Passive moment about the hip in straight leg raising
Design. An experimental study in which passive moment about the hip was determined as a function of hip angle. Background. Straight leg raising is widely employed in clinical examination, and there is little information on its mechanical characteristics.

Can passive leg raising be used to guide fluid administration?
Predicting fluid responsiveness has become a topic of major interest. Measurements of intravascular pressures and volumes often fail to predict the response to fluids, even though very low values are usually associated with a positive response to fluids.

Fluid responsiveness prediction using Vigileo FloTrac measured cardiac output changes during passive leg raise test [PDF]
Passive leg raising (PLR) is a so called self-volume challenge used to test for fluid responsiveness. Changes in cardiac output (CO) or stroke volume (SV) measured during PLR are used to predict the need for subsequent fluid loading. This requires a device that can measure CO changes rapidly.

An out-of-plane approach for pericapsular nerve group block: A case series
Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block is a new ultrasound (US)-guided nerve block, which has been used successfully to manage fractured hip pain. As an alternative approach to give PENG block, we have investigated the out-of-plane (OOP) approach instead ...

Fluid resuscitation is considered a cornerstone of shock treatment, but recent data have underlined the potential hazards of fluid overload. The passive leg raise (PLR) test has been introduced as one of many strategies to predict 'fluid responsiveness.' The use of PLR testing is applicable to a wide range of clinical situations and has the potential ...
