Respiratory dysfunction after cardiac surgery: effects of avoiding cardiopulmonary bypass and the use of bilateral internal mammary arteries.
- Abstract:
-
BACKGROUND: The quantitative contribution of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) to respiratory dysfunction after cardiac surgery is not documented and the effect of the use of bilateral internal mammary artery (IMA) grafts is not clear. METHODS: One hundred and seventy-five patients undergoing CABG with (CPB, n=150) and without (NOCPB, n=25) CPB were studied.
