Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The Cheetah NICOM is a non-invasive cardiac output monitor that has been validated in various clinical contexts but not during the occlusion of major arteries, as takes place in vascular surgery. The present study will evaluate the precision and validity of the measures taken by the device during open vascular surgery procedures. The measurements will be compared to the those calculated by transesophageal echocardiography at various key points during the surgeries. The validity of the cardiac output, stroke volume and stroke volume variation measurements will be evaluated, as well as the device's ability to track rapid changes in cardiac output.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Aortic Aneurysm Repair

The impact of large abdominal retractors and an abdominal aortic cross-clamp on the validity of the Cheetah NICOM's measurements will be evaluated in this group.

Cheetah NICOM

Intervention Type DEVICE

The Cheetah NICOM will be installed on all patients to evaluate the validity of its measurements.

Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)

Intervention Type DEVICE

TEE will serve as gold standard measurements for the evaluation of the Cheetah NICOM.

Femoral Endarterectomy

The impact of the clamping of a large peripheral arterial vessel on the validity of the Cheetah NICOM's measurements will be evaluated in this group.
