Pulsatile flow and simple flow control method during weaning period in centrifugal pump: toward more expanded usage in open heart surgery.

abstract：:Pharmacologic agents and other non-protein-bound compounds smaller than 5,000 daltons have the potential to be removed by continuous arteriovenous hemofiltration (CAVH). A proposed method for estimating drug clearance by CAVH (ClCAVH) equates ultrafiltrate clearance to the product of the sieving coefficient and the av...
