Brief Summary:

Evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the XL trend measured by Florence (Critical Perfusion Inc, Palo Alto, California) in the prediction of morbimortality of Mexican patients post-operated of elective cardiovascular surgery.

Hypothesis: 1. The gastric reactance measurement (XL) correlates with the morbimortality (postoperatory shock, excessive bleeding, vasoplegic syndrome and death) and with the risk predictors (APACHE II, STS, SOFA, and EUROSCORE II) with patients post-operated of elective cardiac surgery. 2. It is possible to identify the cut-off point of the values of the gastric reactance (XL) as a predictive tool of morbimortality in patients post-operated of elective cardiac surgery. 3. The gastric reactance (XL) is a safe measurement to patients undergoing cardiac surgery.


Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Cardiac Failure Ventricular Dysfunction Valvular Heart Disease Device: Florence device Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

A maximum of 35 patients with age greater or equal to 18 years with elective surgery (valvular surgery, revascularization, or a combination of both) that comply with the inclusion/exclusion criteria of this protocol will be enrolled.

Investigational device: Florence (Gastric Impedance Spectrometer System or ISMO). Comparative with Risk scales SOFA, APACHE II, STS, Euroscore II, hemodynamic variables, lactate and mixed venous saturation.

The Florence catheter will be placed at the beginning of the surgery and up to 72 hours in ICU.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Correlation between gastric reactance (XL) and morbimortality and risk predictors [ Time Frame: 72 hours ]
    Multivariate analysis to observe variability between different events according to data distribution to determine how is affecting the risk scales, hemodynamic variables, lactate and mixed venous oxygen saturation, morbidity and mortality with central gastric reactance (XL).

  2. Sensibility and specificity of the collected variables [ Time Frame: 72 hours ]
    ROC curves will be calculated to determine sensibility and specificity of the variables.

  3. Adverse events tracing with the use of Florence catheter [ Time Frame: 30 days ]
    Serious Adverse Device Effects and Adverse Events assessment to evaluate device safety.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Correlations between XL measurements and medication [ Time Frame: 72 hours ]
    Multivariate analysis to observe variability between different events according to data distribution to determine how is affecting XL with amines, proton-pump inhibitors, and anesthesia medications.

  2. Correlations between laboratory parameters and XL [ Time Frame: 72 hours ]
    Multivariate analysis to observe variability between different events according to data distribution to determine how is affecting XL with laboratory parameters.

  3. Usability of Florence device in a real environment. [ Time Frame: 72 hours ]
    Questionnaire for the nurse and/or the physician regarding the use of Florence device at the Operating Room and Intensive Care Unit.
