Background It is currently uncertain which hemodynamic monitoring device reliably
measures stroke volume and tracks cardiac output changes in pediatric cardiac surgery …

Background Postoperative fluid management can be challenging in children after
haemorrhagic surgery. The goal of this study was to assess the ability of dynamic …

Background: There is an increased interest in methods of objective cardiac output
measurement in pediatric cardiac surgery. Several techniques are available, but have …

Background Dynamic variables based on the heart–lung interaction induced by positive
pressure ventilation have not been shown to be useful in assessing cardiac preload in …

Background This study evaluated the ability of a non-invasive cardiac output monitoring
device (NICOM) to predict fluid responsiveness in paediatric patients undergoing cardiac …

Background The usefulness of dynamic parameters derived by heart-lung interaction for
fluid responsiveness in pediatric patients has been revealed. However, the effects of peak …

Background Pressure recording analytical method (PRAM) is a novel, arterial pulse contour-
based method for measuring cardiac output (CO). Validation studies of PRAM in children are …

BACKGROUND: Cardiac output (CO) is a key determinant of oxygen delivery, but choosing
the optimal method to obtain CO in pediatric patients remains challenging. The pressure …

Background Dynamic variables reliably predict fluid responsiveness (FR) in adults, but no
data are available regarding their performance in infants. The aim of this prospective study …

OBJECTIVES Our aim was to verify whether the cardiac index (CI) estimated by the pressure
recoding analytical method (PRAM) was associated with clinical metabolic indexes of tissue …
