In neonatal and infant cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), hemodilution with reduction of plasma albumin concentration and low colloid oncotic pressure (COP) are the main factors associated with tissue edema and postoperative weight gain. The aim of our study was to evaluate the influence of two different COP regulatory strategies on post-bypass body weight gain, fluid balance, and clinical outcomes.
