NCT04177225

Brief Summary

This investigator initiated, prospective, observational, single-center study is designed to assess whether dynamic monitors of cardiac function such as stroke volume variation (SVV) that have been shown to predict volume responsiveness differ in clinical utility between patients with and without diastolic dysfunction.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Impact of diastolic function on the response threshold for stroke volume variation (SVV) as a predictor of the cardiac output response to fluid administration.

    The sensitivity of SVV as a predictor of the change in cardiac output in response to IV fluid administration will be determined by analysis of the Receiver Operator Characteristic (ROC) curves for each of the patient groups as distinguished by their pre-induction assessment of diastolic left ventricular function

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Grade assessment of diastolic function

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year

Study Arms (2)

Patients with normal diastolic function

Patients undergoing scheduled surgical procedures requiring general anesthesia and invasive arterial pressure and advanced cardiac function monitoring. A trans thoracic ultrasound examination of cardiac function will be performed before induction of general anesthesia . In the operating room, the anesthesia care team will place all of the standard intra-operative monitors and then induce general anesthesia. After induction, the ultrasound examination will be repeated and the planned additional intra-operative monitors will be placed. The arterial catheter will be attached to a FloTrac/EV1000 monitor that will be used to guide fluid management during the procedure. The sensitivity and specificity of SVV to predict the response of cardiac output to intravenous fluid administration will be assessed in this patient group distinguished by their normal left ventricular diastolic function.

Procedure: Trans thoracic Ultrasound ExaminationOther: Intravenous fluid administration

Patients with abnormal diastolic function

Patients undergoing scheduled surgical procedures requiring general anesthesia and invasive arterial pressure and advanced cardiac function monitoring. A trans thoracic ultrasound examination of cardiac function will be performed before induction of general anesthesia . In the operating room, the anesthesia care team will place all of the standard intra-operative monitors and then induce general anesthesia. After induction, the ultrasound examination will be repeated and the planned additional intra-operative monitors will be placed. The arterial catheter will be attached to a FloTrac/EV1000 monitor that will be used to guide fluid management during the procedure. The sensitivity and specificity of SVV to predict the response of cardiac output to intravenous fluid administration will be assessed in this patient group distinguished by their abnormal left ventricular diastolic function.

Procedure: Trans thoracic Ultrasound ExaminationOther: Intravenous fluid administration

Interventions
