Abstract Introduction In ICUs, fluid administration is frequently used to treat hypovolaemia.
Because volume expansion (VE) can worsen acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) …

Abstract Introduction Esophageal Doppler provides a continuous and non-invasive estimate
of descending aortic blood flow (ABF) and corrected left ventricular ejection time (LVETc) …

Introduction The aim of this study was to assess how mean systemic pressure (Psm) and
resistance to venous return (Rvr) behave during passive leg raising (PLR) in cases of fluid …

Introduction The aim of this study was to determine whether the degree of fluid

Abstract Introduction Pleth Variability Index (PVI) is a new algorithm that allows continuous
and automatic estimation of respiratory variations in the pulse oximeter waveform amplitude …

Introduction The correction of hypovolemia with acellular fluids results in acute
normovolemic anemia. Whether the choice of the infusion fluid has an impact on the …

Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a life-saving modality used
in the management of cardiopulmonary failure that is refractory to conventional medical and …

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is used in critically ill patients with severe
pulmonary and/or cardiac failure. Blood is drained from the venous system and pumped …

Background Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is a cardiorespiratory support
technique for patients with circulatory or pulmonary failure. Frequently, large-volume fluid …

Introduction Prone positioning in respiratory failure has been shown to be a useful adjunct in
the treatment of severe hypoxia. However, the prone position can result in dislodgment or …
