“…5,11,33,34 However, the cooling of the blood itself introduced some problems, such as the increase of blood viscosity13 and the blood cell sludging,' which induced the high gradient of temperature between core organs and peripheral tissues.…”

“…The Drew technique (Drew and Anderson, 1959) of inducing profound hypothermia would therefore seem too complicated and the left atrial cannulation particularly difficult. Moreover, as in Case 1, it may be thought desirable in a bad-risk patient to establish partial bypass before opening the chest, and this inevitably entails the use of an oxygenator.…”

“…Both survived. 40 Profound hypothermia was a good technique in 1958 when many early oxygenators were unreliable and when operating on congenital heart disease with a competent aortic valve. It was less useful in acquired heart disease with even slight aortic regurgitation and the time limitation of one hour gave inadequate time inside the heart in complex procedures.…”
