Tubing clamps designed for the automated compression of the arterial line during cardiovascular perfusion procedures. These clamps usually consist of a mechanism that atraumatically compress the aortic line when level, bubble, or retrograde conditions are detected; the mechanism may be also operated manually from a remote panel. Remote-controlled vascular perfusion clamps are typically associated to an external perfusion pump; they are used during cardiopulmonary bypass procedures to improve the safety of the perfusion procedures.
