Abstract: | This review focuses on weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass, a very critical time for patients and anaesthetists and frequently requiring major therapeutic effort. Few novel strategies for weaning have been described recently. Most drugs or approaches described during the review period are already well established. Emphasis is placed on the importance of non-cardiac factors, and on the importance of diastolic ventricular function as opposed to systolic function. |
