 Abstract

Hypothermic coronary perfusion lengthens the safe duration of anoxic arrest. Intermittent selective hypothermic coronary perfusion provides extended myocardial protection. We describe a method of achieving profound myocardial hypothermia by selective deep hypothermic coronary perfusion using a cooling coil without a separate pump head.
