Abstract

Pulmonary dysfunctions resulting in postoperative hypoxaemia is a common complication of cardiac surgery. The disease is challenging as it lacks predictive biomarkers. Since a comprehensive metabolic overview of lung microvasculature injury is lacking, we have compared the metabolome of patients undergoing cardiac surgery from blood collected on the first postoperative day from the pulmonary artery and left atrium.
