Hemodynamic Changes During Heart Displacement in Aorta No-Touch Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery: A Pilot Study
Objective: To evaluate the sequential changes of hemodynamic and metabolic parameters in
patients who underwent aorta no-touch off-pump coronary artery bypass
surgery (OPCAB).Methods: Prospective study involving twenty-seven consecutive patients who underwent
aorta no-touch OPCAB. The FloTrac/PreSep/Vigileo ™ system (Edwards
Lifesciences) was used to continuously record heart rate (HR), mean arterial
blood pressure (MABP), central venous pressure (CVP), continuous cardiac
index (FCI), stroke volume (SV), stroke volume variation (SVV), and central
venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2). The parameters were assessed 5
min befor ...
