Echocardiography and passive leg raising in the postoperative period [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Anaesthesiology, 2017
Signs of hypovolaemia are frequent in the postoperative period, but not all patients need or respond to fluid administration. An increase in cardiac output (CO) after passive leg raising (PLR) has been demonstrated to be useful as a volume response predictor in non-surgical, spontaneously breathing patients.The objective of this study was to evaluate ...

Predicting Fluid Responsiveness by Passive Leg Raising: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of 23 Clinical Trials

open access: yes, 2016
Passive leg raising creates a reversible increase in venous return allowing for the prediction of fluid responsiveness. However, the amount of venous return may vary in various clinical settings potentially affecting the diagnostic performance of passive

Can passive leg raise predict the response to fluid resuscitation in ED? [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Emergency Medicine, 2022
Abstract Objective Passive leg raise (PLR) can be used as a reversible preload challenge to stratify patients according to preload response. We aim to evaluate the accuracy of PLR, monitored by a non-invasive cardiac output monitor in predicting to response to fluid resuscitation in emergency department (ED).

Passive leg raising: influence of blood pressure transducer site [PDF]

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine, 2013
Dear Editor, We read with interest the published articles about the passive leg raising (PLR) test [1, 2]. The authors applied the changes of arterial pulse pressure and pulse contour-derived cardiac output to predict the fluid response during the PLR test; however, they did not demonstrate the exact position of the blood pressure transducer and ...

Passive leg raising in CPR: Increasing the effectiveness of each compression [PDF]

open access: yesResuscitation, 2016
Producción Científica Latest guidelines on resuscitation of cardiac arrest in adults have highlighted again the importance of beginning cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) as earlier as possible with high-quality chest compressions (depth of 5–6 cm, rate of 100–120 compressions per minute with complete chest recoil, and minimizing interruptions) in ...

Involuntary hamstring muscle activity reduces passive hip range of motion during the straight leg raise test: a stimulation study in healthy people

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background Involuntary hamstring muscle activity is present in some people during the straight leg raise test, but it is not known to what extent involuntary muscle activity limits passive joint range of motion.

The passive leg raising test (PLR)

open access: yesColombian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2015
Introduction: The passive leg raising test (PLR) allows physicians to determine which patients require treatment with intravenous fluids. Objectives: It is important to be aware of tools that help us to determine the response to the passive leg raising test, as well as understanding in which clinical situations it can be performed.

Changes in the Plethysmographic Perfusion Index During an End-Expiratory Occlusion Detect a Positive Passive Leg Raising Test*

open access: yes, 2020
International audienceObjectives: The end-expiratory occlusion test for assessing preload responsiveness consists in interrupting mechanical ventilation for 15 seconds at end-expiration and measuring the cardiac index changes.

Passive leg raising: five rules, not a drop of fluid! [PDF]

open access: yesCritical Care, 2015
In acute circulatory failure, passive leg raising (PLR) is a test that predicts whether cardiac output will increase with volume expansion [1]. By transferring a volume of around 300 mL of venous blood [2] from the lower body toward the right heart, PLR mimics a fluid challenge.
