The Sensitivity and Specificity of Pulmonary Carbon Dioxide Elimination for Noninvasive Assessment of Fluid Responsiveness

Anesthesia and Analgesia, 2016
BACKGROUND:We sought to determine whether the response of pulmonary elimination of CO2 (VCO2) to a sudden increase in positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) could predict fluid responsiveness and serve as a noninvasive surrogate for cardiac index (CI ...

Sensitivity and Specificity of a Monitoring Test

Biometrics, 1985
The usefulness of a diagnostic test is generally assessed by calculating the sensitivity and specificity, or the predictive value positive and predictive value negative of the test. When subjects are monitored periodically for evidence of disease, these calculations must incorporate the varying amounts of information per individual. If in addition, the

Combined evaluation of a panel of protein and miRNA serum‐exosome biomarkers for pancreatic cancer diagnosis increases sensitivity and specificity

International Journal of Cancer, 2015
Late diagnosis contributes to pancreatic cancer (PaCa) dismal prognosis, urging for reliable, early detection. Serum‐exosome protein and/or miRNA markers might be suitable candidates, which we controlled for patients with PaCa.
