Question 3

Unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion flow measurements

Answer 3

The innominate artery was occluded at the initiation of the lower body circulatory arrest period.

Unilateral selective antegrade cerebral perfusion was initiated at 16°C-18°C at 10 mL/kg/min.

Flow was adjusted to maintain a cerebral perfusion pressure of 60-70 mm Hg, which was measured off a side port from the axillary cannula.
