Dynamic Indices of Preload

Critical Care Clinics, 2010
Hypotension and shock are important issues confronting the intensivist. Volume overload can have dire consequences such as decreased gas exchange and increased myocardial dysfunction. This article explores dynamic means of determining preload responsiveness.

The Veins and Ventricular Preload

1993
A simple model of the systemic circulation is presented in which the heart pumps blood out of a venous reservoir into an arterial reservoir. The arterial and venous reservoirs, which have different compliances, are separated by the systemic vascular resistance.

Acute Preload Effects of Furosemide

Chest, 1990
Acute preload effects (as reflected by the pulmonary capillary wedge pressure [PCWP]) of an intravenous furosemide bolus were studied in 33 patients. In those patients receiving no vasoactive drug and in those receiving predominantly preload reducing agents, there was an initial rise in PCWP up until 15 minutes followed by a diuresis-induced fall in ...

The sacrotuberous ligament is preloaded in situ

Journal of the Mechanical Behavior of Biomedical Materials, 2022
The objective of this study was to evaluate the intrinsic preload of the sacrotuberous ligament. Preload measurements and anatomical experiments were performed on 20 specimens from 10 human cadavers and assessed to consider the thesis of the ligamentous tension band system as a possible load distribution.

Assessment of preload

2003
Preload is the “load before the heart”. It is determined by the venous retum and is entirely dependent on intravascular volemia. Preload is measured during the end-diastole; it is defined as “the force acting to stretch the left ventricular fibers at the end of diastole and to determine the maximal resting lengths of the sarcomeres”.
