Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Volume of IV fluid administered until extubation, which will be collected from bedside chart recording (hourly fluid input and cumulative total routinely recorded)[At time of extubation post-cardiac surgery]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
rine output<br>Collected from bedside chart (hourly urine output routinely recorded and cumulatively totaled)[Day 0, Day 1 and Day 2 post-operatively];Plasma creatinine level[Day 1 and Day 2 post-op];Peak inotrope requirement (eg Adrenaline infusion, mcg/min)<br>Collected from bedside chart (routinely recorded)[From time of admission to time of extubation];Time to extubation<br>-Collected from time of admission to time of extubation, which are both routinely recorded on the bedside chart[From time of admission to time of extubation (both routinely recorded on bedside charts)];Peak vasopressor requirement (eg Noradrenaline infusion, mcg/min)<br>Collected from bedside chart (routinely recorded)[Over admission, from time of admission until time of extubation]
