Abstract
Some problems of cannulation of the ascending aorta are demonstrated. Improved perfusion of the aortic arch is subsequently shown with a metal cannula having a basket-shaped tip. The design of the tip breaks the perfusing jet into four weaker jets, thus preventing differential perfusion of an arch vessel.Keywords
