Abstract

The introduction of echocardiography (TEE) in the evaluation of the hemodynamic status in non-cardiac surgery has been a key advance. TEE allows an early diagnosis of cardiac problems and to guide therapy with vasoactive drugs, beta-blockers or fluids following direct evaluation of cardiac function and avoid to guess what is happening
