A pressure transducer system continuously records aortic pressure (Pa) and it is essential that it is set at 5 cm below the sternum, estimating the position of the aortic root. Both the transducer system and the pressure wire system should be zeroed simultaneously prior to the case; this is by opening all ports to air. The entire system should be appropriately flushed afterwards.
