La anestesia subaracnoidea (espinal) podría disminuir la función ventricular izquierda: Estudio con ecocardiografía transtorácica intraoperatoria

Left ventricular function was compromised after spinal anesthesia without significant changes in left ventricular volumes. We can infer that the reduction in arterial blood pressure after a spinal block might be due to some degree of direct ventricular depression.
