Abstract:
:Invasive cardiac output (CO) monitoring, traditionally performed with transpulmonary thermodilution techniques, is usually reserved for high-risk patients because of the inherent risks of these methods. In contrast, transesophageal Doppler (TED) technology offers a safe, quick, and less invasive method for routine measurements of CO. After esophageal insertion and focusing of the probe, the Doppler beam interrogates the descending aortic blood flow. On the basis of the measured frequency shift between the emitted and received ultrasound frequency, blood flow velocity is determined. From this velocity, combined with the simultaneously measured systolic ejection time, CO and other advanced hemodynamic variables can be calculated, including estimations of preload, afterload, and contractility. Numerous studies have validated TED-derived CO against reference methods. Although the agreement of CO values between TED and the reference methods is limited (95% limits of agreement: median 4.2 L/min, interquartile range 3.3-5.0 L/min), TED has been shown to accurately follow changes of CO over time, making it a useful device for trend monitoring. TED can be used to guide perioperative intravascular volume substitution and therapy, with vasoactive or inotropic drugs. Various studies have demonstrated a reduced postoperative morbidity and shorter length of hospital stay in patients managed with TED compared with conventional clinical management, suggesting that it may be a valuable supplement to standard perioperative monitoring. We review not only the technical basis of this method and its clinical application but also its limitations, risks, and contraindications.
