Objective: This study aims to describe the pharmacodynamics of a fluid challenge over a 10-
minute period in postoperative patients. Design: Prospective observational study. Setting …

Rapid administration of intravenous fluid or a ''fluid challenge''is one of the most common
interventions in the intensive care patient with manifest or perceived hemodynamic …

Purpose To assess whether invasive and non-invasive blood pressure (BP) monitoring
allows the identification of patients who have responded to a fluid challenge, ie, who have …

Objective: To discuss the rationale, technique, and clinical application of the fluid challenge.
Data Source: Relevant literature from MEDLINE and authors' personal databases. Study …

Objective: To evaluate to which extent the systemic arterial pulse pressure could be used as
a surrogate of cardiac output for assessing the effects of a fluid challenge and of …

Objective: The objectives of this study are to determine what is the minimal volume required
to perform an effective fluid challenge and to investigate how different doses of IV fluids in an …

Many efforts have been made to predict, before giving fluid, whether it will increase cardiac
output. Nevertheless, after fluid administration, it is also essential to assess the therapeutic …

responsiveness. Transthoracic measurements of left ventricular outflow tract velocities (VTI) …

Objective: Values of central venous pressure of 8–12 mm Hg and of pulmonary artery
occlusion pressure of 12–15 mm Hg have been proposed as volume resuscitation targets in …

During the cholera epidemics in the nineteenth century, intravenous fluid infusion was
