Fluid responsiveness predicted by noninvasive Bioreactance-based passive leg raise test
Intensive Care Medicine, 2010 To study the feasibility of predicting fluid responsiveness (FR) by passive leg raising (PLR) using a Bioreactance-based noninvasive cardiac output monitoring device (NICOM).This prospective, two-center study included 75 consecutive intensive care unit (ICU) adult patients immediately after cardiac surgery. NICOM was used to continuously record cardiac

The passive leg raising test (PLR)
Colombian 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.

Quantifying passive resistance to motion in the straight-leg-raising test on asymptomatic subjects
Journal of Osteopathic Medicine, 1993 Abstract The clinician needs an objective way to measure limb motion in the straight-leg-raising test. A biomechamcal algorithm was used to quantify resistance to motion in 15 asymptomatic subjects. Measurements from a pendulum electrogoniometer and hand-held load cell were used to calculate a moment representing passive resistance to ...

End-tidal carbon dioxide and arterial pressure for predicting volume responsiveness by the passive leg raising test: a commentary [PDF]
Intensive Care Medicine, 2013 Dear Editor, We read with interest the manuscript by Monnet et al. [1] concerning the role of end-tidal carbon dioxide (etCO2) in predicting volume responsiveness by the passive leg raising (PLR) test. If we agree with these distinguished experts that it is important to study indices of preload dependence, in order to limit the deleterious effects of ...

Methods of assessing fluid responsiveness in septic shock patients: a narrative review
Anaesthesiology Intensive Therapy, 2022 A growing body of evidence shows that some septic patients experience fluid overload, which leads to an increased number of serious complications and death. This is because the majority of septic patients are fluid non-responders.

Current Cardiology Reviews, 2022 Abstract: The management of sepsis requires the rapid administration of fluid to support blood pressure and tissue perfusion. Guidelines suggest that patients should receive 30 ml per kg of fluid over the first one to three hours of management. The next concern is to determine which patients need additional fluid.
