Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyTHE BENEFICIAL VALUES OF TRANSOESOPHAGEAL DOPPLER IN INTRAOPERATIVE FLUID GUIDANCE VERSUS STANDARD CLINICAL MONITORING PARAMETERS IN INFANTS UNDERGOING KASAI OPERATION.
Fluid overload in infants can result from inappropriate volume expansion (VE). The aim of this work was to evaluate the beneficial values of Transoesophageal Doppler TED in intraoperative fluid guidance versus standard clinical monitoring parameters in infants undergoing Kasai operation. ⋯ TED guided intraoperative fluid intake in infants undergoing Kasai operation optimize fluid consumption and improve outcome associated with shorter hospital stay.
