Objective: Pulsatile flow, generated by a pump during cardiopulmonary bypass, has been accepted as more physiological in coronary arterybypass grafting surgery (CABG). Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effects of pulsatile and nonpulsatile flow on postoperative cognitive function and to review relationship with the biomarkers S100 beta and neuron-specific enolase (NSE).
