Normal <strong>com</strong>ponents are set up in the standard fashion<br />

The overriding concern is the elimination of areas of<br />

Either an open system or a closed system may be used<br />

Retrograde autologous priming may be used as long as<br />

initiation of bypass is within minutes<br />

Keep level in venous reservoir around 1000 to 1200<br />
