Abstract

Patients with known case of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCMP) undergoing major open abdominal surgery under general anaesthesia poses a challenge for anesthesiologist. It is because in such surgeries there is risk of precipitating congestive heart failure. Also major haemodynamic instability due to major fluid shift. Here we report a successful case management of patient with dilated cardiomyopathy posted for exploratory abdominal surgery under general anaesthesia.
