Study Overview
Brief Summary
Comparison of right ventricular measurements by perioperative echocardiography as a predictor of hemodynamic instability in patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery. In this study baseline transthoracic echocardiographic measurements of right ventricular function will be taken before induction of anesthesia followed by transesophageal echocardiography measurements of the same after induction before sternotomy and after sternal closure will be recorded. Hemodynamic parameters and inotrope requirement will be recorded in the post operative period for 24 hours.
