Diastolic heart failure results from a diverse group of
causes, including valvular disease, restrictive or infiltrative cardiomyopathies, and hypertensive and hypertrophic cardiomyopathies.

RIGHT HEART FAILURE
In contrast to the left ventricle (LV), the right ventricle (RV)— a thin- walled chamber with a complex
three- dimensional shape— is not adapted for significant pressure generation. The RV can usually deliver
adequate flow to the low- resistance pulmonary vasculature, but its performance is exquisitely sensitive
to RV afterload, which can increase suddenly in the
setting of acute pulmonary hypertension or pulmonary venous congestion from left ventricular failure.
Approximately two- thirds of the force involved with
right ventricular contraction is provided by the thickwalled intraventricular septum. Decreased contractility of the RV and/ or septum and changes in septal
geometry can contribute to RV failure. When the RV
begins to fail, it dilates, increasing myocardial wall
tension, myocardial oxygen demand, and filling pressures.7 Unlike the LV, the RV receives its blood supply throughout the cardiac cycle. Increases in both
systolic and diastolic RV intraventricular pressure
coupled with the systemic hypotension of RV failure
and increased myocardial oxygen demand, decreases
myocardial blood flow and contractility.
5,8
Eventually,
RV dilatation results in tricuspid insufficiency and an
abrupt rise in central venous pressure (CVP). Failure of
the RV causes systemic hypoperfusion via two mechanisms:decreased cardiac output with hypotension and
increased CVP with venous congestion. An increased
CVP effectively increases the outflow pressure to perfusion of vital organ systems to further decrease organ
perfusion accelerating multiorgan system failure.
CARDIACTRAUMA
8
Blunt cardiac injury (BCI) accounts for 10%– 25% of
trauma mortality.
9– 11
Direct impact of the chest wall, rapid
deceleration, and abdominal visceral herniation from
an injury below the diaphragm can compress the heart
between the sternum and spine. e most common cause
of death aer BCI is from rupture of one or more cardiac
chambers.
12
Nonlethal injuries aer BCI include myocardial con-
tusion, valvular lesions, laceration of the pericardium, and
le and right ventricular function. Echocardiography identies dysfunctional walls and guides uid resuscitation as
well as ionotropic support. Additionally, intramural hematomas (IMH) can result in cardiac irritability and conduction abnormalities. Intramural hematomas are relatively
benign and will resolve in 4– 12 weeks with conservative
management.9 e rhythm disturbances in the immediate
postinjury period may require temporary intravenous pacing. Valvular injury can also be diagnosed by echocardiography and may require repair or replacement of the aected
valve. Acute dissection of the coronary vessels due to BCI
is oen successfully treated with percutaneous angioplasty
and/ or stenting.13 e le anterior descending artery is the
most common coronary artery to be injured, owing to its
anterior location.
SPINALSHOCK
14
Spinal, or neurogenic shock is caused by transection of the
spinal cord above the level of T6. Injuries above this level
interrupt the outow of the sympathetic nervous system,
leading to a form of distributive shock characteristically
associated with bradycardia due to unopposed parasympathetic innervation of the heart.15 It is estimated that there
are approximately 12,000 cases a year of spinal, or neurogenic shock.16 e most common cause of traumatic spinal
cord injury includes motor vehicle accidents, falls from
signicant heights, violence, and recreational activities.
It disproportionately aects young adult males.17 In the
immediate period of traumatic injury, it is important to
assess other organ systems for injury, as spinal cord injury
is usually not an isolated lesion and hypotension in these
patients could be due to hemorrhagic shock or cardiogenic
shock from blunt cardiac injury. Transection at level C3
results in complete loss of respiratory function.17 Patients
need to have an airway device placed and be ventilated
immediately. In- line neck stabilization or cervical spine
immobilization is necessary while attempting to establish
an airway in order to avoid potentiating the spinal cord
injury. Antimuscarinics like atropine and chronotropes
such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine should
be used to increase the heart rate and blood pressure; phenylephrine should be avoided because of its association with
reex bradycardia.

ASSESSMENT OFTHE PATIENT:PRESENTING
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS AND INITIAL
INVESTIGATIONS
Preoperative evaluation of all patients with a history of HF
includes a thorough history and physical examination. e
cardiac history focuses on the etiolog y of HF, symptoms (such
as orthopnea, dyspnea on exertion, and peripheral edema),
functional capacity, current therapy— including medications
as well as devices (such as pacemakers, debrillators, or circulatory assist devices), and history of surgical procedures.4
Physical examination includes an assessment of vital signs,
auscultation of heart and lungs for rales, evaluation of jugular venous pressure, abdominal palpation for hepatomegaly
and ascites, and extremity inspection for peripheral edema.
Routine diagnostic evaluation includes electrocardiogram,
chest radiography, complete blood count, electrolytes, creatinine, glucose, and liver function tests.
18
Further preoperative evaluation is guided by the degree
of symptoms and the stage of the patient’s heart failure.
ere are two major systems used to grade HF patients.
Historically, the New York Heart Association (NYHA)
has classied HF based on the degree of functional limitation due to symptoms. More recently, the American Heart
Association and the American College of Cardiology
(AHA/ ACC) have introduced a staging system for HF,
which is meant to characterize HF as a “progressive, irreversible, syndrome caused by the interaction of risk factors
and the development of structural cardiac abnormalities.”19
e two classication systems provide complementary
information in risk assessment of HF patients (Table 10.1).
While the degree of a patient’s functional limitation, and
thus NYHA class, can improve or deteriorate, the AHA/
ACC stages are progressive and irreversible— once a patient
progresses to stage C, for instance, they cannot revert to a
lower stage in the disease process.
19
For the purposes of perioperative risk stratication,
asymptomatic patients (NYHA ClassI, AHA/ ACC stage
A and B) do not require further cardiac evaluation, but
attention is directed to optimize comorbid conditions and
risk factors for the development of HF (hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, coronary artery disease). Symptomatic
patients (NYHA classII- IV, AHA/ ACC stage C and D)
are at an increased risk for developing major adverse cardiac
events (MACE) in the perioperative period and may require
further preoperative evaluation as well as invasive monitoring and specic interventions before elective surgical procedures.4 Elective surgery is contraindicated in patients with
signs or symptoms of acute decompensated HF, and emergency procedures in these patients require specialized monitoring and therapy as described in the following sections.
20,21
Preoperative evaluation of symptomatic HF patients
(NYHA II- IV, AHA/ ACC stage C- D) should include
recent echocardiography and potentially stress testing along with evaluation of B- type natriuretic peptide.
Echocardiography evaluates le- and right- systolic and diastolic function, wall motion, and valvular and pericardial
abnormalities and estimates pulmonary artery pressures.

Reduced le ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) has
been associated with postoperative HF exacerbations and
MACE.

67% and the management plan in 44% of patients.
25
e role of preoperative stress testing and B- type natriuretic peptide (BNP) levels in symptomatic HF patients is
unclear. Released by cardiac myocytes in response to stretch
injury, BNP can stratify risk in symptomatic and asymptomatic HF patients. Among lower- risk HF patients (NYHA
classIand II), a BNP greater than 189 was associated with
a signicantly increased risk of MACE.26 A limitation of
clinically using natriuretic peptides in preoperative risk
assessment, however, is the wide range of reported cutos
and the heterogeneity of the populations studied.2 Similarly,
multiple reports have demonstrated that stress testing, when
added to clinical risk stratication, can improve prediction of postoperative cardiac death and myocardial infarc-

tion.
Most of these studies, however, have not examined
the role of preoperative stress testing in HF specic populations.2 Although BNP and stress testing may provide useful
information for perioperative risk stratication and management in select HF patients undergoing elective surgical procedures, these tests should not be routinely ordered as part
of the preoperative evaluation of HF patients.
Many patients with advanced symptomatic HF will have
pacemakers for cardiac resynchronization therapy or AICDs
for arrhythmia prophylaxis. ese devices can interact with
surgical electrocautery, to either inhibit pacemaker device
functions or cause an AICD to falsely detect an arrhythmia and deliver a therapy. e Heart Rhythm Society and
the American Society of Anesthesiologists have published
consensus guidelines for the perioperative management of
AICDs and pacemakers.29 In general, all pacemakers should
be interrogated within 12months; and all AICDs should
be interrogated within 6months of elective surgical procedures; AICDs should be inactivated (and the patient should
have external debrillator pads placed); and the pacemaker
of dependent patients should be placed in an asynchronous
pacing mode for all procedures employing monopolar electrocautery above the umbilicus. Procedures involving electrocautery below the umbilicus do not require adjustment of
the device, because there is less potential for interference.
further progression of the HF syndrome. While the degree to
which HF optimization is taken in order to reduce the risk
of perioperative cardiac events has not been thoroughly evaluated, patients with newly diagnosed HF, should have elective
procedures delayed in order to evaluate the etiology of their
myocardial dysfunction and initiate appropriate interventions.2 Patients with refractory HF may require admission for
preoperative optimization of their hemodynamic status with
invasive monitoring, vasodilators, and inotropic therapy.
Some HF medications can have adverse eects during
the perioperative period. e standard medical therapy
administered to HF patients typically includes angiotensinconverting enzyme inhibitors (ACE- I), beta blockers,
angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB), aldosterone blockers,
diuretics and sometimes digoxin, anticoagulants, and antiarrhythmic medications.4 Chronic beta- blocker therapy is
well known to reduce mortality in patients with HF, and
acute beta- blocker discontinuation can precipitate withdrawal symptoms that can be life threatening, so patients
should be maintained on these agents (e.g., bisoprolol,
carvedilol, or metoprolol) unless they require vasopressor
or inotropic support.
31– 33
e POISE trial demonstrated
that initiating high- dose beta blockers on the day of surgery
reduced cardiac mortality but increased all cause mortality,
primarily from stroke.34 Consequently, initiation of highdose beta blockers in the perioperative period, without
dose titration, is now contraindicated.

Heart failure patients presenting for surgery can be on complex
medication regimens for medical optimization and to limit
apy, and in these patients careful evaluation and management of intra- and postoperative volume status are needed
to prevent volume overload. Management of perioperative
anticoagulation for HF patients (especially those who have
an intracardiac thrombus) should be done in consultation
with the surgeon, cardiologist, and anesthesiologist.

Patients with signicant right ventricular dysfunction, particularly those with pulmonary hypertension, are
at extremely high risk for MACE and death aer noncardiac surgery. Symptomatic patients require a preoperative
evaluation including the elements described above, and
potentially may require preoperative admission for right
heart catheterization to initiate or titrate inotropes and
pulmonary vasodilators.4 Chronic pulmonary vasodilators
should be continued throughout the perioperative period.
Discontinuing intravenous prostacyclin therapy can precipitate a life- threatening pulmonary hypertensive crisis.
may be the drug of choice during induction of patients with
end- stage HF because it does not produce signicant cardiovascular depression, but concerns over its potential for
adrenal suppression limit its use. Induction with ketamine
can preserve hemodynamic stability via its sympathomimetic eects. However, in patients with compensated and
decompensated HF, induction doses of ketamine can blunt
high levels of compensatory endogenous sympathetic tone,
adversely aecting hemodynamics. Regardless of the agent
used, induction doses should be carefully titrated with

INTRAOPERATIVE MANAGEMENT:MONITORING,
SURGICAL, AND ANESTHETIC PLANNING
Although minimally invasive surgical techniques that limit
inammation, uid shis, or sympathetic activation in HF
patients could potentially reduce morbidity and mortality, high- quality clinical evidence to support this notion is
lacking. Randomized controlled trials that have reported
short- term benets have not investigated HF populations,
and have not been adequately powered to appropriately
evaluate mortality or rates of MACE.37 Observational
studies of minimally invasive surgery have shown a trend
toward decreased cardiac and surgical complications as
well as length of stay.
2,38
ere is little evidence to support
a regional approach over general anesthesia in the high- risk
HF patient. e anesthetic goals should include maintenance of hemodynamic stability and avoidance of abrupt
changes in cardiac preload, inotropic state, or aerload.
2,39– 43
e eects of intravenous anesthetic drugs in patients
with LV systolic dysfunction have been reviewed.44
Avoidance of drugs with substantial negative inotropic or
vasodilatory eects, such as barbituates and high- dose propofol, is preferable in this patient population, because many
patients with end- stage HF have xed low- stroke volumes,
and cardiac output is dependent on compensatory increases
in endogenous sympathetic response and baseline heart rate.
Suppression of endogenous sympathetic tone during induction can cause hypotension and cardiac arrest even when
medications do not have direct negative cardiac eects.
Preparation, including invasive intraoperative monitoring
limited cardiac output.
Invasive hemodynamic monitoring is recommended
for symptomatic HF patients (NYHA III- IV, AHA/ ACC
C- D) who undergo major surgical procedures. Direct arterial pressure monitoring prior to the induction of anesthesia is preferable to facilitate the titration of anesthestic
agents, vasopressors, and inotropes during this critical time.
Central venous access, which can usually be placed aer
induction, permits measurement of CVP and allows the
administration of inotropes and vasopressors if necessary.4
e role of the pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) is less
clear. Although the PAC indirectly measures le- sided lling pressures, directly measures pulmonary artery pressures,
and allows calculation of cardiac output, cardiac index,
and systemic vascular resistance, there is little high- quality
data to support the assertion that even selective placement
of a PAC for adjusting hemodynamic support improves
outcomes in surgical patients. Some expert opinion, however, still favors PAC placement in select patients at high
risk for hemodynamic disturbances undergoing major
procedures involving large uid shis.
transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), interpreted by a
trained echocardiographer, can provide a valuable adjunct
to invasive hemodynamic monitoring. Transesophageal
echocardiography can provide a wealth of quantitative and
qualitative information on le and right heart function and
regional wall motion abnormalities, and serial assessment
can help evaluate the response to therapies such as volume
administration, vasopressors, inotropes, and systemic and
pulmonary vasodilators.

and the timely administration of vasopressors and inotropes can counteract this eect.4 High doses of benzodiazepines (such as midazolam) and opiates (such as fentanyl)

right- , or biventricular failure and is associated with a low
cardiac index (<2.2 L/ min/ m2), low mixed venous saturation (<60%), and elevated lling pressures (pulmonary
capillary wedge pressure >18mmHg for le heart failure,
or CVP > 15mmHg for right heart failure).
46,47
e goals
for intraoperative management of cardiogenic shock are
to identify the cause and rapidly institute appropriate
resuscitative measures (maximizing oxygen delivery and
reducing oxygen demand) while treating any reparable
lesions. If not placed already, invasive hemodynamic
monitoring with an arterial line, central venous access,
and potentially a PAC is essential for monitoring and
administration of pharmacologic support for the patient
in cardiogenic shock. Early echocardiography evaluates
right and/ or le ventricular dysfunction, the presence of
tamponade or regional wall motion abnormalities, and
valvular dysfunction and indirectly assesses right- and
le- sided preload.
46
Initial steps in the resuscitation of cardiogenic shock
include correction of preload, aerload, heart rate, and
rhythm; minimizing myocardial oxygen demand; and
increasing oxygen- carrying capacity. Assessing volume status and optimizing preload can be one of the most challenging, yet essential, aspects of managing the patient in
cardiogenic shock. Careful assessment of lling pressures,
echocardiography, and dynamic assessments of volume
responsiveness using techniques such as pulse pressure
variation guide uid management to maintain an adequate preload and avoid peripheral or pulmonary edema.4
Maintenance of coronary and systemic perfusion pressure is important to manage cardiogenic shock, but acute
increases in aerload can reduce cardiac output in patients
with HF. Careful titration of vasopressors to maintain
coronary perfusion and initiation of peripheral or pulmonary vasodilators for elevated systemic vascular resistance
(SVR) or pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) in the setting of le- or right- sided cardiogenic shock, respectively,
enhances cardiac output.
4,48
Nonperfusing ventricular or
supraventricular arrhythmias require immediate cardioversion, and termination of atrial and junctional arrhythmias
(whenever possible and safe) should be attempted in the
patient with shock. Because of the association between
LV and RV failure and annular dilation with MR or TR,
higher heart rates (80– 100 beats per minute) can reduce
end diastolic volume to optimize lling.
4,8
Correction of
metabolic and respiratory acid/ base disturbances and
optimization of oxygenation and ventilation either noninvasively or invasively can enhance oxygen utilization.
Reducing myocardial oxygen demand by controlling fever,
agitation, or pain; avoiding shivering; and optimizing
oxygen- carrying capacity (transfusing to a hemoglobin of
10G/ dL) are important goals in the setting of reduced cardiac output.
Maintaining contractility and cardiac output with inotropic agents and vasopressors may become necessary for
persistently low cardiac output aer optimization of preload, aerload, and heart rate. Abrief description of common inotropes and vasopressors is provided in Table 10.2.
Because of the down- regulation of beta- adrenergic receptor
density and sensitivity that occurs in patients with chronic
HF, higher doses of beta agonists, such as epinephrine, norepinephrine, dobutamine, or dopamine, may be required

fever, chills, abdominal pain, and tense ascites. ere is concern for spontaneous bacterial peritonitis and sepsis. Aurinary catheter is placed and there is minimal urine output in
the next hour aer admission.
BASIC PHYSIOLOGY
Shock is a circulatory state in which perfusion and oxygen delivery is inadequate to meet the metabolic demands
of tissue at the cellular level leading to possible end- organ
damage. e classications of shock as described by Weil
and Shubin (cardiogenic, hypovolemic, obstructive, distributive), are dened by their mechanism of circulatory
dysfunction.1 Distributive shock is dened by high cardiac
output and low systemic vascular resistance (SVR). ere
are multiple pathophysiologic processes that ultimately lead
to this clinical picture, as evidenced by the various etiologies of distributive shock such as sepsis, liver failure, anaphylaxis, reperfusion injury, or adrenal insuciency.2 In a
simplied view, the circulatory system can be analogous to
an electrical circuit and therefore SVR can be derived from
Ohm’s law:pressure=ow × resistance. In the setting of
distributive shock, inammatory mediators cause microvascular dysfunction and regional vasodilation, thus compro-
system. Basal vascular tone is predominantly mediated by
the active sympathetic nervous system that innervates the
arterial and venous systems.3 Reduced activation of mecha-
noreceptors in the setting of low blood pressure leads to
increased sympathetic outow by mechanisms of venocon-
striction, vasoconstriction, increased cardiac contractility
and heartrate.
4
e splanchnic circulation is the largest blood reservoir in the body, containing 20%– 30% of total blood
volume, and has signicant innervation by sympathetic
bers.5 During conditions of circulatory compromise such
as shock, the body diverts blood ow from nonessential
organs to vital organs, maintaining cerebral, cardiac, and
renal perfusion. In response to autonomic signals and
regional vasoactive mediators, the venous component of
the splanchnic bed venoconstricts for recruitment of blood
volume in states of low arterial blood pressure in order to
maintain normal cardiac output. is selective redistribution of blood ow can lead to ischemic injury of splanchnic
organs.
Various vasoactive mediators of the splanchnic and systemic circulation have been identied in animal models
and human studies of septic shock and include endotoxin,
tumor necrosis factor, interleukin, endothelin, nitric oxide,
and angiotensin. Angiotensin appears to play a large role
in mesenteric/ portal vasoconstriction observed in anaphylactic and thermal shock animal models.

mising organ perfusion pressure. e extent to which the
body can compensate with increased ow or cardiac output to sustain organ function depends on which end of the
shock continuum the patient exists.

hypoperfusion and multiorgan failure, and early detection

last two decades, and their use has declined overall from
10.8% to 6.2% across intensive care units (ICUs) in the
United States from 2001 to 2008.8 Based on results of several large studies, the general consensus is that they likely
do not improve nor worsen patient outcomes and hospital
length of stay.
9,10,11
Central venous pressure (CVP) has traditionally been
used along with pulmonary artery occlusion pressure as a
surrogate to estimate preload and volume status and to
guide uid management in shock. However there is basically no meaningful correlation between CVP and circulating blood volume status or uid responsiveness.
12– 16
Central
venous pressure is a static measurement that is altered by
changes in intrathoracic pressure such as during mechanical
ventilation, intra- abdominal pressure, patient positioning,
pulmonary vascular resistance, and homeostatic mechanisms that lead to changes in venous tone that do not necessarily reect the patient’s volume status.17 Aretrospective
study by Boyd etal. suggests that aggressive uid resuscitation based on CVP goals in septic shock is associated with a
subsequent organ dysfunction.33 Gastric tonometry allows
for the assessment of splanchnic perfusion and potentially
for the early detection of splanchnic tissue hypoxia by measuring the gastric mucosal partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) with a nasogastric or orogastric tonometer.
34,35
Lower gastric intramucosal pH correlates with splanchnic
hypoperfusion and multiple system organ failure and has
been shown to be a more sensitive and specic prognostic
index of morbidity and mortality in critical illness and sepsis as compared to global indicators of oxygen delivery.

Indocyanine green (ICG) is a dye eliminated exclusively
by rst- pass eect and the biliary excretion of the liver.
e measurement of its clearance can therefore estimate
splanchnic and hepatic perfusion and hepatic function.

e ICG is rst injected intravenously, and measurements
of hepatic extraction are obtained via a hepatic vein catheter
or less invasive systemic plasma measurements to calculate
ICG clearance. Changes in ICG clearance are used as a surrogate for hepatic and splanchnic perfusion using the Fick
principle.
higher mortality in patients with positive uid balance and
higher CVP.18 ere are several dynamic measurements
that are more predictive of uid responsiveness such as
pulse pressure variation, stroke volume variation, passive leg
raise test, and vena cava collapsibility.
19,20,21,22,23
Arterial lactate is a biomarker of tissue hypoperfusion
and anaerobic metabolism in critically ill patients.24 Serum
lactate is a prognostic factor for mortality in shock of any
cause, and serial lactate measurements provide a good index
for patient response to therapy and reversibility of global
tissue hypoxia.
25,26
In patients with severe sepsis or septic
shock, lactate clearance aer initial resuscitation was associated with improved survival compared to groups with
persistently elevated serum lactate levels.

emphasize the importance of early hemodynamic optimization in patients with severe sepsis and septic shock in order
to improve global perfusion and survival.

SYSTEMIC INFLAMMATORY RESPONSE
SYNDROME/ SEPSIS
More than 1.1million hospitalized patients are diagnosed
with sepsis every year in the United States with an estimated cost of more than $15 billion. Sepsis is a signicant
contributor to death in the United States,44 and is the primary cause of mortality in ICUs.45 e incidence of sepsis
increases by 8.7% annually and is more common in male,
nonwhite patients based on an epidemiological study from
1979 to 2000.46 Patients admitted with the diagnosis of
sepsis have signicantly longer hospital length of stays, and
although mortality due to sepsis has continued to decrease
from 30% to 18% over the last two decades, the absolute
number of sepsis related deaths has risen.46 Based on estimates from the US Centers for Disease Control, 17% of
in- hospital deaths in the United States were attributed to
sepsis in 2008 and those patients surviving hospitalization
were more likely to be discharged to short- or long- term
care facilities.

mised due to regional alterations in blood ow and disproportionate metabolic demands of the splanchnic tissue
that lead to gut ischemia.32 Intestinal ischemia has been
postulated to be the driving force of multiple organ failure
in septic shock due to the breakdown of gut barrier function resulting in the translocation of endogenous bacterial endotoxin, activation of inammatory mediators, and
