Key result
The Terumo Capiox centrifugal pump demonstrated less hemolysis, less platelet depletion, and significantly lower serum beta-thromboglobulin levels compared to a roller pump during CABG.
Why the study?
Does the Terumo Capiox centrifugal pump reduce blood trauma compared to a roller pump in patients undergoing elective CABG?

Does the Terumo Capiox centrifugal pump reduce blood trauma compared to a roller pump in patients undergoing elective CABG?
The Terumo Capiox centrifugal pump demonstrates excellent hemodynamic performance with reduced blood trauma compared to a roller pump during cardiopulmonary bypass for open heart surgery.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May not yet change pump selection in CABG; leaves open confirmation of clinical benefit in randomized trials.
Nishida et al. (1993) conducted a cohort in elective coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Terumo Capiox centrifugal pump (CXP) vs. Roller pump (RP) was evaluated on Free plasma hemoglobin level, platelet count, and serum beta-thromboglobulin (beta-TG) level. The Terumo Capiox centrifugal pump demonstrated less hemolysis, less platelet depletion, and significantly lower serum beta-thromboglobulin levels compared to a roller pump during CABG.
