Resumo

In order to quantitate particulate microembolism during cardiac operations, particles 13 to 80 p in size were measured, with a particle size analyzer, in the blood of patients before and during cardiopulmonary bypass.Venous particle measurements did not change.The volume of particles in arterial blood drawn from the bubble oxygenator (41.3 2 4.4 x 103 p33/mmP, mean +SE) was greater than that in venous blood (30.7 f 4.1 x lo3 ~3 / m r n .~,
