A Flowmeter Technique to Exclude Internal Mammary Artery Anastomosis Error in an Arrested Heart

The revision of an internal mammary artery graft anastomosis because of a technical error can be time-consuming and complicated and may lead to complications. Here, we describe the technical details and our early experience of using a standard transit-time flowmeter to exclude technical errors and f...
