Clinical Trial Summary

Right heart failure during cardiac surgery is associated with increased perioperative morbidity and mortality. In this context, it is imperative to develop simple diagnostic tools to detect right heart failure. The purpose of this observational study is to determine if ultrasound Doppler of the femoral vein can detect and predict right ventricular failure after cardiac surgeries requiring cardiopulmonary bypass. It is expected that an elevated pulsatility of the femoral vein before the induction of general anesthesia is associated with perioperative right heart failure.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Determine the prevalence of an elevated pulsatility of the femoral vein on Doppler ultrasound before the induction of general anesthesia An elevated pulsatility on Doppler ultrasound is defined as a biphasic signal of the femoral vein with a retrograde velocity > 10 cm/s on a long axis view at an angle correction < 60 degrees. If there's signs of cardiac modulation on the Doppler ultrasound, pulsatility index will be measured in long and short axis as followed : (maximal velocity - minimal velocity)/maximal velocity. Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine the association between an elevated femoral vein pulsatility and diastolic or systolic right ventricular failure, before and after cardiac surgery and at the intensive care unit Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine the association between an elevated femoral vein pulsatility and the intracardiac pressures of the right heart cavities and the pulmonary artery Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine the association between the prevalence of an elevated femoral vein pulsatility and the portal vein pulsatility Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine the impact of positive-pressure ventilation on the femoral vein pulsatility After induction of anesthesia and before cardiopulmonary bypass.
Secondary Determine the association between a preoperative elevated femoral vein pulsatility and postoperative complications. Postoperative complications will be defined as prolonged mechanical ventilation, inotropes or vasopressors dependencies, surgical second-look, acute kidney injury, mortality, hemorrhage, surgical sites infections, delirium and strokes Immediate postoperative to Day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Compare right and left femoral vein Doppler's ultrasound Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine the most valid measure between long and short axis ultrasound of the femoral vein, and their respective sensibility and specificity to predict complications Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine the sensibility and specificity of the values obtained by the femoral vein Doppler ultrasound to predict postoperative complications Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine if the diameter of the femoral vein as a useful predictor of right heart failure or of post-operative complications Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
Secondary Determine the association between an elevated femoral vein pulsatility and postoperative delirium (as evaluated by the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist) Before induction of anesthesia to day 1 postoperatively at the intensive care unit
