Why the study?
Does cardiopulmonary bypass and catecholamine administration alter left ventricular diastolic function in patients undergoing CABG?
Does cardiopulmonary bypass and catecholamine administration alter left ventricular diastolic function in patients undergoing CABG?
In patients undergoing CABG, catecholamine use immediately after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass improves systolic function but does not improve left ventricular diastolic function.
Post-CPB catecholamines were associated with higher cardiac index but unchanged E/A in CABG; leaves open whether diastolic function needs targeted therapy.
