Brief Summary

This study will investigate the different tidal volume (Vt) strategies during a cardiac catheterization procedure to determine whether or not low or high Vt have an impact on cardiac output. Research...

Detailed Description

The trial will be a randomized crossover design. The study cohort will be randomized (50/50) to begin with either low Vt or high Vt ventilation. After achieving steady state, initial cardiac output me...
