Summary

The aim of this study is to compare retrograde autologous priming (RAP) of the bypass circuit to cell salvage (CS) as part of blood conservation strategies in adult cardiac surgery. It hypothesizes that RAP is at least as effective as cell salvage in terms of blood conservation but at the same time more cost effective.
