PY - 2016 T2 - Anesthesiology Core Review: Part Two Advanced Exam AB - Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is a form of extracorporeal circulation that diverts the patient’s blood from the heart and lungs, rerouting it, and assuming control of the normal physiological functions of the heart and lungs, including maintaining whole body blood perfusion pressure, oxygenation, and CO2 elimination during cardiovascular and thoracic surgery. CPB allows surgeons to operate on a nonbeating heart in the setting of a bloodless field while maintaining adequate whole body tissue oxygenation and perfusion.
