Abstract

Often, after cardiopulmonary bypass involving aortic dissection, aortic root replacements, or valve conduits, rapid volume replacement with blood products is essential to obtain hemostasis and patient survival. We describe a method of using cardiopulmonary bypass equipment for rapid warm volume replacement and infusion of remaining residual volume in the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit after a cardiac operation.
