Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients in whom TEE is not inserted due to various reasons (history of dysphagia or prior esophageal surgery, unrepaired tracheoesophageal fistula, esophageal diseases, like stricture, diverticulum or varices, severe coagulopathy, and seropositivity for hepatitis viruses or human immunodeficiency virus and patient on the antiplatelet agent, low molecular weight heparin or heparin infusion) will be excluded from the study.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To estimate the proportion of alterations in surgical management (including the need for repeat bypass run) due to TEE findings.Timepoint: Perioperative period (immediate before surgery and immediately after surgery)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Cost effective analysis of the change in surgical and postop medical management due to new findings, residual lesions, and rerun of bypass.Timepoint: Perioperative period (immediate before surgery and immediately after surgery)
