Summary

To investigate the influence of PEEP (Positive end-expiratory pressure), changes in preload (patient position) and changes in afterload (phenylephrine) on ultrasound measures of renal perfusion in patients after uncomplicated cardiac surgery. To investigate the effects of phenylephrine on both invasive measures of the systemic- and pulmonary circulation and, secondarily, to assess the induced changes in echocardiographic indices of left- and right ventricular systolic- and diastolic function.
