Right Ventricular Dysfunction in Cardiac Surgery Patients
- Conditions
- Right Ventricular Dysfunction
- Interventions
- Other: echocardiographic measurements
- Registration Number
- NCT03183414
- Lead Sponsor
- Medical Centre Leeuwarden
- Brief Summary
To establish the correlation between echocardiographic parameters of the RV, measured with TEE and the right ventricular ejection fraction (thermodilution). To identify a time in the perioperative process when RV dysfunction occurs.
- Detailed Description
Measurements with echocardiography were done during cardiac surgery to observe the right ventricular dysfunction in the perioperative process
