Conditions

Three groups of 50 patients, scheduled for myocardial revascularization surgery with the use of cardiopulmonary bypass.

Interventions

During Cardiopulmonary bypass, shed blood is stored in a seperate suction device. If the stored blood is clinically important, it needs to be added to the circulation. A clinical evaluation of a filte
2. A standard filtered group
3. A group where the blood is of no clinical importance, so it can be wasted.

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All patients admitted for coronary artery bypass grafting surgery. A clinical consideration will be taken over the patient’s blood loss. If blood loss is low, it will be discarded. If blood loss is significant for patients blood balance, the volume will be added to the circulation. The filter used for filtration will contain a leuco-lipid filter or contain a standard filter.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. Repeated surgery; 2. Requirement for dialysis; 3. Urgencies; 4. Emergencies; 5. Previous major cerebro-vascular insults; 6. The use of intra aortic balloon pump.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Clinical evaluation of a filter for the removal of lipid particles and leukocytes from mediastinal suctioned blood during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Does filtration of the lipid particles reduce the inflammatory response to CPB? 2. Evaluation of the capacity of removing white blood cells from suction blood by cardiotomy filtration; 3. Research on possible adverse effects that the filter may have on blood rheology (increased haemolysis, drop in platelets, etc.); 4. Does the decrease of inflammatory response and a lower lipid micro emboli level have any clinical impact (in particular, the myocardial, pulmonary, renal and neurological functions are to be evaluated)?
