that provides surgical access to an immobile and bloodless area, allowing for technical and procedural advances in cardiothoracic surgery. CBP can alter the integrity of

Extracorporeal circulation models in small animals: beyond the limits of preclinical research [PDF]
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) use has remarkably increased in recent years. Although ECMO has become essential for patients with refractory cardiac and respiratory failure, extracorporeal circulation (ECC) is associated with significant ...

Prolonged Extracorporeal Circulation [PDF]
Interest in prolonged perfusions has increased pari passu with the possibility of treating the more complicated cardiac deformities. Prolonged perfusions may be of interest also in functional disturbances arising during operations using the heart-lung machine, since it may be difficult to discontinue the perfusion before cardiac function is again ...

The impact of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genetic polymorphisms in anticoagulant therapy management after cardiac surgery with extracorporeal circulation [PDF]
Extracorporeal circulation during cardiac surgery is characterized with increased risk for hypercoagulation because blood is exposed to foreign, nonendothelial cell surfaces.

Haematology and the extracorporeal circulation [PDF]
The experience gained in the investigation of 100 cases of cardiac surgery treated by use of extracorporeal circulation has shown that certain simple laboratory tests suffice to detect induced defects in the blood and to guide therapy. These tests have been devised to detect the level of circulating heparin during perfusion; the presence of residual ...

MANNITOL AND EXTRACORPOREAL CIRCULATION
SUMMARY An investigation of the effects of mannitol has been carried out to evaluate its routine use in open-heart surgery. An in vitro study suggested that increased osmolarity produced by the drug reduced mechanical hemolysis. This was not confirmed in a controlled clinical study when mannitol was used in the pump prime.
