Real-time blood gas management: evaluating quantum perfusion system’s accuracy against a standard blood gas analysis in CPB

Abstract Background Continuous blood gas monitoring (CBGM) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is essential for maintaining optimal patient outcomes, enabling rapid responses to critical fluctuations in blood gas parameters. This non-inferiority..
