While central venous pressure (CVP) is routinely measured during cardiac surgery, the hemodynamic impact of venous hypertension on end-organ perfusion often remains unappreciated. We present a case in which transesophageal echography (TEE) was used to observe the impact of CVP variations on intrarenal venous flow velocities during cardiac surgery.
