Abstract
BACKGROUND Guidelines for the evaluation and grading of diastolic dysfunction are available for transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) is used for this purpose intraoperatively but the level of agreement between these 2 imaging modalities for grading diastolic dysfunction is unknown. We assessed agreement between awake preoperative TTE and intraoperative TEE for grading diastolic dysfunction. METHODS In 98 patients undergoing cardiac surgery, key Doppler measurements were obtained using TTE and TEE at the following time points: TTE before anesthesia induction (TTEawake), TTE following anesthesia induction (TTEanesth), and TEE following anesthesia induction (TEEanesth). The primary endpoint was grade of diastolic dysfunction categorized by a simplified algorithm, and measured by TTEawake and TEEanesth, for which the weighted κ statistic assessed observed agreement beyond chance. Secondary endpoints were peak early diastolic lateral mitral annular tissue velocity (e'lat) and the ratio of peak early diastolic mitral inflow velocity (E) to e'lat (E/e'lat), measured by TTEawake and TEEanesth, were compared using Bland-Altman limits of agreement. RESULTS Disagreement in grading diastolic dysfunction by ≥1 grade occurred in 43 (54%) of 79 patients and by ≥2 grades in 8 (10%) patients with paired measurements for analysis, yielding a weighted κ of 0.35 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.19-0.51) for the observed level of agreement beyond chance. Bland-Altman analysis of paired data for e'lat and E/e'lat demonstrated a mean difference (95% CI) of 0.51 (-0.06 to 1.09) and 0.70 (0.07-1.34), respectively, for measurements made by TTEawake compared to TEEanesth. The percentage (95% CI) of paired measurements for e'lat and E/e'lat that lay outside the [-2, +2] study-specified boundary of acceptable agreement was 36% (27%-48%) and 39% (29%-51%), respectively. Results were generally robust to sensitivity analyses, including comparing measurements between TTEawake and TTEanesth, between TTEanesth and TEEanesth, and after regrading diastolic dysfunction by the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE)/European Association of CardioVascular Imaging (EACVI) algorithm. CONCLUSIONS There was poor agreement between TTEawake and TEEanesth for grading diastolic dysfunction by a simplified algorithm, with disagreement by ≥1 grade in 54% and by ≥2 grades in 10% of the evaluable cohort. Future studies, including comparing the prognostic utility of TTEawake and TEEanesth for clinically important adverse outcomes that may be a consequence of diastolic dysfunction, are needed to understand whether this disagreement reflects random variability in Doppler variables, misclassification by the changed technique and physiological conditions of intraoperative TEE, or the accurate detection of a clinically relevant change in diastolic dysfunction.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To estimate the current practice in the perioperative management of patients undergoing cardiac surgery due to infective endocarditis. DESIGN A prospective, open, 24-item, web-based cross-sectional survey. SETTING Online survey endorsed by the European Association of Cardiothoracic Anesthesiology and Intensive Care (EACTAIC). PARTICIPANTS Members of the EACTAIC. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS A total of 156 responses from 44 countries were received, with a completion rate of 99%. The response rate was 16.6%. Most respondents (76%) practiced cardiac anesthesia in European hospitals, and most respondents stated that a multidisciplinary endocarditis team was not established at their center, that cardiac anesthesiologists appeared to be involved infrequently in those teams (36%), and that they were not involved in decision-making on indication and timing of surgery (88%). In contrast, the cardiac anesthesiologist performed intraoperative antibiotic therapy (62%) and intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (90%). Furthermore, there was a relative heterogeneity concerning perioperative monitoring, as well as for coagulation and transfusion management. CONCLUSIONS This international survey evaluated current practice among cardiac anesthesiologists in the perioperative management of patients with infective endocarditis and the anesthesiologist's role in multidisciplinary decision-making. Heterogeneity in treatment approaches was identified, indicating relevant knowledge gaps that should encourage further clinical research to optimize treatment and postoperative outcomes in this specific population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the agreement of the 2016 ASE/EACVI guidelines for grading diastolic dysfunction (DD) with the most commonly used intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography (TEE)-based diastolic function grading algorithm in cardiac surgical patients, and to describe the contribution of the echocardiographic variables used in the algorithms to any observed differences. DESIGN Retrospective data analysis. SETTING University tertiary medical center. PARTICIPANTS Hundred and one patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) at a single institution from June 2017 to February 2019. INTERVENTIONS Preoperative transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) diastolic function grade determined by the 2016 American Society of Echocardiography (ASE)/European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging (EACVI) guidelines was compared to intraoperative diastolic function grade obtained by TEE. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Incidence of DD on preoperative TTE was only 19.8%, while 62.3% of patients were graded as having DD on the intraoperative TEE exam. There was grade agreement between TTE and TEE in only 47/101 patients (46.5%). The McNemar test showed poor agreement between the two algorithms (OR for disagreement = 15.33, CI = 4.77-49.30; p < 0.0001). Despite the low incidence of DD on preoperative TTE, mean lateral e' values were significantly lower on TTE compared to TEE (7.7 cm/s vs 9.5 cm/s; p = < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS There is strong disagreement between TTE and TEE-based DD grading algorithms. Due to the different echocardiographic variables used in each and the unique clinical settings in which they are applied, they produce fundamentally different results.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The authors sought to (1) characterize the rationale underpinning anesthesiologists' use of various perioperative strategies hypothesized to affect renal function in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery, (2) characterize existing belief about the quality of evidence addressing the renal impact of these strategies, and (3) identify potentially renoprotective strategies for which anesthesiologists would most value a detailed, evidence-based review. DESIGN Survey of perioperative practice in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery. SETTING Online survey. PARTICIPANTS Members of the Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists (SCA). INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS & MAIN RESULTS The survey was distributed to more than 2,000 SCA members and completed in whole or in part by 202 respondents. Selection of target intraoperative blood pressure (and relative hypotension avoidance) was the strategy most frequently reported to reflect belief about its potential renal effect (79%; 95% CI: 72-85). Most respondents believed the evidence supporting an effect on renal injury of intraoperative target blood pressure during cardiac surgery was of high or moderate quality. Other factors, including a specific nonrenal rationale, surgeon preference, department- or institution-level decisions, tradition, or habit, also frequently were reported to affect decision making across queried strategies. Potential renoprotective strategies most frequently requested for inclusion in a subsequent detailed, evidence-based review were intraoperative target blood pressure and choice of vasopressor agent to achieve target pressure. CONCLUSIONS A large number of perioperative strategies are believed to variably affect renal injury in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery, with wide variation in perceived quality of evidence for a renal effect of these strategies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Assessing diastolic dysfunction is essential and should be part of every routine echocardiography examination. However, clinicians routinely observe lower mitral annular velocities by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) under anesthesia than described by awake transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). It would be important to know whether this difference persists under constant loading conditions. We hypothesized that mean early diastolic mitral annular velocity, measured by tissue Doppler imaging (TDI, JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic1/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff) would be different in the midesophageal 4-chamber (ME 4Ch) than in the apical 4-chamber (AP 4Ch) view under unchanged or constant loading conditions. Secondarily we examined (1) JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic2/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff in an alternative transesophageal view with presumed superior Doppler beam alignment, the deep transgastric view (DTG), compared to those in the AP 4Ch, and (2) early diastolic speckle tracking-based strain rate (JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic3/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff), in the ME 4Ch and in the AP 4Ch. METHODS Twenty-five consecutive adult patients undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery from February 2017 to July 2017 were included. Both TTE and TEE measurements were obtained under anesthesia in a randomized order in the AP 4Ch, ME 4Ch, and DTG views. Within-patient average values were compared by paired t tests with a Bonferroni adjustment. Box plots, correlation, and agreement by Bland-Altman were examined for all 3 comparisons. A second echocardiographer independently acquired and analyzed images; images were reanalyzed after 4 weeks. Image quality and reproducibility were also reported. RESULTS Averaged JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic4/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff measurements were lower in the ME 4Ch than in the AP 4Ch (6.6 ± 1.7 cm/s vs 7.0 ± 1.5 cm, P = .028; within-patient difference mean ± standard deviation: 0.6 ± 1.2 cm/s). An alternative TEE view for JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic5/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff, the DTG, also exhibited lower mean values (6.0 ± 1.6 cm/s, P = .006; within-patient difference mean ± standard deviation: 1.1 ± 1.8 cm/s). JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic6/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff strain rate showed a low degree of bias, but greater variability (ME 4Ch: 0.87 ± 0.32%/s vs AP 4Ch: 0.73 ± 0.18%/s, P = .078; within-patient difference mean ± standard deviation: -0.1 ± 0.2%/s). CONCLUSIONS This study confirms that TEE modestly underestimates JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic7/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff but not to a clinically relevant extent. While JOURNAL/asag/04.03/00000539-202105000-00029/inline-graphic8/v/2021-04-15T211206Z/r/image-tiff in the DTG is not a promising alternative, the future role for speckle tracking-based early diastolic strain rate is unknown.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is very common among patients undergoing cardiac surgery and is associated with increased mortality and morbidity. The present study tested the hypothesis of whether left atrial strain (LAS) can be used as a single parameter to predict LVDD (per 2016 LVDD evaluation guidelines) and elevated left ventricular filling pressure (LVFP) (ie, LVDD grades II and III) in patients scheduled for off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) surgery. DESIGN A prospective observational study. SETTINGS Tertiary-care level hospital. PARTICIPANTS The study comprised 60 patients undergoing elective OPCABG. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Transthoracic echocardiography was performed within 24 hours of surgery by an anesthesiologist. LVDD was graded per American Society of Echocardiography/European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging recommendations for 2016 LVDD guidelines. Left atrial (LA) function was evaluated using two-dimensional strain measurements obtained with the speckle-tracking echocardiography technique. Receiver operating characteristic curves were constructed, and the area under the curve was derived for the prediction of elevated LVFP by LAS. Fourteen (23.3%) patients had elevated LVFP. Global LA reservoir strain (LASr) reduced significantly as the LVDD grade worsened (28.9% ± 8.3%, 21.8% ± 7.2%, 15.6% ± 4.5% and 11.9% ± 1.3%, respectively, for normal LV diastolic function and grades I, II, and III LVDD; p < 0.0001). Similar trends were noted for other components of LAS; namely, global LA conduction, global LA contraction strain, and LAS rate. The ability to predict high LVFP with LASr was statistically significant, with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.92 (confidence interval 0.82-0.97; p < 0.001), and a Youden's index for LASr of 19% was obtained with 85.71% sensitivity and 84.78% specificity. The ability of LAS and its components to predict increased LVFP in various subpopulations (normal v reduced ejection fraction) yielded statistically significant results. CONCLUSIONS In patients scheduled for OPCABG, cardiac anesthesiologists successfully could measure LAS with speckle-tracking echocardiography in the preoperative period. LAS as a single parameter was significantly associated with the grade of LVDD. LASr decreased significantly with worsening grade of LVDD. Furthermore, an LASr value <19% significantly predicted a high LVFP, and LASr predicted high LVFP in both preserved and reduced ejection fraction equally well.
