Within the realm of cardiothoracic surgery, quality is synonymous with technically excellent, safely conducted operative procedure followed by an uneventful patient recovery and follow-up. Critical to this process of clinical value creation is meticulous attention to all aspects of every step along the management continuum.

This chapter focuses on the role of biosurgicals as useful adjuncts to achieving the ultimate goal of uneventful cardiac procedure and thus set the patient,Äôs clinical course for optimal postoperative recovery and long-term well-being.
