The objective of the trial was to evaluate velocity-associated parameters of pulsed-wave Doppler ultrasound at induction, discharge from the post-anaesthesia care unit and during inspiratory cough in addition to the consumption of phenylephrine during the operation in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery with three types of anaesthesia management. The patients in this trial were visited during the entire operation and just before leaving the post-anaesthesia care unit. Velocity-associated data related to pulsed-wave Doppler ultrasound and the consumption of phenylephrine were collected.
