Brief summary

Observational study of patients undergoing open heart surgery. During the procedure video clips of right heart are stored and compared to trans-oesophageal ultrasound recordings and ECG recordings.

Detailed description

Observational study of patients undergoing open heart surgery. During the procedure video clips of right heart are stored and compared to trans-oesophageal ultrasound recordings and ECG recordings. Right heart volume status and function is controlled and induced with theophylline and ventilator regulated positive end-expiratory pressure recordings.

Interventions

DRUGTheophylline

iv injection

PROCEDUREVentilator positive end expiratory pressure adjustment

Positive end-expiratory pressure variation

DEVICEVideorecording

Intervention model description

Patients undergo medication intervention (w/intravenous theophylline) and ventilator volume adjustements, and serial ventricular function parameters are compared (pre-and post-intervention measurements).
