Minimized Extracorporeal Circulation Is Associated with Reduced Plasma Levels of Free-Circulating Mitochondrial DNA Compared to Conventional Cardiopulmonary Bypass: A Secondary Analysis of an Exploratory, Prospective, Interventional Study
The use of minimized extracorporeal circulation (MiECC) during cardiac surgery is associated with a reduced inflammatory reaction compared to conventional cardiopulmonary bypass (cCPB). Since it is unknown if MiECC also reduces the amount of free-circulating mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), this study aim...
