with ECG changes. The patient may need to be taken to catheter lab for emergency angiogram and stent placement. Emergency reoperation with circumex artery grafting may be required if the resultant impingement has caused complete occlusion and loss of blood ow resulting in failure to wean off bypass.
23 Enhanced Recovery
In the authors institution we use a combination of day of surgery admission together with an en­hanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) pro­gramme to improve outcomes.
Our enhanced recovery programme is based
on the following principles:
1. Established Patient pathway and diary
2. Early mobilisation and twice daily physiotherapy
3. Twice daily Enhanced recovery nurse visit
4. ERAS daily targets discussed and set
5. Discharge discussions from outset
6. Care tailored for each patient
7. Post discharge support and hospital point of contact
8. Nurse, doctor, patient and family education.
The programme resulted in 55–66% mobilised within 6 h and a reduced length of hospital stay of 1–1.5 days compared to non- ERAS in mini­mally invasive cardiac surgery.
The results of this were highlighted by the Getting it right rst time (GIRFT) study in car­diothoracic Surgery in 2018 [16].

Transoesophageal Echocardiography for Safe Endoscopic Cardiac Surgery
Palanikumar Saravanan and Andrew Knowles
Abstract
The safe practice of Endoscopic cardiac surgery is linked with the provision of good Trans oesophageal images during every stage of the procedure. One of the reasons for the slow uptake is likely to be the sporadic availability of expert TOE operators in a cardiac surgery theatre. The authors have an experience of over a decade of developments in this eld and play a very important role is the provision of this service. This chapter tries to give the reader a overview of what is required and what is possible with a particular focus on the critical role of the TOE operator in the endoscopic cardiac surgery team.

TOESafe conduct of surgeryQuality control in endoscopic cardiac surgery
Transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) is essential for the safe conduct of endoscopic cardiac surgery. With limited direct surgical access into the chest cavity, it allows review and conrmation of surgical pathology, aids the placement of various cannulae and has a vital role in diagnosing and troubleshooting problems during the procedure. It is usually performed by cardiac anaesthetists in UK though some centres around the world will have dedicated cardiolo­gists for this purpose [1].
It is mandatory in the preoperative assessment to exclude any contraindications for TOE probe insertion.
Full informed consent from the patient must detail possible trauma to lips, teeth, pharyngeal structures and the risk of oesophageal perforation which may vary from approximately 1 in 1000 to 1in 10000 cases [2].
Insertion of a well lubricated TOE probe is ideally performed with direct or video laryn­goscopy. This may be augmented with anterior traction on the mandible to open up the oropharynx and laryngopharynx.
Space for the TOE machine may be limited with a number of anaesthetic equipment (Fibre­optic bronchoscopy, Video laryngoscopy,

Cerebral oximetry and Debrillator), surgical equipment (3D stack and multiple trays needed for insertion of cannulas) and number of per­sonnel in theatre (cardiologist and anaesthetic assistants). Arranging the work space to accom ­modate the devices and personnel will help in efcient and continuous use of TOE that is required for these procedures. The TOE screen should be clearly visible to anaesthetists, sur­geons and scrub nurse. The authors use a monitor to display FOB and Video Laryngoscopy in one device and the cerebral oximetry is slaved to anaesthetic monitor. The debrillator is placed over and forms part of anaesthetic machine.

Timing of TOE:
The authors routinely perform TOE immediately after induction of anaesthesia and intubation. This will provide conrmation of the patholo­gies, review of ventricular performance and suitability of the patients anatomy to undergo endoscopic procedures. If any supporting or new evidence found at this stage, endoscopic approach has to be abandoned and sternotomy is

performed. This will prevent unnecessary inser­tion of right arm arterial line for monitoring in the use of Endo Balloon device or a neck cannula when indicated. This is important in health care systems where there may be a long wait from the time surgical decision is made to patient arrival in theatre. Some surgeons and some centres perform TOE after anaesthesia and lines insertion are complete and prior to start of surgery. This can be safely done in those centres where the patient has a recent preoperative Echocardiogram and when the surgical preference is to use other forms of aortic occlusion.
Standard TOE assessment during endoscopic
surgery using both 2D and 3D scanning:
1. Routine cardiac surgery standard views to assess anatomy, physiology and pathology
2. Dynamic assessment of arterial and venous wire and cannula insertion
3. Safe establishment of cardiopulmonary bypass ow
4. Endo balloon (intra aortic occlusion balloon) positioning, ination and cardioplegia delivery
5. Assessment of de-airing
6. Separation from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and assessment of ventricular performance
7. Assessment of surgical procedures
8. Conrmation of aortic integrity post bypass and endo balloon usage.
TOE assessment specic for endoscopic sur­gery in addition to the routine cardiac surgery standard views includes:
1. Aortic Valve: Mid oesophageal Long axis (ME LAX) and short axis (ME SAX) views and Deep Transgastric (DTG) view
Aortic Valve is assessed for its leaet integrity and any degree of regurgitation. Any regurg ita­tion must be carefully assessed due to the risk of ventricular distension during administration of
cardioplegia. A grading more than mild may well preclude use of an Endo balloon. The vena contracta measurement in DTG view and ow reversal pattern in descending thoracic aorta (DTA) is helpful in decision making.
2. Ascending aorta (AA): ME LAX view, Upper oesophageal (UE) views
In the ME LAX view reducing the angle closer to 90 and pulling the probe back will give a clear view of AA. In the UE AA view, using 90 degrees or using X plane or Biplane views will provide good assessment of a long segment of AA.
In some patients these views may not provide satisfactory assessment and we nd the views are better after positioning of the patient. Presence of severe atheromatous disease or mobile atheroma will preclude endoballoon use.
AA diameter of less than 40mm at the level of the pulmonary artery is generally required for endo balloon usage.
3. Aortic arch & descending thoracic aorta (DTA): ME and UE views
DTA can be seen well upon rotating the probe towards the left (posterior) in ME views. Keep­ing DTA in view, pulling the probe back will help in assessing the entire length of it. Using X plane or Biplane views will help in viewing longitudinal section of DTA alongside the cross section. If the TOE machine do not provide this facility, 90 degree angle is used and probe pulled back. When the proximal part of DTA is reached, the probe needs to rotated towards right (anterior) to follow the arch. Ability to obtain these views are important for placement of Endo balloon. Presence of intraluminal pathology and/or atheroma will preclude use of retrograde bypass and passage of Endo Balloon. Certainly ather­oma of Katz grade 4 and 5 in DTA would be a contraindication for retrograde bypass or guide­wire and endoballoon catheter passage.
Routine preoperative aorto femoral CT scan
can also identify this problem (Video 2).

with or without signicant regurgitation is usu­ally considered for annuloplasty surgery.
Cannulation of the superior vena cava via the internal jugular vein under TOE con trol will be required as part of bicaval cannulation to facili­tate tricuspid surgery.
Atria: All standard views
Assessment of degree of dilatation, left atrial appendage for thrombus is performed in patients scheduled for AF ablation and/or clipping of LA appendage.
Integrity of interatrial septum is assessed and presence of any PFO or ASD can make the insertion and placement of femoral venous can­nulation tricky. The area of defect needs to be continuously monitored to avoid the guidewire in left atrium during IVC cannula inser tion.
Superior vena cava (SVC): (Bicaval view, upper oesophageal AA view)
Suitability of diameter for placement of drainage cannulae and Fogarty balloon in tricuspid or re-do surgery is probably best seen in the bicaval view.
The circumflex artery blood flow: (two and four chamber view)
Attempts are made to look for circumex artery blood ow in the two chamber view where it can be usually seen as a small circular structure at the anterior mitral annulus or along its length in the 4 chamber view. Probe can be tilted and angle decreased or increased to view this as a tubular structure. Colour ow Doppler is utilised to view blood ow.
Pericardial and Pleural spaces: All Standard views and DTA views
Any uid collections in pleural spaces need to be noted. The effusion on left pleura will impair the ability to safely achieve one lung ventilation while effusion on right which may be associated with adhesions can make surgical access difficult due to failure of lung to collapse and increase the risk of bleeding postoperatively.
Conduct of surgery
SVC cannulation: Bicaval view
Initially jugular venous guidewire insertion is performed under ultrasound control. Guidewire passing down the SVC must be conrmed and therefore rule out passage of the wire into the arm. Attempts should be made to pass the guidewire into inferior vena cava (IVC) to avoid arrhythmias. After insertion, the cannula is positioned at the right atrial SVC junction or within the SVC if caval snaring is to be undertaken.
Femoral Venous Cannulation: Bicaval view, TG IVC view
A bicaval view is obtained for guidewire and cannula positioning. The angle of the probe may need to decreased to 80 to 90 degrees to visualise the guidewire as well as small left and right manipulations to keep the thin guidewire in the ultrasound beam. This view is used to ensure initial wire passage into the SVC and not into the right ventricle via the tricuspid valve or into the right atrial appendage both of which may be perforated by the drainage cannula following an abnormal wire passage.
In presence of an ASD or PFO, additional precautions are taken to identify and avoid the wire in left atrium. This is in the form of con­tinuous monitoring of the wire position with surgical manoeuvres. A cross sectional view of SVC along with the bicaval view increases sensitivity. This can be obtained in different TOE machines as X plane view or Biplane view.
Femoral arterial Cannulation: Short/long axis of descending aorta
The DTA views are obtained as described in standard assessment. This is to conrm pas­sage of the guidewire into the descending aorta and which should be clearly seen moving freely within the lumen. Every effort is made to see the J tip as con rmation. Longitudinal view of DTA alongside the cross sectional view increases the sensitivity (Video 3).

and ascending aorta
The guidewire of the Endo Balloon is visualised in the descending thoracic aorta similar to guidewire of femoral arterial cannula and followed up into arch and then ascending aorta. The X-plane or biplane view is used to increase the sensitivity. Continuous wire passage via the descending, arch and into the ascending aorta must be con rmed. Erroneous passage into the arch vessels may result in vascular spasm within that vessel. The left subclavian artery is most likely to be affected and is indicated by drop in left arm pressure.
Following correct position of the wire within the ascending aorta the balloon catheter is advanced to be positioned at the level of the main pulmonary artery. During the passage of the balloon through the guidewire, the AA is moni­tored for continuous presence o f J tip of the guidewire till balloon tip is visualised. The
Commencement of cardiopulmonary bypass: DTA views
Monitoring DTA during commencement of CPB allows conrmation of safe retrograde ow and absence of aortic dissection. The artefacts due to the mixing of forward ow from myocardial contraction and retrograde bypass ow may be visualised and should not be mistaken for aortic dissection.
If the arterial line pressures are reported as high on commencement of bypass, the patient is weaned off bypass, ventilation resumed and contralateral femoral artery is also cannulated using TOE guidance. During this time, the presence of Endo Balloon in DTA should be taken into account while visualising guidewire. Attempts are then remade to commence bypass via both femoral arterial cannulae.

in millimetres). At approximately 15–20 ml of ination, 250 lg/kg of adenosine is administered through the distal lumen of the intra-aortic bal­loon directly into the partially occluded aortic root causing cardiac standstill to allow accurate landing of the balloon. This prevents ventricular ejection and allowing the full balloon ination to occur without movement of the balloon. Once the balloon is inated to the required diameter a drop in the pressure of the endoballoon manometry line is seen indicating occlusion of the ascending aorta and isolation from CPB pressure in the distal aorta.
Inflation of Fogarty catheter in Redo pro­cedures: Bicaval view
In patients undergoing redo tricuspid valve pro­cedures external snaring of the SVC may not be possible and therefore a Fogarty catheter is used to occlude the SVC opening from inside the right atrium. We use a Fogarty balloon which can be inated up to 48 mls. The ination can be visu­alized in the bicaval view. The SVC drainage cannula is pulled back to lie approximately 3– 4 cm above the junction of RA/SVC junction. Adequate drainage is the conrmed by the
