Cardiopulmonary Bypass, Congenital Heart Disease, Mechanical Ventilation Complication
Conditions
Brief summary
The study is about a protocol of protective mechanical ventilation during cardiopulmonary bypass used during cardiosurgery for the correction of congenital heart diseases, to evaluate what's the best for the lungs

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation of the damage of the air-blood membrane in a ventilation protocol and a non ventilation protocol during cardiopulmonary bypass | Baseline, and 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours after the surgery | It will be assed the plasma level of proteins which usually are absent in the plasma (surfactant protein A and B) that change as a damage of the air-blood membrane appears. |
