The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of an algorithm based on hemodynamic parameters obtained by single transpulmonary thermodilution (STD) combined with continuous monitoring of central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) for perioperative management of patients undergoing OPCAB.
At the present time, there is an increasing tendency to perform off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB). However, OPCAB poses a variety of challenges from the point of view of the anesthesiologist and the intensivist. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of an algorithm based on hemodynamic parameters obtained by single transpulmonary thermodilution (STD) combined with continuous monitoring of central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) for perioperative management of patients undergoing OPCAB.

In the CM group, therapy was guided by central venous pressure, mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR)
In the AM group by the intrathoracic blood volume index, MAP, HR, central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and cardiac index (CI). The measurements were performed before and during surgery, and at 2, 4 and 6 hrs post-operatively.
