abstract：BACKGROUND:The degree of protection provided to the right ventricle during retrograde continuous normothermic blood cardioplegia (RCNBC) remains controversial. The purpose of this study was to determine whether RCNBC is able to provide "adequate" nutritive flow to both ventricles to prevent ischemic metabolism in norma...
