Abstract Objectives: Cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass frequently provokes a systemic inflammatory response syndrome. This can lead to the development of low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS). Both of these can..

Abstract Introduction Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a common procedure to maintain body perfusion during cardiac surgery. It is associated with a systemic inflammatory response, hemostasis and circulatory dysfunction that can..

Abstract Microcirculatory disturbances are commonplace after cardiopulmonary bypass.  Postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) occurs in nearly 30% of patients undergoing conventional cardiac surgery.  Landiolol, a short-acting i.v. beta blocker, could reduce..
