The minimal cardiopulmonary bypass (mini-CPB) circuit, a closed system with neither
cardiotomy suction nor an open venous reservoir and thus no air–blood interface, reportedly …

We compared the inflammatory response, hemodilution, and blood loss in patients who
underwent mini-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) or conventional CPB during coronary artery …

Objective: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is known to cause part of the systemic
inflammatory reaction after cardiac surgery that can be responsible for organ failure. A novel …

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a known mediator of systemic inflammatory response.
Extracorporeal circulations are undergoing continuous modifications and optimizations to …

PURPOSE: Inflammation and coagulation disturbances are common consequences of
cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Recently, miniaturized closed CPB circuits without …

BACKGROUND: Transient, subclinical myocardial, renal, intestinal, and hepatic tissue injury
and impaired homeostasis is detectable even in low-risk patients undergoing conventional …

Objective The aim of this study was to compare the early systemic inflammatory response of
the Resting Heart System (RHS; Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN USA), a miniaturized …

OBJECTIVES To reduce the complications associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB)
during cardiac surgery, many modifications have been made to conventional extracorporeal …

Background: In this study, we assessed clinical results by using a minimal extracorporeal
circuit (MECC) and compared it to a conventional cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) system in …

Cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) induces a whole body inflammatory
response that sometimes leads to postoperative organ dysfunction, and neutrophil activation …
