Comparative study of pulsatile and nonpulsatile flow during cardio-pulmonary bypass.
The use of nonpulsatile flow during extracorporeal circulation remains popular despite theoretical advantages of pulsatile cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Pulsatile CPB is considered to be more physiological than nonpulsatile flow as the pulsatile energy ensures the patency of the vascular bed and mechanical motion of tissue fluid around the cell membrane, improves microcirculation and enhances d...
متن کاملExperimental study of air bubbles in a simulated cardio-pulmonary bypass system with flow constriction.
An experimental study is performed to examine the breaking of an air bubble in the Row passage of a simulated cardiopulmonary bypass system by means of a flow constriction. The purpose of the study is to discover a geometry of the flow constriction which is efficient in breaking air bubbles while providing the least resistance to the flow of blood. i.e. to develop a new device for the oxygenati...
متن کاملPulmonary capillaries are recruited during pulsatile flow.
Capillaries recruit when pulmonary arterial pressure rises. The duration of increased pressure imposed in such experiments is usually on the order of minutes, although recent work shows that the recruitment response can occur in <4 s. In the present study, we investigate whether the brief pressure rise during cardiac systole can also cause recruitment and whether the recruitment is maintained d...
متن کاملAcute mesenteric ischemia after cardio-pulmonary bypass surgery.
Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is a highly-lethal surgical emergency. Several pathophysiologic events (arterial obstruction, venous thrombosis and diffuse vasospasm) lead to a sudden decrease in mesenteric blood flow. Ischemia/reperfusion syndrome of the intestine is responsible for systemic abnormalities, leading to multi-organ failure and death. Early diagnosis is difficult because the clini...
متن کاملPulsatile Flow During Cardiopulmonary Bypass: Is it Beneficial?
____________ _ (}. Extra-Corpor. Techno/. 20[ 1]: p. 24-29, 60 references, Spring 1988) Pulsatile perfusion has been a topic of great controversy for many years. This paper reviews historical aspects of pulsatile perfusion, as well as current and conceptual aspects of pulsatile perfusion. The positive and negative points of pulsatile perfusion are discussed so the reader may draw conclusions in...
