Interventions

Group 1: transthoracic clamping, TC
In case of external cross-clamping a dedicated transthoracic clamp (Chitwood clamp) is passed through a further separate skin incision, usually through the 2nd or 3th intercostal space. The ascending
The IntraClude intra-aortic occlusion device is a triple-lumen, balloon-tipped 10.5 Fr catheter indicated for use in patients undergoing CPB. The IntraClude catheter is inserted through a side branch
