Overview

Brief Summary

To study the effects of inhaled iNO on pulmonary vascular mechanics, right ventricular function, and right ventricular-vascular coupling in patients in the immediate cardiac surgery post-operative period

Eligibility Criteria

Ages
18 years to 65+ years (65+ Years, 18-64 Years)
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
No

Inclusion Criteria

  • Obtained informed consent
  • Age > 18 years
  • Under passive mechanical ventilation
  • Pre-operative FEVI ≥ 30%
  • Absence of hypovolemia: absence of ventricular "kissing" and / or superior vena cava collapsibility index < 20%
  • Stable spontaneous heart rythm
  • Post-operative hemodynamic stability

Exclusion Criteria

  • Cor pulmonale or presence of preoperative pulmonary vascular pathology
  • Chronic pulmonary hypertension (mPAP> 35 mmHg) related to advanced COPD or chronic thromboembolic disease
  • Surgery involving the tricuspid or pulmonary valves
  • Intra- or post-operative use of nitroprusside or nitroglycerine
  • Pre-operative dependence of inotropic drugs or vasoconstrictors
  • Use of levosimendan. If dobutamine is in use, patients can be included provided the infusion can be stopped or is ≤ 1 µg/kg/min
  • Pacemaker dependency

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Parameters of right ventricular function

Parameters of right ventricular function

Secondary Outcomes
