[Anesthetic Management Using Transesophageal Echocardiography and EV1000 in a Patient with Ebstein's Anomary Undergoing Scoliosis Surgery].

An 18-year-old female patinet with Ebstein anomaly underwent surgical repair of scoliosis under total intravenous anesthesia. In addtition to normal monitors, we used transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and EV1000 (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, USA), which show stroke volume variation and stroke volume index simultaneously in a rectangular coordinates. TEE detected reversal of intracardiac shunt which caused SpO2 decrease during fixing screws at thoracic vertebrae, then manual ventilation with oxygen unproved SpO2. Because of a high venous pressure due to Ebstein anomaly, surgical bleeding seemed to be larger than usual. By using EV1000, volume status and cardiac contractility were estimated and adequate volume loading and inoptrope injection were performed to stabilize circulatory condition. The operation was completed without any cardiac and respiratory complications.
