Summary

The aim of this study is to measure TAPSE in TEE using two deep transgastric views. This is a prospective comparative diagnostic study where 21 CABG patients who are enrolled for the study will be studied during the intraoperative period. The choice of general anaesthesia, hemodynamic management will be at the discretion of the anaesthesiologist in charge of the patient. The monitoring technique is standard as per any cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. After induction of anaesthesia, TEE probe will be inserted by the PI or the Co-Investigator and the required TEE standard views and deep TG view of the right heart at zero degree and Deep TG view at 100-150 degrees will be acquired TAPSE will be measured in both the views using Mmode.

The measurement will be done as follows: After acquiring the deep TG views the M mode cursor is aligned with the longitudinal motion the lateral tricuspid annulus. Once the Mmode picks up a good signal, 3 cycles are chosen and measured using calipers, and an average reading is taken. TAPSE will be used to evaluate the right heart function during the intraoperative period so that the patients with deteriorating right heart function can be identified and treatment started early. The potential benefits include the simplicity and reproducibility of the technique.
