The blood spurting from the ascending aorta is uncomfortable for cardiac surgeons. To protect the surgeons' faces from this spurting blood, we use a longitudinal half of a plastic bottle, which is semi see-through. While the assistant is holding this device above the ascending aorta, the surgeons can proceed the operation with good surgical view.
