"Cardioplegic solution" or "cardioplegia" refers to a specialized solution used during cardiac surgery to temporarily stop the heart's activity and protect the heart from damage while a surgical procedure is being performed. The cardioplegic solution can be infused into a heart's coronary arteries to induce controlled cardiac arrest, allowing a medical person to work on the heart in a bloodless and motionless state.(© ChatGPT Aug. 3 Version, Modified, accessed chat.openai.com/chat Aug. 31, 2023).
