Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) can be single or multiple. The obstructed vessels are replaced or bypassed with the patient's own harvested veins or other grafting material if the patient's veins are poor.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The heat exchanger, which is incorporated in the CPB circuit, regulates the body temperature using water that is circulating through the exchanger.
