Validation of Venous Cannulae Flow Ratings

Withdrawn before enrolling

Conditions studied: Cardiopulmonary Bypass

In brief

The purpose of this study is to characterize blood flow in the plastic tubing of a heart-lung bypass machine during heart surgery. Technical specifications provided by the manufacturer do not consider varying hemodynamic conditions such as temperature and hemoglobin levels which affect blood viscosity and ultimately blood flow to and from the patient during heart-lung bypass. The investigator wishes to perform a prospective study of the heart-lung bypass tubing in children that require heart-lung bypass during heart surgery.
