Introduction: The intracavitary electrocardiographic method is recommended for assessing the location of tip central venous catheter when there an identifiable P wave. Previous reports suggested that might also be applied to patients with atrial fibrillation, considering so-called f waves as a surrogate Methods: We studied 18 fibrillation requiring simultaneously and trans-esophageal echocardiography. An trace was recorded in three different positions defined by echocardiography imaging:...
BACKGROUND: Recent meta-analyses failed to support the reliability of ultrasound assessment inferior vena cava (IVC) predict fluid responsiveness.However, techniques utilized were heterogeneous.We hypothesized that variability elliptic section and caliber IVC along its course may influence evaluation.Therefore, we investigated size shape at four levels, before after a challenge.METHODS: Twenty mechanically-ventilated adult patients who received challenge cardiac surgery enrolled.They...
The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) gap is the difference between pCO2 values in arterial and mixed venous blood; higher than six mmHg may be predictive tissue hypoperfusion. It still doubtful if central blood can used to assess gap. This study was aimed compare obtained with collected from superior vena cava pulmonary artery.Data were a previous study. In 30 patients who underwent on-pump myocardial revascularization, samples radial artery, eight times perioperative period....
Dynamic obstruction of right ventricle outflow tract (RVOTO) is a rare condition that may acutely cause severe heart failure. It has been reported in some hypertrophic cardiomyopathies, after lung transplantation, and cases hemodynamic instability cardiopulmonary bypass. We report the case 71-year-old man who developed hypotension during induction general anesthesia for surgical coronary revascularization. Hypotension did not respond to initial treatment with vasoconstrictors fluids. RVOTO...
