Infant heart lung bypass machine
Hi, at our local cardiac hospital they only have an adult heart lung bypass machine and children whose parents do not want blood administered are told all they can do is change the tubes to smaller ones. In 18yrs I do not know of one child to come through open heart without a blood transfusion. What i need to know, is articles and info on the benefits for having an infant heart lung bypass used on all children, not just those who choose to have no blood. The reason for this is that there is a strong possibility I might be able to procure the funds to purchase one for the hospital but I need to be able to put a good case forward in that it will benefit ALL. Thanks
