The Wasserman 9-Panel Plot, often called a Nine-Panel Plot, is a standard layout for the graphical representation of data produced by a cardiopulmonary exercise test. [1] The layout was updated in 2012. The graphs give an overview of cardiovascular, ventilatory, and gas exchange parameters. [2]
March 2024) (Learn how and when to remove this message) ( Learn how and when to remove this message ) Extracorporeal life support ( ECLS ), is a set of extracorporeal modalities that can provide oxygenation , removal of carbon dioxide , and/or circulatory support , excluding cardiopulmonary bypass for cardiothoracic or vascular surgery .
CI can be detected using a cardiopulmonary exercise test. [1] People with CI have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease and early death. [1] There are different ways to define CI. One common threshold is not being able to reach 80% of age-predicted maximal heart rate (APMHR), which is said to be 220 – age.
A 2-day CPET is a cardiopulmonary exercise test given on two successive days to measure the effect of post-exertional malaise (PEM) on a patient's ability to exercise. [1] [2] PEM is a cardinal symptom of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome and is common in long COVID as well. [3]

Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) or heart-lung machine, also called the pump or CPB pump, is a machine that temporarily takes over the function of the heart and lungs during open-heart surgery by maintaining the circulation of blood and oxygen throughout the body. [1] As such it is an extracorporeal device. CPB is operated by a perfusionist. The ...
RAP is a blood conservation technique to decrease the priming volume of cardiopulmonary bypass and then reduce the level of the hemodilution. [1] To be more specific, some cardiopulmonary bypass circuit prime are replaced by autologous circulating blood at the beginning of bypass in both venous cannula and arterial cannula. [ 1 ]
