This study aims to investigate the relationship between the ratio of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) time to cross-clamp (CC) time and postoperative complications in open heart surgery. While CPB time and CC duration have been linked to complications, no study has explored the specific ratio between CPB time and CC time in relation to postoperative outcomes. This prospective study seeks to fill that gap.
