Schematic presentation of leukocyte-filtered cardioplegia/reperfusion circuit. (AF = arterial filter; AL = arterial line; BC = blood collection; BT = bubble trap; CA = cardioplegia line, HC = high concentration cardioplegic solution; HE = heat exchanger; LC = low concentration cardioplegic solution; LF = leukocyte filter; OX = oxygenator; PC = pump circuit; PS = pump; RL = recirculation line; VL = venous line; VR = venous reservoir.)
