Text: Conventional extracorporeal circulation exhibited the highest intraoperative activation of coagulation (thrombin-antithrombin complex : extracorporeal circulation, 31. 1 + / - 15. 8 microg/L ; uncoated extracorporeal circulation with shed blood separation, 15. 3 + / - 7. 8 microg/L ; coated extracorporeal circulation with shed blood separation, 8. 1 + / - 4. 8 microg/L ; no extracorporeal circulation, 2. 4 + / - 0. 6 microg/L ; P <. 05 extracorporeal circulation vs all others) and red blood cell damage (free Hb : extracorporeal circulation, 16. 8 + / - 11. 4 micromol/L ; uncoated extracorporeal circulation with shed blood separation, 10. 3 + / - 3. 5 micromol/L ; coated extracorporeal circulation with shed blood separation, 6. 8 + / - 2. 9 micromol/L ; no extracorporeal circulation, 3. 4 + / - 1. 1 micromol/L ; P <. 05 extracorporeal circulation vs no extracorporeal circulation, coated extracorporeal circulation with shed blood separation).
