Official Title: Comparative Analysis Between Ringer's Lactate vs Acetate Containing Balanced Crystalloid Solution (Plasma Lyte-A) as Cardiopulmonary Bypass Prime

Brief Summary: Metabolic acidosis is a frequent problem in cardiopulmonary bypass. The cause is poorly understood, but it appears to be multifactorial. It is assumed to be result of hypoperfusion with resultant lactatemia. And other theories include bicarbonate dilution to excessive proton activity and diluting fluid.The main three contributors for the development of metabolic acidosis are stress of anaesthesia, surgery and Cardio Pulmonary Bypass(CPB) prime.Even after research discussion and debate, there is no agreement upon ideal prime.The literature is extensive, comparing different types of colloids, colloids versus crystalloids, synthetic versus organic, and inclusion of numerous additions in an attempt to make a grossly unphysiological state the least disruptive to the body as possible
