Predicting stroke volume and arterial pressure fluid responsiveness in liver cirrhosis patients using dynamic preload variables: A prospective study of diagnostic accuracy
The objective was to evaluate SV and arterial pressure fluid responsiveness in liver cirrhosis patients by using dynamic preload and vascular tone variables.
DESIGN: A prospective study of diagnostic accuracy.
SETTINGS: A single-centre trial conducted from November 2013 to April 2015.
PATIENTS: Thirty-one adult patients, recipients of a living donor liver transplantat.
INTERVENTION: An intraoperative fluid challenge with 10 ml kg−1 of 0.9% normal saline.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: PPV, SVV, cardiac index and systemic vascular resistance index were measured using the Pulse index Continuous cardiac system. The PVI and...
