Exclusion Criteria
Patient declines, age less than 18 years, age greater than 75 years, creatinine concentration greater than 150 micromoles/L, diabetes mellitus, anaemia (hemoglobin level <100g/L), pre-existing acid-base abnormalities, and extremes in weight (body weight <50kg or >100kg.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 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
Name Time Method 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.[]
