Cardioplegia Cannula.pptx

The Cardioplegia Cannulas are used to deliver cardioplegic solution to the entire myocardium of heart which results in Asystole. Retrograde Cardioplegia
Antegrade Cardioplegia
Aortic Root Cannula
Coronary Perfusion Cannula
are the types of cardioplegic cannula. This PPT describes details about cardioplegic cannulas in simplified format.

3. Types of Cardioplegia Cannula : Retrograde Cardioplegia Antegrade Cardioplegia Aortic Root Cannula Coronary Perfusion Cannula

4. RETROGRADE CARDIOPLEGIA It is the most common technique used to deliver cardioplegia to the heart via the Coronary Sinus in the reverse direction of normal blood flow (retrograde Perfusion) Cannula is placed into the coronary sinus via right atrium

5. Retrograde Cardioplegia Cannula contains balloon near the tip which prevents the back flow of cardioplegic into the right atrium RETROGRADE CARDIOPLEGIA

9. ANTEGRADE CARDIOPLEGIA Antegrade Cardioplegia was designed to deliver cardioplegia solution in the aortic root or directly into the coronary ostia in the normal direction of blood flow (Antegrade Perfusion)

10. Aortic Root Cannula Coronary Perfusion Cannula TYPES

11. AORTIC ROOT CANNULA Aortic root cannula used to infuse cardioplegia directly into the aortic root near the aortic valve It has short needle tip that is placed into the aorta The aortic valve and Aortic cross clamp prevents the back flow in either direction.

12. CORONARY PERFUSION CANNULA This Cannulas are placed in the coronary ostia which delivers cardioplegia directly into the coronary ostia These Cannulas come in various sizes and in different configurations These Cannulas are used when the aortic root is opened , Example : Aortic Valve Replacement
