Objectives: A mini-cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit, consisting of a closed system with
neither cardiotomy suction nor a venous reservoir to prevent air-blood interface, is reported …

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 …

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 …

Background Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with conventional cardiopulmonary
bypass (CPB) induces systemic inflammation. Miniaturized CPB may attenuate systemic …

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 Miniaturized cardiopulmonary bypass (MCPB) is increasingly used in cardiac
surgery, because it can lower clinically significant complications such as systemic …

Objectives: Cardiopulmonary bypass causes systemic inflammatory response resulting in
organ failure and cerebral dysfunction. Mini-extracorporeal circulation systems including a …

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