Abstract：Objective To evaluate the difference between femoral and radial artery pressure associated with cardiopulmonary by-pass (CPB). Methods The pressure of femoral and radial artery, cardiac output, systemic vascular resistance index, centre vein pres-sure in 50 patients were monitored during heart operation with CPB at different time points. Results There was no statistically difference between the femoral and radial aretery pressure before CPB, but at the early time after CPB, the radial artery pressure was lower than femoral artery pressure over 10 mmHg in 7 patients. Conclusion During the early time after CPB, the radial artery pressure maybe de-value the centre pressure in some patients, and at this time, the femoral artery pressure can reflect the centre pressure more accurately.
