Maintenance of normothermia during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) may have advantages over hypothermia but there is a potential increased hazard of neurological injury. A novel aortic cannula (Cobra catheter, Cardeon Corp., Cupertino, CA, USA) which compartmentalises the aorta may allow simultaneous brain cooling during maintained corporeal normothermia. We investigated the thermal efficacy of this technique.
