CBP
Cardiopulmonary bypass (CBP) is a technique that temporarily takes over the function of the heart and lungs during surgery. It is best known for enabling complex cardiac procedures by diverting blood through a heart-lung machine that oxygenates and circulates it, allowing surgeons to operate on a still heart and has driven decades of advances in safety and pediatric cardiac care. It remains central to modern cardiac surgery and is the subject of ongoing discussions about reducing complications, improving outcomes, and exploring alternatives and refinements in perioperative care.
