Normothermic bypass linked to earlier awakening with similar SVR; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Does normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass improve early haemodynamic adaptation compared to hypothermic bypass in patients undergoing aorto-coronary bypass surgery?
Normothermic cardiopulmonary bypass during aorto-coronary bypass surgery results in similar haemodynamics but earlier wake-up times compared to hypothermic bypass, suggesting potential for earlier extubation.
