Study Summary
The purpose of this study is to compare brain function after surgical circulatory arrest using either antegrade perfusion or retrograde perfusion.
Primary Outcome
The MoCA is a brief screening tool used to assess cognitive function. It consists of 30 tasks covering various cognitive domains, including attention, memory, visuospatial abilities, and executive function. The total score ranges from 0 to 30, where a higher score indicates better cognitive function.
