Differences in capillary recruitment between cardiac surgery and septic patients after fluid resuscitation

ConclusionsTVD after fluid administration is not different between 2 subtypes of intensive care patients. However, only in septic patients we observed a lack of coherence between the amount of fluids administered and TVD. Further research is needed to determine if TVD may serve as potential endpoint for fluid administration.
