CARDIOPLEGIA
Cardioplegia is intraoperative
CRISTALOIDE
Blood cardioplegia is obtained by mixing
cardioplegic crystalloid solution with the
patient's blood in a ratio that varies
between different institutions (ratios of
blood to crystalloid solution of 1: 1, 2: 1, 4:
1, 8: 1, and currently up to the use of only
hyperkalemic blood and calcium to
chelate).
SANGUINEA
Blood carries oxygen through
hemoglobin in red blood cells. In
addition, red blood cells contain
enzymatic activity to remove
oxygen-derived free radicals, which
have been shown to be important
(3).
