Abstract

As obesity increases in prevalence, so will cases in which patients present at the boundaries of care. We report the support of a class III obese man, having a body mass index of 60.8 kg/m2 and in acute renal failure, with a single Trillium-coated Affinity NT Hollow Fiber oxygenator in cardiopulmonary bypass for an emergent aortic valve replacement secondary to infective endocarditis. A maximum oxygen delivery of 807.51 mL of oxygen per minute is reported for this oxygenator in this case report.
