Summary

Right ventricular (RV) dysfunction in cardiac surgery is an independent risk factor for morbidity and mortality. Raising the systemic blood pressure with norepinephrine seems to have a positive influence on the right ventricular function in several animal studies. The current study is designed to evaluate the effect of a higher blood pressure on the RV function in post cardiac surgery patients.
