Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting: Considerations for the Anesthesiologist
Cardiac surgery is undergoing a significant paradigm shift toward increasing minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS). To achieve optimal surgical outcomes it is important that physicians consider all factors that may influence the best available approach to surgical management by the anesthesiologist. Join us to hear Dr. Scott Sadel discuss evidence-based techniques for the aggressive management of hemodynamics, oxygenation principles, heparin dosing and off-pump manipulation, as well as the importance of clear, continuous communication between surgeon and anesthesiologist.
