Pleth variability index versus pulse pressure variation for intraoperative goal-directed fluid therapy in patients undergoing low-to-moderate risk abdominal surgery: a randomized controlled trial

BMC Anesthesiology, 2019
Background Goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) based on dynamic indicators of fluid responsiveness has been shown to decrease postoperative complications and hospital length of stay (LOS) in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery.

Goal-directed colloid administration improves the microcirculation of healthy and perianastomotic colon

, 2009
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to compare the effects of goal-directed colloid fluid therapy with goal-directed crystalloid and restricted crystalloid fluid therapy on healthy and perianastomotic colon tissue in a pig model of colon anastomosis ...

Self‐Sealing Microneedles Improve Precision and Reduce Reflux in Subretinal Cell Transplantation

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Ultrafine 49G microneedles enable subretinal delivery of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells through a 50 µm outer diameter tip. Compared with conventional 38G microcannulas, these microneedles reduce cell suspension reflux in a rabbit model, highlighting the potential of microinvasive delivery instruments to improve ...

Is goal-directed fluid therapy based on dynamic variables alone sufficient to improve clinical outcomes among patients undergoing surgery? A meta-analysis

Critical Care, 2018
Background Whether goal-directed fluid therapy based on dynamic predictors of fluid responsiveness (GDFTdyn) alone improves clinical outcomes in comparison with standard fluid therapy among patients undergoing surgery remains unclear.

Organoids as Building Blocks for Adaptive and Resilient Biohybrid Robots

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biohybrid robots combine engineered living tissues with synthetic materials and have emerged as a promising class of soft robotic systems capable of mimicking biological functions such as biodegradability, energy efficiency and flexible motions. By integrating biological and synthetic components, these systems leverage complementary properties

The impact of intraoperative goal-directed fluid therapy on complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy

Annals of Medicine and Surgery, 2018
Optimal fluid balance is critical to minimize anastomotic edema in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. We examined the effects of decreased fluid administration on rates of postoperative pancreatic leak and delayed gastric emptying.Retrospective study of 105 patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy at a single institution from January 2015 ...

Goal-Directed Fluid Resuscitation

, 2011
Fluid resuscitation and management are integral to critical care. Management strategies for common conditions in the intensive care unit are often in conflict. Evidence supports a goal-directed approach to fluid administration, and a number of goals have
