Abstract
Neuropsychological disorders and brain injury are still a serious problem in cardiac surgery patients. Owing to multifactorial mechanism of brain injury during extracorporeal circulation, the effective and safe protection is extremely difficult. Despite several studies, the ideal neuroprotective treatment has not been found. Based on literature we analysed the main mechanisms of brain injury and new methods of brain protection.
