- ItemPlasma levels of potassium and magnessium after modified ultrafiltration in pediatric cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass(SAGE PUBLICATIONS LTD, 2012) Lopez, R.; Lema, G.; Gonzalez, A.; Carvajal, C.; Canessa, R.; Carrasco, P.; Lazo, V.; Hudson, C.; Gonzalez, R.; Frangini, P.Objective: Modified ultrafiltration (MUF) reduces some of the complications associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in pediatric cardiac surgery. However, we have observed hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia in children when MUF is used. Such alterations may elicit severe arrhythmias in the postoperative period. To date, no studies have focused on the effects MUF may have in plasma levels of potassium (K) and magnesium (Mg). The objective of our study was to determine if there is any variation in plasma levels of K (plK) and Mg (plMg) after MUF in children undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB.
