Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The base-excess will be measured in arterial blood sampled before bypass and then 2, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes after initiating bypass; and then 5 minutes after ceasing bypass and on arrival in Intensive Care. The difference between the grand means of base-excess will be compared between the Ringer's Injection and Hartmann's groups.[]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Plasma electrolyte levels will be measured in arterial blood sampled before bypass and then 2, 5, 10, 15 and 30 minutes after initiating bypass; and then 5 minutes after ceasing bypass and on arrival in Intensive Care. The difference between the grand means of the electrolytes will be compared between the Ringer's Injection and Hartmann's groups.[]
