Brief summary

The extent focused transthoracic echocardiography when done pre-operatively to patients admitted for elective surgery and suspected to be at risk of cardiac disease specially the geriatric population can affect perioperative anesthetic management of these patients.

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTTRANSTHORACIC ECHOCARDIOGRAPY

TTE (Vivid I echocardiography machine General Electric Healthcare, Milwaukee, WI, USA) with a 3S-RS (1.5-3.6 MHz) transthoracic probe). was done by professional anesthesiologist following the :Hemodynamic Echocardiography Assessment in Real Time ( HEART) protocol. According to the clinical findings of TTE patients may be either free or have one or more of the following haemodynamic states normal, empty, vasodilated ,left ventricular systolic or diastolic failure, left ventricular systolic and diastolic failure, and right ventricular failure, valve stenosis or regurgitation of at least moderate severity
