Trial With Deltex Cardio in Elective Bowel Resection Patients

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: 1 Fluid Management

In brief

The purpose of this study is: * To determine if the intraoperative fluid administration with the Deltex CardioQ esophageal Doppler will reduce the length of stay after elective bowel resection. * The probe can be used to dynamically measure stroke volume and cardiac output. This information will assist us in determining the ideal amount of fluids to be administered. * To determine if the fluid administration established by the esophageal probe will result in a shorter length of stay in elective bowel resection patients. * The investigators plan to enroll 100 patients in this study.
