Fig 1 Activated clotting time (ACT, mean ± standard deviation). Closed circles indicate the high-dose (H) group and open circles the low-dose (L) group. Samples were obtained at the following time points: before induction of anesthesia (Bef); 5 minutes after heparin administration (Hep); 10, 60, and 90 minutes after the initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass (10m, 60m, and 90m); 5 minutes after protamine administration (Pro); and 1, 3, 6, 12, and 24 hours after the termination of cardiopulmonary bypass (1h, 3h, 6h, 12h, and 24h). Significant differences between the two groups were observed during systemic heparinization (∗p < 0.01 versus the low-dose group.)
