to evaluate whether perioperative haemodynamic optimisation influences outcome from infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
a consecutive series of 100 eligible patients were randomised to either haemodynamic optimisation through the use of a pulmonary artery catheter (CI > 3.0 l/min/sqm, PWP > 10 and <18 mmHg, SVR <1450 dyne/sec/cm(-5), DO(2)> 600 ml/min/sqm) or conventional treatment.
there were no differences in terms of in-hospital mortality, cardiovascular morbidity, postoperative renal failure or duration of hospital stay between the groups.
in this study perioperative haemodynamic optimisation was not beneficial.
