Purpose Appropriate adjustment of cardiac preload is essential to maintain cardiac output
(CO), especially in patients after cardiac surgery. This study was intended to determine …

Background This study evaluated the right ventricular end-diastolic volume index (RVEDVI)
as a marker of the hemodynamic response to a fluid challenge in the postoperative care of …

Introduction: In the postoperative management of cardiac surgery patients, pulmonary
capillary wedge pressure (PCWP) and central venous pressure (CVP) are the most …

Objectives: To determine whether the initial distribution volume of glucose (IDVG) rather
than plasma volume or blood volume is correlated better with cardiac output during the 4 …

Objective To analyze the correlation between initial distribution volume of glucose (IDVGI)
and intrathoracic blood volume measured by single indicator dilution technique. Design and …

The initial distribution volume of glucose (IDVG) has been reported to be a surrogate marker
of cardiac preload. However, the relationship between cardiac output and IDVG is not fully …

SummaryBackground and objective: Initial distribution volume of glucose (IDVG) reliably
measures the central extracellular fluid volume in the presence of fluid gain or loss. We …

We describe a patient with severe left ventricular dysfunction simultaneously monitored with
pulse contour cardiac output (PiCCO) analysis, a continuous cardiac output pulmonary …

Purpose Recognition of intraoperative hypovolemia is important for fluid management.
Previous studies demonstrated functional preload parameter pulse pressure variation (PPV) …

Methods Measurements were made in 20 patients at four predefined steps during liver
transplantation. Univariate and multivariate panel-data fixed effect regression models …
