We present a technique for administering cold cardioplegia that permits the pump technician to conveniently give the fluid. The method is comparable to that used in providing coronary perfusion for aortic valve procedures because it allows controlled volume flow and perfusion pressure. In addition, the technique is inherently safe from infusion of air bubbles.
