AI Article Synopsis
- Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in pediatric cardiac surgery can lead to serious issues like blood dilution, clotting problems, and increased inflammation.
- Intra-operative ultrafiltration has been a long-standing method to help reduce these negative effects during surgery.
- The new technique called Subzero Balance Simple Modified Ultrafiltration (SBUF-SMUF) combines two types of ultrafiltration to improve recovery outcomes for infants and children undergoing these surgeries.
Article Abstract
The use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) can be associated with significant hemodilution, coagulopathy and a systemic inflammatory response for infants and children undergoing cardiac surgery. Intra-operative ultrafiltration has been used for decades to ameliorate these harmful effects. The novel combination of a continuous and non-continuous form of ultrafiltration, Subzero Balance Simple Modified Ultrafiltration (SBUF-SMUF) here described, seeks to enhance recovery from pediatric cardiac surgery and CPB.
