Abstract

Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is the most common and the most serious complication after cardiac surgery and is associated with increased rates of morbidity and mortality [1]. This syndrome is characterized by impaired heart function, causing a reduced oxygen delivery with further hypoxia [2]. The universally definition of LCOS includes decreases in the cardiac index (CI) to less than 2.0 L/min/m² and a systolic blood pressure below 90 mmHg, associated with tissue hypoperfusion (clammy skin, cold periphery, oliguria, elevated lactate level, confusion) in the absence of hypovolemia.
