Abstract Objective Hemolysis is a complication in surgical procedures requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The primary aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the point-of-care device Hemcheck Helge..
Read MoreAbstract Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication among patients requiring cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during paediatric cardiac surgery. Plasma-free haemoglobin (PFH) produced by haemolysis during CPB contributes to..
Read MoreAbstract Purpose: Red-colored urine often occurs in patients in the perioperative period who undergo cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). This urine color change has been utilized for approximating hemolysis..
Read MoreAbstract Introduction Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)–associated hemolysis still represents a serious complication. The present study aimed to investigate those predictive factors, such as flow rates, the use of anticoagulants, and..
Read MoreAbstract Background: Although conventional cardiopulmonary bypass (cCPB) is still the most widely used method in open heart surgery, methods such as retrograde autologous priming (RAP) are increasingly popular in terms..
Read MoreAbstract Objective is a common and severe complication during (ECMO). Increased plasma free hemoglobin (PFHb) is related to renal injury. The aim of this study was to investigate whether increased PFHb..
Read MoreAbstract Background: The major source of hemolysis during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remains the cardiotomy suction.1 Previous research has shown that the combination of negative pressures and the massive air-blood interface exponentially..
