Cardiac cycle efficiency and dicrotic pressure variations: new parameters for fluid therapy: An observational study

CONCLUSION: In this pilot study conducted in a population of surgical patients mechanically ventilated with a VT less than 8 ml kg−1, a dynamic model of fluid challenge assessment, including PPV, ΔCCE and ΔSAP − Pdic, enhances the prediction of fluid challenge response after 5 min of a 10-min administration. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ACTRN12616001479493.
