Eligibility

Sex/Gender
All

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Adult patients over 18 years scheduled for on pump cardiac surgery who developed new RV systolic dysfunction after CPB separation were eligible. RV dysfunction was defined as TAPSE less than 17 mm on intraoperative echocardiography together with clinical signs requiring inotropic support persistent hypotension and elevated CVP. Enrolment occurred when the clinical team decided to initiate inotropic therapy during or immediately after CPB weaning

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Emergency surgery Prior intake of inotropic support. Severe hepatic, renal impairment. Patients for pulmonary thromboendarterectomy, Contraindication for use of TEE
