What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

This prospective study aims to compare the effects of minimal invasive extracorporeal circulation (MiECC) and conventional reservoir-based extracorporeal circulation techniques on cerebral perfusion in patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Although the adverse effects of cardiopulmonary bypass on cerebral perfusion and oxygenation are well recognized, the relationship between these effects and changes in intracranial pressure has not been fully elucidated. In this context, ultrasonographic measurement of optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD), a non-invasive surrogate marker of intracranial pressure, will be used in combination with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to enable a comprehensive assessment of cerebral perfusion and oxygenation. Between February 2026 and February 2027, a total of 70 ASA II-III patients scheduled for elective CABG surgery will
