Introduction Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is essential for modern cardiac surgery, allowing complex repairs and reconstructions by diverting blood away from the heart and lungs. However, during this process, the heart's..

Perfusfind S.L.

Introduction: Cardiopulmonary bypass, a cornerstone of modern cardiac surgery, temporarily diverts blood away from the heart and lungs, allowing for surgical intervention in a controlled environment. During CPB, blood is..
