Key result
Heartport endovascular CPB system enables same-day extubation with an average 7-day stay.
Why the study?
Anesthetic management experience for minimally invasive cardiac surgery using an endovascular cardiopulmonary bypass system was reported to address procedural challenges and potential benefits.

Igarashi et al. (1999) conducted a case report in Cardiac surgery (Mitral valve replacement and coronary artery bypass grafting) (n=4). Heartport System (endovascular cardiopulmonary bypass) was evaluated. Minimally invasive cardiac surgery using the Heartport endovascular cardiopulmonary bypass system was feasible, allowing for same-day extubation and an average hospital stay of 7 days, though it required longer preparation time.
