Using the Pulse Contour Method to Measure the Changes in Stroke Volume during a Passive Leg Raising Test [PDF]
The pulse contour method is often used with the Windkessel model to measure stroke volume. We used a digital pressure and flow sensors to detect the parameters of the Windkessel model from the pulse waveform. The objective of this study was to assess the

Passive leg raising test with minimally invasive monitoring: the way forward for guiding septic shock resuscitation? [PDF]
Background Swift and adequate fluid loading is a cornerstone of septic shock therapy. Yet, careful assessment of volume responsiveness and volume amount during the resuscitation process is a prerequisite. Both overzealous initial fluid administration and

End-tidal carbon dioxide changes induced by passive leg raising can predict fluid responsiveness in patients on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a prospective, interventional study [PDF]
Background: Veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) is increasingly used in patients with cardiogenic shock. It results in cardiopulmonary shunting with reduced native cardiac output.

The Accuracy of the Passive Leg Raising Test Using the Perfusion Index to Identify Preload Responsiveness—A Single Center Study in a Resource-Limited Setting [PDF]
Background: We investigated the accuracy of predicting preload responsiveness by means of a passive leg raising test (PLR) using the perfusion index (PI) in critically ill patients showing signs of hypoperfusion in a resource-limited setting. Methods: We

Carotid artery velocity-time integral variation combined with passive leg raising test to predict hypotension after induction in older patients under general anesthesia: a prospective study [PDF]
Background Older patients are at an increased risk of developing hypotension following the induction of general anesthesia, which is linked to a higher incidence of postoperative complications, mortality, and morbidity.

Value of variation of end-tidal carbon dioxide for predicting fluid responsiveness during the passive leg raising test in patients with mechanical ventilation: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]
Background The ability of end-tidal carbon dioxide (ΔEtCO2) for predicting fluid responsiveness has been extensively studied with conflicting results. This meta-analysis aimed to explore the value of ΔEtCO2 for predicting fluid responsiveness during the ...
