Purpose: To investigate the effects of different conditions used during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) surgery on accompanying production of cytokine and nitric oxide (NO).
Methods: Patients undergoing CPB for the first time were prospectively enrolled and divided into two groups according to CPB parameters performed: i) normothermia (36.5-37 degrees C) with blood cardioplegia (NB group, n=10) and ii) hypothermia (29-31 degrees C) with crystalloid cardioplegia (HC group, n=10).
