PURPOSE: A human cadaveric model combining standard lung protective mechanical ventilation and modified cardiac bypass techniques was developed to allow investigation into automated modes of detection of venous air emboli (VAE) prior to in vivo human or animal investigations.
METHODS: In this study, in order to create an artificial cardiopulmonary circuit in a cadaver that could mimic VAE physiology, the direction of flow was reversed from conventional cardiac bypass. Normal saline was circulated in isolation through the heart and lungs as opposed to the peripheral organs by placing the venous cannula into the aorta and the arterial cannula into the inferior vena cava with selective ligation of other vessels.
RESULTS: Mechanical ventilation and this reversed cardiac bypass scheme allowed preliminary detection of VAE independently but not in concert in our current simulation scheme due to pulmonary edema in the cadaver. A limited dissection approach was used initially followed by a radical exposure of the great vessels, and both proved feasible in terms of air signal detection. We used electrical impendence as a preliminary tool to validate detection in this cadaveric model however we theorize that it would work for echocardiographic, intravenous ultrasound or other novel modalities as well.
CONCLUSION: A cadaveric model allows monitoring technology development with reduced use of animal and conventional human testing.
