The influence of cannulation technique on blood flow to the brain in rats undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass: a cautionary "tail".

abstract：:Cardiac monitoring of ventricular assist devices (VADs) is important for detecting heart failure risks, such as critical arrhythmia and ventricular fibrillation, and for supplying data that are useful for hemodynamic control. Specifically, impedance cardiograms (ICGs) are especially beneficial because they have no eff...
