Abstract

For many years, progress in cardiac surgery were limited by the inability to operate within the empty heart under direct vision. There have been several methods devised in the effort to obtain intracardiac exposure with a dry field. The early models of heart-lung machines developed were not widely applicable with safety to the human patient. The other avenue of approach has been the attempt to reduce the metabolic demand until circulation can be interrupted for periods of time long enough without recourse to extracorporeal pumps. General hypothermia has been investigated as a means of reducing the oxygen requirements of the body to allow deliberate and extensive intracardiac maneuvers.

I was taught that the way of progress was neither swift nor easy.

Marie Curie

I do not think that the practice of science can be separated from courage.
