N2 - Background: To evaluate the plasmatic changes of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) during and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in normothermia and hypothermia. Methods: Twenty-three patients (n=23) undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery were randomly assigned to two groups. In Group I (n=11), the patients underwent operation in normothermia; in Group II (n=12), the operation was performed in hypothermia (26°C). Results: Plasma ANF levels were determined after induction of anaesthesia, at the end of CPB and one hour postoperatively. There were no demographic differences between the two groups, diuresis (p=0.90) and natriuresis (p=0.95). Plasma levels of ANF were significantly elevated during and after CPB in both groups (p
