NCT01616069

Brief Summary

This is a double blind randomization study, assessing hemodynamic response in patients who underwent a cardiopulmonary bypass graft (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) using intraoperative trasnesophageal echocardiography (TEE) to know what inotropic drug will be batter to improve the heart function. Epinephrine, milrinone, dobutamine and levosimendan will be assessment.
