Brief summary
The ANZCPR group is a collaborative network of perfusion and interested researchers, who share the commitment to cooperation and collaboration in the pursuit of excellence in perfusion. The ANZCPR group are uniquely positioned to promote the establishment of a unique source of information for the Cardiac Surgical (Perfusion) community, and thus to meet the following vision and mission statements. Vision: Empower all Cardiac Surgery Team Members to improve the understanding and practice of cardiopulmonary bypass to improve cardiac surgical patient outcomes. Mission: Maintain and develop the Australian and New Zealand Collaborative Perfusion Registry for cardiac surgical procedures performed throughout Australia and New Zealand. Promote the reporting and understanding of the effect of cardiopulmonary bypass on patient outcomes through encouraging evidence based practices, quality assurance, quality improvement and research. The ANZCPR group (formally known as Perfusion Downunder Collaboration (PDUC)) has evolved from the successful Perfusion Downunder (PDU) organisation which was established in 2005. The objectives of PDU were summarised in their mission statement, “to promote original prospective research into the effects of perfusion management on patient outcomes and so validate perfusion practices and interventions throughout Australia and New Zealand". This is being achieved through a meeting of scientific rigour that engages a faculty of excellence with objectives that meet those of the mission statement. The long term objective is to grow perfusionist generated research initiatives, and to seek scientific based consensus on various perfusion strategies. An overriding objective is to foster networking both scientifically and personally within the perfusion profession. The ANZCPR collaboration is an associated entity with the PDU organisation which is sponsored by Cellplex Pty Ltd. The ANZCPR collaboration is governed by a clinical steering committee independent of the sponsor.
Interventions
Collection of non-identified data from all patients who receive Cardiac Surgery. Data sets include: 1. A demographic data set 2. A preoperative data set to allow appropriate risk stratification of patients 3. A procedural data set to define the surgical procedure(s) for each patient 4. A perfusion data set, designed to encompass as much detail related to the performance of cardiopulmonary bypass as is considered able to be collected in a sustainable and in an ongoing manner continuous variables flow, pressure, temperature); 5. A post-operative data set to allow appropriate outcome measurements to be reported 6. Electronic perfusion data from the heart-lung machine (HLM) data management system. Duration of Follow-up per patient is 30 days.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
All adult patients undergoing cardiac surgical procedures, with or without cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), will be registered in the database. A full data set will only be collected on patients who undergo surgical procedure with CPB.
