Abstract Background Pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) using deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is the preferred treatment for chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Crystalloid priming solutions cause hemodilution..

Perfusfind S.L.

Abstract Studies into the mechanisms of cardiopulmonary bypass-associated acute lung injury have not presented breakthroughs for many years, resulting in the stagnation of management strategies and clinical medicine measures. This..

Abstract Introduction Standard “yes/no”' checklists fail to meet their purported goals of enhancing patient safety because they enable inattentive completion and complacency. The mere presence of a check mark is..

Abstract Background Despite sternum sparing and without cardiopulmonary bypass, the actual value of minimally invasive coronary surgery (MICS) is still debatable. This study aimed to compare the completeness of revascularization..

Abstract BACKGROUND:  Current blood pressure management strategies cannot accommodate large interindividual variations in cerebral autoregulation, which may result in inadvertent cerebral ischemia. A novel optical neuromonitoring device was developed to..
