Conditions

Microvascular Reactivity, Tissue Oxygen Saturation

Brief summary

The aim of this study is to compare 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 in a balanced electrolyte solution (Volulyte®) with modified fluid gelatin (Geloplasma®) as the priming solution for the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit. The microvascular reactivity and the effects on tissue (StO2) and cerebral (ScO2) oxygen saturation will be examined using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).

Interventions

During elective coronary artery bypass grafting surgery, patients need to be attached to a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit. Administration of Volulyte 6% to the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit.

DRUGGeloplasma

During elective coronary artery bypass grafting surgery, patients need to be attached to a cardiopulmonary bypass circuit. Administration of Geloplasma to the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit.
