Explanation:

Both experimental [l-31 and clinical [4, 51 studies have documented the
ability of retrograde cardioplegia to achieve adequate myocardial preservation
during elective ischemic arrest.

When solution is introduced into the aortic root (with an aortic cross-clamp on the distal aorta to limit systemic circulation), this is called antegrade cardioplegia. When introduced into the coronary sinus, it is called retrograde cardioplegia
