Abstract

Abordagem da valva do tronco pulmonar por desvio direito e uso de cânula bicaval: estudo experimental Approach of the pulmonary valve using right heart bypass and bicaval cannula: experimental study Abstract Objective: To reproduce the surgery for correction of pulmonary valve anomalies using right heart bypass and a new bicaval cuffed venous cannula for minimal access surgery.Methods: Fifteen Large-White pigs were used for this study. The standard technique model was established with the first five pigs, the experiment was done with nine animals by sternotomy, and one was submitted to a minimally invasive procedure, but has been excluded of the sample. Bicaval drainage by a single cannula was obtained through the internal jugular vein. The cuffs were inflated to increase blood flow to the machine.

“…Beani et al11 discuss the use of late pulmonary tomography assessment in management of ductus arteriosum in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia, but find that the procedure is without influence on outcome. Silva et al12 describe an experimental study on the use of a bicaval cannula for the approach of the pulmonary valve. Dinkhuysen et al13 reports on the conception and development of a new spiral blood pump…”
