The idea of that project is to characterize the hemodynamic changes of a daily used clinical intervention (induction of anesthesia) in a highly controlled environment by two hemodynamic monitoring devices. The aim is an advanced hemodynamic profiling of this intervention and additionally screen for changes in flow patterns in an exploratory fashion.
Both devices complement one another in their hemodynamic profiling ability. One device is a continuous monitoring with instant traceable changes and the other an intermittent point-of-care ultrasound/echocardiography device with advanced possibilities for differential diagnostics.
A second purpose is to test the possibility to implement advanced echocardiography in a point-of-care approach during anaesthesia induction and evaluate the time and quality of a comprehensive analysis by a not-certified anaesthetists with an echocardiography device with features of artificial intelligence versus a certified expert.
