The heart-lung bypass process primarily affects:

body temperature, blood temperature, oxygenation, and heart rhythm

During the procedure, the heart-lung machine takes over the functions of the heart and lungs, affecting circulation, oxygenation of the blood, and can also influence body temperature. It does not directly influence liver function or digestion.
