Perioperatively Acquired Weakness.

abstract：:Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is increasingly used intraoperatively as a monitor of ventricular function and volume. Despite its increasing use, whether data from TEE monitoring can be interpreted accurately on-line in real-time is unknown. We studied the performance of five community-based, full-time cardiac...
