Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Venous pressure is an often-unrecognized cause of patient morbidity. However, bedside assessment of PV is challenging. We review the clinical significance of venous pressure measurement, existing techniques, and introduce the Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) Score as a novel approach using doppler ultrasound to assess venous pressure. RECENT FINDINGS Studies show clear associations between elevated venous pressure and adverse outcomes in critically ill patients. Current venous pressure measurement techniques include physical examination, right heart catheterization (RHC), two-dimensional ultrasound, and a variety of labor-intensive research-focused physiological maneuvers. Each of these techniques have specific shortcomings, limiting their clinical utility. To address these gaps, Beaubien-Souligny et al. introduced the VExUS Score, a novel doppler ultrasound-based method that integrates IVC diameter with doppler measurements of the hepatic, portal, and renal veins to generate a venous congestion assesment. Studies show strong correlations between VExUS score and RHC measurements, and well as an association between VExUS score and improvement in cardiorenal acute kidney injury, diuretic response, and fluid status shifts. However, studies in noncardiac populations have been small, heterogenous, and inconclusive. SUMMARY Early studies evaluating the use of doppler ultrasound to assess venous congestion show promise, but further research is needed in diverse patient populations and clinical settings.

Kenny JES. A framework for heart-lung interaction and its application to prone position in the acute respiratory distress syndrome. Front Physiol 2023; 14:1230654. [PMID: 37614757 PMCID: PMC10443730 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1230654] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/24/2023] [Indexed: 08/25/2023] Open
Abstract
While both cardiac output (Qcirculatory) and right atrial pressure (PRA) are important measures in the intensive care unit (ICU), they are outputs of the system and not determinants. That is to say, in a model of the circulation wherein venous return and cardiac function find equilibrium at an 'operating point' (OP, defined by the PRA on the x-axis and Qcirculatory on the y-axis) both the PRA and Qcirculatory are, necessarily, dependent variables. A simplified geometrical approximation of Guyton's model is put forth to illustrate that the independent variables of the system are: 1) the mean systemic filling pressure (PMSF), 2) the pressure within the pericardium (PPC), 3) cardiac function and 4) the resistance to venous return. Classifying independent and dependent variables is clinically-important for therapeutic control of the circulation. Recent investigations in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have illuminated how PMSF, cardiac function and the resistance to venous return change when placing a patient in prone. Moreover, the location of the OP at baseline and the intimate physiological link between the heart and the lungs also mediate how the PRA and Qcirculatory respond to prone position. Whereas turning a patient from supine to prone is the focus of this discussion, the principles described within the framework apply equally-well to other more common ICU interventions including, but not limited to, ventilator management, initiating vasoactive medications and providing intravenous fluids.

Analogue Mean Systemic Filling Pressure: a New Volume Management Approach During Percutaneous Left Ventricular Assist Device Therapy. J Cardiovasc Transl Res 2022; 15:1455-1463. [PMID: 35543833 PMCID: PMC9722875 DOI: 10.1007/s12265-022-10265-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2022] [Accepted: 04/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
The absence of an accepted gold standard to estimate volume status is an obstacle for optimal management of left ventricular assist devices (LVADs). The applicability of the analogue mean systemic filling pressure (Pmsa) as a surrogate of the mean circulatory pressure to estimate volume status for patients with LVADs has not been investigated. Variability of flows generated by the Impella CP, a temporary LVAD, should have no physiological impact on fluid status. This translational interventional ovine study demonstrated that Pmsa did not change with variable circulatory flows induced by a continuous flow LVAD (the average dynamic increase in Pmsa of 0.20 ± 0.95 mmHg from zero to maximal Impella flow was not significant (p = 0.68)), confirming applicability of the human Pmsa equation for an ovine LVAD model. The study opens new directions for future translational and human investigations of fluid management using Pmsa for patients with temporary LVADs.

Abstract
The characteristics of physiologic hemodynamic coherence are not well-investigated. We examined the physiological relationship between circulating blood volume, sublingual microcirculatory perfusion, and tissue oxygenation in anesthetized individuals with steady-state physiology. We assessed the correlation of mean circulatory filling pressure analogue (Pmca) with sublingual microcirculatory perfusion and red blood cell (RBC) velocity using SDF+ imaging and a modified optical flow-based algorithm. We also reconstructed the 2D microvessels and applied computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to evaluate the correlation of Pmca and RBC velocity with the obtained pressure and velocity fields in microvessels from CFD (pressure difference, (Δp)). Twenty adults with a median age of 39.5 years (IQR 35.5−44.5) were included in the study. Sublingual velocity distributions were similar and followed a log-normal distribution. A constant Pmca value of 14 mmHg was observed in all individuals with sublingual RBC velocity 6−24 μm s−1, while a Pmca < 14 mmHg was observed in those with RBC velocity > 24 μm s−1. When Pmca ranged between 11 mmHg and 15 mmHg, Δp fluctuated between 0.02 Pa and 0.1 Pa. In conclusion, the intact regulatory mechanisms maintain a physiological coupling between systemic hemodynamics, sublingual microcirculatory perfusion, and tissue oxygenation when Pmca is 14 mmHg.

Abstract
Aims Recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rh‐BNP) is commonly used as a decongestive therapy. This study aimed to investigate the instant effects of rh‐BNP on cardiac output and venous return function in post‐cardiotomy patients with congestive heart failure (CHF). Methods and results Twenty‐four post‐cardiotomy heart failure patients were enrolled and received a standard loading dose of rh‐BNP. Haemodynamic monitoring was performed via a pulmonary artery catheter before and after the administration of rh‐BNP. The cardiac output and venous return functions were estimated by depicting Frank‐Starling and Guyton curves. After rh‐BNP infusion, variables reflecting cardiac congestion and venous return function, such as pulmonary artery wedge pressure, mean systemic filling pressure (Pmsf) and venous return resistance index (VRRI), reduced from 15 ± 3 to 13 ± 3 mmHg, from 32 ± 7 to 28 ± 7 mmHg and from 6.7 ± 2.6 to 5.7 ± 1.8 mmHg min m2/L, respectively. Meanwhile, cardiac index, stroke volume index, and the cardiac output function curve remained unchanged per se. The decline in Pmsf [−13% (−22% to −8%)] and VRRI [−12% (−25% to −5%)] was much greater than that in the systemic vascular resistance index [−7% (−14% to 0%)]. In the subgroup analysis of reduced ejection fraction (<40%) patients, the aforementioned changes were more significant. Conclusions rh‐BNP might ameliorate venous return rather than cardiac output function in post‐cardiotomy CHF patients.

Abstract
Venous return is the flow of blood from the systemic venous network towards the right heart. At steady state, venous return equals cardiac output, as the venous and arterial systems operate in series. However, unlike the arterial one, the venous network is a capacitive system with a high compliance. It includes a part of unstressed blood, which is a reservoir that can be recruited via sympathetic endogenous or exogenous stimulation. Guyton’s model describes the three determinants of venous return: the mean systemic filling pressure, the right atrial pressure and the resistance to venous return. Recently, new methods have been developed to explore such determinants at the bedside. In this narrative review, after a reminder about Guyton’s model and current methods used to investigate it, we emphasize how Guyton’s physiology helps understand the effects on cardiac output of common treatments used in critically ill patients.

Experimental validation of a mean systemic pressure analog against zero-flow measurements in porcine VA-ECMO. J Appl Physiol (1985) 2022; 132:726-736.

Abstract
The mean systemic pressure analog (Pmsa), calculated from running hemodynamic data, estimates mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP). This post hoc study used data from a porcine veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) model [n = 9; Sus scrofa domesticus; ES breed (Schweizer Edelschwein)] with eight experimental conditions; Euvolemia [a volume state where ECMO flow produced normal mixed venous saturation (SVO2) without vascular collapse]; three levels of increasing norepinephrine infusion (Vasoconstriction 1-3); status after stopping norepinephrine (Post Vasoconstriction); and three steps of volume expansion (10 mL/kg crystalloid bolus) (Volume Expansion 1-3). In each condition, Pmsa and a "reduced-pump-speed-Pmsa" (Pmsared) were calculated from baseline and briefly reduced pump speeds, respectively. We calculated agreement for absolute values (per condition) and changes (between consecutive conditions) of Pmsa and Pmsared, against MSFP at zero ECMO flow. Euvolemia venous return driving pressure was 5.1 ± 2.0 mmHg. Bland-Altman analysis for Pmsa vs. MSFP (all conditions; 72 data pairs) showed bias (confidence interval) 0.5 (0.1-0.9) mmHg; limits of agreement (LoA) -2.7 to 3.8 mmHg. Bias for ΔPmsa vs. ΔMSFP (63 data pairs): 0.2 (-0.2 to 0.6) mmHg, LoA -3.2 to 3.6 mmHg. Bias for Pmsared vs. MSFP (72 data pairs): 0.0 (-0.3 to -0.3) mmHg; LoA -2.3 to 2.4 mmHg. Bias for ΔPmsared vs. ΔMSFP (63 data pairs) was 0.2 (-0.1 to 0.4) mmHg; LoA -1.8 to 2.1 mmHg. In conclusion, during veno-arterial ECMO, under clinically relevant levels of vasoconstriction and volume expansion, Pmsa accurately estimated absolute and changing values of MSFP, with low between-method precision. The within-method precision of Pmsa was excellent, with a least significant change of 0.15 mmHg.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This is the first study ever to validate the mean systemic pressure analog (Pmsa) against the reference mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP) determined at full arterio-venous pressure equilibrium. Using a porcine ECMO model with clinically relevant levels of vasoconstriction and volume expansion, we showed that Pmsa accurately estimated absolute and changing values of MSFP, with a poor between-method precision. The within-method precision of Pmsa was excellent.

Abstract
Background: A decade ago, it became possible to derive mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP) at the bedside using the inspiratory hold maneuver. MSFP has the potential to help guide hemodynamic care, but the estimation is not yet implemented in common clinical practice. In this study, we assessed the ability of MSFP, vascular compliance (Csys), and stressed volume (Vs) to track fluid boluses. Second, we assessed the feasibility of implementation of MSFP in the intensive care unit (ICU). Exploratory, a potential difference in MSFP response between colloids and crystalloids was assessed. Methods: This was a prospective cohort study in adult patients admitted to the ICU after cardiac surgery. The MSFP was determined using 3-4 inspiratory holds with incremental pressures (maximum 35 cm H2O) to construct a venous return curve. Two fluid boluses were administered: 100 and 500 ml, enabling to calculate Vs and Csys. Patients were randomized to crystalloid or colloid fluid administration. Trained ICU consultants acted as study supervisors, and protocol deviations were recorded. Results: A total of 20 patients completed the trial. MSFP was able to track the 500 ml bolus (p < 0.001). In 16 patients (80%), Vs and Csys could be determined. Vs had a median of 2029 ml (IQR 1605-3164), and Csys had a median of 73 ml mmHg-1 (IQR 56-133). A difference in response between crystalloids and colloids was present for the 100 ml fluid bolus (p = 0.019) and in a post hoc analysis, also for the 500 ml bolus (p = 0.010). Conclusion: MSFP can be measured at the bedside and provides insights into the hemodynamic status of a patient that are currently missing. The clinical feasibility of Vs and Csys was judged ambiguously based on the lack of required hemodynamic stability. Future studies should address the clinical obstacles found in this study, and less-invasive alternatives to determine MSFP should be further explored.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of selective pulmonary vascular tone alterations on cardiac preload have not been previously examined. Therefore, we evaluated whether changing pulmonary vascular tone either by hypoxia or the inhalation of aerosolized prostacyclin (PGI2) altered intrathoracic or pulmonary blood volume (ITBV, PBV, respectively), both as surrogate for left ventricular preload. Additionally, the mean systemic filling pressure analogue (Pmsa) and pressure for venous return (Pvr) were calculated as surrogate of right ventricular preload. METHODS In a randomized controlled animal study in 6 spontaneously breathing dogs, pulmonary vascular tone was increased by controlled moderate hypoxia (FiO2 about 0.10) and decreased by aerosolized PGI2. Also, inhalation of PGI2 was instituted to induce pulmonary vasodilation during normoxia and hypoxia. PBV, ITBV and circulating blood volume (Vdcirc) were measured using transpulmonary thermo-dye dilution. Pmsa and Pvr were calculated post hoc. Either the Wilcoxon-signed rank test or Friedman ANOVA test was performed. RESULTS During hypoxia, mean pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) increased from median [IQR] 12 [8-15] to 19 [17-25] mmHg (p < 0.05). ITBV, PBV and their ratio with Vdcirc remained unaltered, which was also true for Pmsa, Pvr and cardiac output. PGI2 co-inhalation during hypoxia normalized mean PAP to 13 (12-16) mmHg (p < 0.05), but left cardiac preload surrogates unaltered. PGI2 inhalation during normoxia further decreased mean PAP to 10 (9-13) mmHg (p < 0.05) without changing any of the other investigated hemodynamic variables. CONCLUSIONS In spontaneously breathing dogs, changes in pulmonary vascular tone altered PAP but had no effect on cardiac output, central blood volumes or their relation to circulating blood volume, nor on Pmsa and Pvr. These observations suggest that cardiac preload is preserved despite substantial alterations in right ventricular afterload.

Abstract
Circulatory failure in sepsis is common and places a considerable burden on healthcare systems. It is associated with an increased likelihood of mortality, and timely recognition is a prerequisite to ensure optimum results. While there is consensus that aggressive source control, adequate antimicrobial therapy and hemodynamic management constitute crucial determinants of outcome, discussion remains about the best way to achieve each of these core principles. Sound cardiovascular support rests on tailored fluid resuscitation and vasopressor therapy. To this end, an overarching framework to improve cardiovascular dynamics has been a recurring theme in modern critical care. The object of this review is to examine the nature of one such framework that acknowledges the growing importance of adaptive hemodynamic support combining macro- and microhemodynamic variables to produce adequate tissue perfusion.

CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2021; 25:302. [PMID: 34419120 PMCID: PMC8379760 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-021-03711-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2021] [Accepted: 07/28/2021] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
Background Through venous contraction, norepinephrine (NE) increases stressed blood volume and mean systemic pressure (Pms) and exerts a “fluid-like” effect. When both fluid and NE are administered, Pms may not only result from the sum of the effects of both drugs. Indeed, norepinephrine may enhance the effects of volume expansion: because fluid dilutes into a more constricted, smaller, venous network, fluid may increase Pms to a larger extent at a higher than at a lower dose of NE. We tested this hypothesis, by mimicking the effects of fluid by passive leg raising (PLR). Methods In 30 septic shock patients, norepinephrine was decreased to reach a predefined target of mean arterial pressure (65–70 mmHg by default, 80–85 mmHg in previously hypertensive patients). We measured the PLR-induced increase in Pms (heart–lung interactions method) under high and low doses of norepinephrine. Preload responsiveness was defined by a PLR-induced increase in cardiac index ≥ 10%. Results Norepinephrine was decreased from 0.32 [0.18–0.62] to 0.26 [0.13–0.50] µg/kg/min (p < 0.0001). This significantly decreased the mean arterial pressure by 10 [7–20]% and Pms by 9 [4–19]%. The increase in Pms (∆Pms) induced by PLR was 13 [9–19]% at the higher dose of norepinephrine and 11 [6–16]% at the lower dose (p < 0.0001). Pms reached during PLR at the high dose of NE was higher than expected by the sum of Pms at baseline at low dose, ∆Pms induced by changing the norepinephrine dose and ∆Pms induced by PLR at low dose of NE (35.6 [11.2] mmHg vs. 33.6 [10.9] mmHg, respectively, p < 0.01). The number of preload responders was 8 (27%) at the high dose of NE and 15 (50%) at the low dose. Conclusions Norepinephrine enhances the Pms increase induced by PLR. These results suggest that a bolus of fluid of the same volume has a greater haemodynamic effect at a high dose than at a low dose of norepinephrine during septic shock.

Abstract
In standard critical care practice, cuff sphygmomanometry is widely used for intermittent blood pressure (BP) measurements. However, cuff devices offer ample possibility of modulating blood flow and pulse propagation along the artery. We explore underutilized arrangements of sensors involving cuff devices which could be of use in critical care to reveal additional information on compensatory mechanisms. In our previous work, we analyzed the response of the vasculature to occlusion perturbations by means of observations obtained non-invasively. In this study, our aim is to (1) acquire additional insights by means of invasive measurements and (2) based on these insights, further develop cuff-based measurement strategies. Invasive BP experimental data is collected downstream from the cuff in two patients monitored in the OR. It is found that highly dynamic processes occur in the distal arm during cuff inflation. Mean arterial pressure increases in the distal artery by 20 mmHg, leading to a decrease in pulse transit time by 20 ms. Previous characterizations neglected such distal vasculature effects. A model is developed to reproduce the observed behaviors and to provide a possible explanation of the factors that influence the distal arm mechanisms. We apply the new findings to further develop measurement strategies aimed at acquiring information on pulse arrival time vs. BP calibration, artery compliance, peripheral resistance, artery-vein interaction.

Abstract
Perioperative hemodynamic monitoring is an essential part of anesthetic care. In this review, we aim to give an overview of methods currently used in the clinical routine and experimental methods under development. The technical aspects of the mentioned methods are discussed briefly. This review includes methods to monitor blood pressures, for example, arterial pressure, mean systemic filling pressure and central venous pressure, and volumes, for example, global end-diastolic volume (GEDV) and extravascular lung water. In addition, monitoring blood flow (cardiac output) and fluid responsiveness (preload) will be discussed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study investigated the cardiovascular determinants of cardiac output (CO), mean systemic filling pressure analogue (Pmsa) derived by Geoffrey Parkin, efficiency of heart (Eh) and related parameters to a norepinephrine (NE) challenge [an increase of 10 mmHg mean arterial pressure (MAP) by NE] in septic shock patients using of a mathematical model. METHODS Twenty-seven septic shock patients with pulse index continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) monitoring were enrolled. These patients required NE to maintain an individualized MAP for organ perfusion after early fluid resuscitation based on their clinical condition. NE was decreased to obtain a decrease of 10 mmHg from base MAP (MAP-10mmHg), and the NE doses were adjusted to return MAP to baseline (MAPbase) and produce an increase of 10 mmHg from MAPbase (MAP+10mmHg). Two NE challenge episodes were analyzed for each patient: from MAP-10mmHg to MAPbase and from MAPbase to MAP+10mmHg. The Pmsa, pressure gradient for venous return (PGvr), and Eh (PGvr relative to Pmsa) were estimated using a mathematical model for the three MAP levels (MAP-10mmHg, MAPbase and MAP+10mmHg). RESULTS A total of 54 episodes of NE challenges were obtained in 27 patients. Significant and consistent increases were observed in the central venous pressure (CVP), Pmsa, and PGvr in response during the NE titration. ΔCO negatively and significantly correlated with ΔCVP (r=-0.722, P<0.0001), ΔPmsa (r=-0.549, P<0.0001), ΔResistance of venous return (Rvr) (r=-0.597, P<0.0001), and ΔResistance of systemic vascular beds (Rsys) (r=-0.597, P<0.0001). Episodes of decreasing CO/Eh were associated with a higher ΔCVP than the CO/Eh-increasing episodes. The area under the curve (AUC) of ΔCVP to predict decreased CO by the incremental NE was 0.86, and the AUC of ΔCVP to predict decreased Eh was 0.94. A cutoff of ΔCVP >1.5 mmHg for detecting decreased CO resulted in a sensitivity of 75% and a specificity of 94.1%. A cutoff of ΔCVP >1.5 mmHg for detecting decreased Eh resulted in a sensitivity of 64.3% and a specificity of 100%. CONCLUSIONS There were a highly divergent response in Eh and CO to afterload challenge episodes of an NE-induced 10mmHg increase in MAP. An increase in CVP may be an early alarm to identify the reduction in CO/Eh during an NE-induced increase of MAP.

Abstract
Mean systemic filling pressure (Pms) is a promising parameter in determining intravascular fluid status. Pms derived from venous return curves during inspiratory holds with incremental airway pressures (Pms-Insp) estimates Pms reliably but is labor-intensive. A computerized algorithm to calculate Pms (Pmsa) at the bedside has been proposed. In previous studies Pmsa and Pms-Insp correlated well but with considerable bias. This observational study was performed to validate Pmsa with Pms-Insp in cardiac surgery patients. Cardiac output, right atrial pressure and mean arterial pressure were prospectively recorded to calculate Pmsa using a bedside monitor. Pms-Insp was calculated offline after performing inspiratory holds. Intraclass-correlation coefficient (ICC) and assessment of agreement were used to compare Pmsa with Pms-Insp. Bias, coefficient of variance (COV), precision and limits of agreement (LOA) were calculated. Proportional bias was assessed with linear regression. A high degree of inter-method reliability was found between Pmsa and Pms-Insp (ICC 0.89; 95%CI 0.72–0.96, p = 0.01) in 18 patients. Pmsa and Pms-Insp differed not significantly (11.9 mmHg, IQR 9.8–13.4 vs. 12.7 mmHg, IQR 10.5–14.4, p = 0.38). Bias was −0.502 ± 1.90 mmHg (p = 0.277). COV was 4% with LOA –4.22 − 3.22 mmHg without proportional bias. Conversion coefficient Pmsa ➔ Pms-Insp was 0.94. This assessment of agreement demonstrates that the measures Pms-Insp and the computerized Pmsa-algorithm are interchangeable (bias −0.502 ± 1.90 mmHg with conversion coefficient 0.94). The choice of Pmsa is straightforward, it is non-interventional and available continuously at the bedside in contrast to Pms-Insp which is interventional and calculated off-line. Further studies should be performed to determine the place of Pmsa in the circulatory management of critically ill patients.

Neuman J, Schulz L, Aneman A. Associations between mean systemic filling pressure and acute kidney injury: An observational cohort study following cardiac surgery. Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 2021; 65:373-380.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Venous congestion has been implied in cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI). The mean systemic filling pressure may provide a physiologically more accurate estimate of renal venous pressure and renal perfusion pressure but its association with CSA-AKI has not been reported. METHODS Patients admitted to ICU following cardiac surgery without pre-operative renal dysfunction were included with monitoring of mean arterial pressure (MAP) and central venous pressure (CVP) and cardiac output (CO) to calculate the mean systemic filling pressure analogue (Pmsa ). The AKI-KDIGO guidelines were used to define CSA-AKI. Logistic regression models including CO, heart rate, MAP, CVP and Pmsa were used to ascertain the association with CSA-AKI and reported by odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95%CI) and area under the curve (AUROC). RESULTS One hundred and thirty patients (out of 221 screened) were included of whom 66 (51%) developed CSA-AKI. Patients with CSA-AKI were older, with greater weight and increased stay in ICU while the proportion of comorbidities, type of surgical procedures, APACHE III scores and fluid volumes administered were similar to patients without AKI. The Pmsa , but not CVP, was associated with CSA-AKI (OR 1.2 95%CI [1.16-1.25]). Renal perfusion pressure was associated with CSA-AKI estimated as MAP-Pmsa (OR 0.81 [0.76-0.86]) and MAP-CVP (OR 0.89 [0.85-0.93]) with the former generating a higher AUROC (median difference 0.10 [0.07-0.12], P < .001) in the regression model. CONCLUSIONS The Pmsa in post-operative cardiac surgery patients was associated with the development of CSA-AKI also when incorporated into estimates of renal perfusion pressure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The best strategy to identify patients in whom fluid loading increases cardiac output (CO) following cardiac surgery remains debated. This study examined the utility of a calculated mean systemic filling pressure analogue (Pmsa ) and derived variables to explain the response to a fluid bolus. METHODS The Pmsa was calculated using retrospective, observational cohort data in the early postoperative period between admission to the intensive care unit and extubation within 6 hours. The venous return pressure gradient (VRdP) was calculated as Pmsa - central venous pressure. Concurrent changes induced by a fluid bolus in the ratio of the VRdP over Pmsa , the volume efficiency (Evol ), were studied to assess fluid responsiveness. Changes between Pmsa and derived variables and CO were analysed by Wilcoxon rank-sum test, hierarchial clustering and multiple linear regression. RESULTS Data were analysed for 235 patients who received 489 fluid boluses. The Pmsa increased with consecutive fluid boluses (median difference [range] 1.3 [0.5-2.4] mm Hg, P = .03) with a corresponding increase in VRdP (median difference 0.4 [0.2-0.6] mm Hg, P = .04). Hierarchical cluster analysis only identified Evol and the change in CO within one cluster. The multiple linear regression between Pmsa and its derived variables and the change in CO (overall r2 = .48, P < .001) demonstrated the best partial regression between the continuous change in CO and the concurrent Evol (r = .55, P < .001). CONCLUSION The mean systemic filling Pmsa enabled a comprehensive interpretation of fluid responsiveness with volume efficiency useful to explain the change in CO as a continuous phenomenon.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To examine the effects of prone positioning on venous return and its determinants such as mean systemic pressure and venous return resistance in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. DESIGN Prospective monocentric study. SETTINGS A 25-bed medical ICU. PATIENTS About 22 patients with mild-to-severe acute respiratory distress syndrome in whom prone positioning was decided. INTERVENTIONS We obtained cardiac index, mean systemic pressure, and venous return resistance (the latter two estimated through the heart-lung interactions method) before and during prone positioning. Preload responsiveness was assessed at baseline using an end-expiratory occlusion test. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Prone positioning significantly increased mean systemic pressure (from 24 mm Hg [19-34 mm Hg] to 35 mm Hg [32-46 mm Hg]). This was partly due to the trunk lowering performed before prone positioning. In seven patients, prone positioning increased cardiac index greater than or equal to 15%. All were preload responsive. In these patients, prone positioning increased mean systemic pressure by 82% (76-95%), central venous pressure by 33% (21-59%), (mean systemic pressure - central venous pressure) gradient by 144% (83-215)%, while it increased venous return resistance by 71% (60-154%). In 15 patients, prone positioning did not increase cardiac index greater than or equal to 15%. In these patients, prone positioning increased mean systemic pressure by 28% (18-56%) (p < 0.05 vs. patients with significant increase in cardiac index), central venous pressure by 21% (7-54%), (mean systemic pressure - central venous pressure) gradient by 28% (23-86%), and venous return resistance by 37% (17-77%). Eleven of these 15 patients were preload unresponsive. CONCLUSIONS Prone positioning increased mean systemic pressure in all patients. The resulting change in cardiac index depended on the extent of increase in (mean systemic pressure - central venous pressure) gradient, of preload responsiveness, and of the increase in venous return resistance. Cardiac index increased only in preload-responsive patients if the increase in venous return resistance was lower than the increase in the (mean systemic pressure -central venous pressure) gradient.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the ability to predict central venous pressure by ultrasound measured inferior vena cava and aortic diameters in a PICU population and to assess interoperator concordance. DESIGN Noninterventional observational study. SETTING PICU of a tertiary-care academic center. PATIENTS Eighty-eight pediatric patients (0-16 yr old) with a central venous catheter in place were studied. Sixty-nine percent of the patients received positive-pressure ventilation. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS An experienced and a nonexperienced operator used ultrasound to measure the maximal diameter of inferior vena cava and minimal diameter of the inferior vena cava and the maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta from the subxiphoid window. The inferior vena cava collapsibility index and the ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta were then derived. The central venous pressure was measured using a central venous catheter and recorded. Twenty-three patients had low central venous pressure values (≤ 4 mm Hg), 35 patients a value in the range of 5-9 mm Hg, and 30 patients high values (≥ 10 mm Hg). Both inferior vena cava collapsibility index and ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta were predictive of high (≥ 10 mm Hg) or low (≤ 4 mm Hg) central venous pressure. The test accuracy showed the best results in predicting low central venous pressure with an inferior vena cava collapsibility index greater than or equal to 35% and ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta less than or equal to 0.8, and in predicting high central venous pressure with an inferior vena cava collapsibility index less than or equal to 20% and ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta greater than or equal to 1.3. Inferior vena cava collapsibility index returned generally higher accuracy values than ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta. Lin's coefficient of concordance between the operators was 0.78 for inferior vena cava collapsibility index and 0.86 for ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta. CONCLUSIONS Inferior vena cava collapsibility index and ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta correlate well with central venous pressure measurements in this PICU population, and specific inferior vena cava collapsibility index or ratio of maximal diameter of inferior vena cava/maximum diameter of the abdominal aorta thresholds appear to be able to differentiate children with high or low central venous pressure. However, the actual clinical application of these statistically significant results remains limited, especially by the intrinsic flaws of the procedure.

Abstract
Background The upstream pressure for venous return (VR) is considered to be a combined conceptual blood pressure of the systemic vessels: the mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP). The relevance of estimating the MSFP during dynamic changes of the circulation at the bedside is controversial. Herein, we studied the effect of high ventilatory pressures on the relationship between VR and central venous pressure (CVP). Methods In 9 healthy pigs under anaesthesia and mechanically ventilated, MSFP was estimated from extrapolated VR versus CVP relationships during inspiratory hold maneuvers (IHMs) with different levels of ventilatory pressure (Pvent). MSFP was measure 3 times per animal during euvolemia and hypovolemia. Hypovolemia was induced by bleeding with 10 mL/kg. The estimated MSFP values were compared to the blood pressure recording after induced ventricle fibrillation (i.e., mean circulatory filling pressure). Results Our results revealed a strong linear correlation between VR and CVP [R2 of 0.92 (range, 0.67–0.99)], during IHMs with different levels of Pvent. Volume status significantly alters the resulting MSFP, 20±1 and 16±2 mmHg for euvolemia and hypovolemia respectively. This estimation of the MSFP was strongly correlated—but not interchangeable—to the blood pressure recording after induced ventricle fibrillation (R2=0.8 and P=0.045). Conclusions In conclusion, we showed a strong linear correlation between VR and CVP—when applying IHMs with high levels of Pvent—however the clinical applicability of this method to guide volume therapy in its current form is improbable.

Abstract
The mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP) represents an interaction between intravascular volume and global cardiovascular compliance (GCC). Intravascular volume expansion using fluid resuscitation is the most frequent intervention in intensive care and emergency medicine for patients in shock and with haemodynamic compromise. The relationship between dynamic changes in MSFP, GCC and left ventricular compliance is unknown. We conducted prospective interventional pilot study following euthanasia in post cardiotomy adult sheep, investigating the relationships between changes in MSFP induced by rapid intravascular filling with fluids, global cardiovascular compliance and left ventricular compliance. This pilot investigation suggested a robust correlation between a gradual increase in the intravascular stressed volume from 0 to 40 ml/kg and the MSFP r = 0.708 95% CI 0.435 to 0.862, making feasible future prospective interventional studies. Based on the statistical modelling from the pilot results, we expect to identify a strong correlation of 0.71 ± 0.1 (95% CI) between the MSFP and the stressed intravascular volume in a future study.

Abstract
Potentially, mean circulatory filling pressure (Pmcf) could aid hemodynamic management in patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU). However, data regarding the normal range for Pmcf do not exist challenging its clinical use. We aimed to define the range for Pmcf for ICU patients and also calculated in what percentage of cases equilibrium between arterial blood pressure (ABP) and central venous pressure (CVP) was reached. In patients in whom no equilibrium was reached, we corrected for arterial-to-venous compliance differences. Finally, we studied the influence of patient characteristics on Pmcf. We hypothesized fluid balance, the use of vasoactive medication, being on mechanical ventilation, and the level of positive end-expiratory pressure would be positively associated with Pmcf. We retrospectively studied a cohort of 311 patients that had cardiac arrest in ICU while having active recording of ABP and CVP 1 min after death. Median Pmcf was 15 mmHg [interquartile range (IQR) 12-18]. ABP and CVP reached an equilibrium state in 52% of the cases. Correction for arterial-to-venous compliances differences resulted in a maximum alteration of 1.3 mmHg in Pmcf. Fluid balance over the last 24 h, the use of vasoactive medication, and being on mechanical ventilation were associated with a higher Pmcf. Median Pmcf was 15 mmHg (IQR 12-18). When ABP remained higher than CVP, correction for arterial-to-venous compliance differences did not result in a clinically relevant alteration of Pmcf. Pmcf was affected by factors known to alter vasomotor tone and effective circulating blood volume.NEW & NOTEWORTHY In a cohort of 311 intensive care unit (ICU) patients, median mean circulatory filling pressure (Pmcf) measured after cardiac arrest was 15 mmHg (interquartile range 12-18). In 48% of cases, arterial blood pressure remained higher than central venous pressure, but correction for arterial-to-venous compliance differences did not result in clinically relevant alterations of Pmcf. Fluid balance, use of vasopressors or inotropes, and being on mechanical ventilation were associated with a higher Pmcf.

Abstract
This article describes the modified arterial reservoir in detail. The modified arterial reservoir makes explicit the wave nature of both reservoir (Pres) and excess pressure (Pxs). The mathematical derivation and methods for estimating Pres in the absence of flow velocity data are described. There is also discussion of zero-flow pressure (Pzf), the pressure at which flow through the circulation ceases; its relationship to asymptotic pressure (P∞) estimated by the reservoir model; and the physiological interpretation of Pzf . A systematic review and meta-analysis provides evidence that Pzf differs from mean circulatory filling pressure.

Abstract
Echocardiographic measurements are used in critical care to evaluate volume status and cardiac performance. Mean systemic filling pressure and global heart efficiency measures intravascular volume and global heart function. This prospective study conducted in fifty haemodynamically stabilized, mechanically ventilated patients investigated relationships between static echocardiographic variables and estimates of global heart efficiency and mean systemic filling pressure. Results of univariate analysis demonstrated weak correlations between left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (r = 0.27, p = 0.04), right atrial volume index (rho = 0.31, p = 0.03) and analogue mean systemic filling pressure; moderate correlations between left ventricular ejection fraction (r = 0.31, p = 0.03), left ventricular global longitudinal strain (r = 0.36, p = 0.04), tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (rho = 0.37, p = 0.01) and global heart efficiency. No significant correlations were demonstrated by multiple regression. Mean systemic filling pressure calculated with cardiac output measured by echocardiography demonstrated good agreement and correlation with invasive techniques (bias 0.52 ± 1.7 mmHg, limits of agreement -2.9 to 3.9 mmHg, r = 0.9, p < 0.001). Static echocardiographic variables did not reliably reflect the volume state as defined by estimates of mean systemic filling pressure. The agreement between static echocardiographic variables of cardiac performance and global heart efficiency lacked robustness. Echocardiographic measurements of cardiac output can be reliably used in calculation of mean systemic filling pressure.

Abstract
More than sixty years ago, Guyton and coworkers related their observations of venous return to a mathematical model. Showing steady-state flow (F) as proportional to the difference between mean systemic pressure (Pms) and right atrial pressure (Pra), the model fit their data. The parameter defined by the ratio (Pms - Pra)/F, first called an "impedance," came to be called the "resistance to venous return." The interpretation that Pra opposes Pms and that, to increase output, the heart must act to reduce back pressure at the right atrium was widely accepted. Today, the perceived importance of Pms is evident in the efforts to find reliable ways to estimate it in patients. This article reviews concepts about venous return, criticizing some as inconsistent with elementary physical principles. After review of basic background topics-the steady-state vascular compliance; stressed versus unstressed volume-simulations from a multicompartment model based on data and definitions from Rothe's classical review of the venous system are presented. They illustrate the obligatory connection between flow-dependent compartment pressures and the distribution of volume among vascular compartments. An appendix shows that the pressure profile can be expressed either as decrements relative to arterial pressure or as increments relative to Pra (the option taken in the original model). Conclusion: The (Pms - Pra)/F formulation was never about Pms physically driving venous return; it was about how intravascular volume distributes among compliant compartments in accordance with their flow-dependent distending pressures, arbitrarily expressed relative to Pra rather than arterial pressure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Expansion of the intravascular compartment is common to treat haemodynamic instability in ICU patients. The most useful and accurate variables to guide and evaluate a fluid challenge remain debated and incompletely investigated resulting in significant variability in practice. The analogue mean systemic pressure has been reported as a measure of the intravascular volume state. METHODS This is a protocol and statistical analysis plan for a review of the application of an analogue of the mean systemic pressure and the use of derived variables to assess the volume state and volume responsiveness. A pulmonary artery catheter was used in 286 postoperative cardiac surgical patients to monitor cardiac output before and after a fluid bolus in addition to arterial and central venous pressures. With otherwise similar monitoring, echocardiography was used in 540 general ICU patients to determine cardiac outputs and indices related to intravascular filling. The responses to a fluid bolus or the passive leg raising manoeuvre will be investigated using continuous and dichotomous definitions of volume responsiveness. The results will be stratified according to the method of monitoring cardiac output. CONCLUSIONS This study investigating 2 cohorts that encompass a wide variety of reasons for haemodynamic instability will illustrate the applicability of the analogue mean systemic pressure and derived variables to assess the volume state and responsiveness. The results may guide the rationale and design of interventional studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The distending intravascular pressure at no flow conditions reflects the stressed volume. While this haemodynamic variable is recognised as clinically important, there is a paucity of reports of its range and responsiveness to volume expansion in patients without cardiovascular disease and no reports of correlations to echocardiographic assessments of left ventricular filling. METHODS Twenty-seven awake (13 male), spontaneously breathing patients without any history of cardiopulmonary, vascular or renal disease were studied prior to induction of anaesthesia. The no-flow equilibrium pressure in the arm following rapid circulatory occlusion (Parm ) was measured via a radial arterial catheter. Transthoracic echocardiography was used to measure left ventricular end diastolic area and volume as well as the diameter of the inferior vena cava. The Parm and echocardiographic variables were measured before and after administration of 500 mL 0.9% NaCl over 10 minutes. Changes were analysed by paired t test, Pearson's correlation and multiple linear regression. RESULTS Parm increased overall from 22 ± 5 mm Hg to 25 ± 6 mm Hg (mean difference 3.0 ± 4.5 mm Hg, P = 0.002) following the fluid bolus with corresponding increases in arterial pressure and echocardiographic variables. Variability in the direction of the Parm response reflected concomitant changes in vascular compliance. Only weak correlations were observed between changes in Parm and inferior vena cava diameter indexed to body surface area (R2 = 0.29, P = 0.01). CONCLUSION Preoperative measurements of Parm increased following acute expansion of the intravascular volume. Echocardiography demonstrated poor correlation with Parm .

Abstract
Background Recent studies in haemodynamic management have focused on fluid management and assessed its effects in terms of increase in cardiac output based on fluid challenges or variations in pulse pressure caused by cyclical positive pressure ventilation. The theoretical scope may be characterised as Starling-oriented. This approach ignores the actual events of right-sided excitation and left-sided response which is consistently described in a Guyton-oriented model of the cardiovascular system. Aim Based on data from a previous study, we aim to elucidate the primary response to crystalloid and colloid fluids in terms of cardiac output, mean blood pressure and right atrial pressure as well as derived and efficiency variables defined in terms of Guyton venous return physiology. Method Re-analyses of previously published data. Results Cardiac output invariably increased on infusion of crystalloid and colloid solutions, whereas static and dynamic efficiency measures declined in spite of increasing pressure gradient for venous return. Discussion We argue that primary as well as derived and efficiency measures should be reported and discussed when haemodynamic studies are reported involving fluid administrations.

Abstract
Various methods for indirect assessment of mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP) produce controversial results compared with MSFP at zero blood flow. We recently reported that the difference between MSFP at zero flow measured by right atrial balloon occlusion (MSFPRAO) and MSFP estimated using inspiratory holds depends on the volume status. We now compare three indirect estimates of MSFP with MSFPRAO in euvolemia, bleeding, and hypervolemia in a model of anesthetized pigs (n = 9) with intact circulation. MSFP was estimated using instantaneous beat-to-beat venous return during tidal ventilation (MSFPinst_VR), right atrial pressure-flow data pairs at flow nadir during inspiratory holds (MSFPnadir_hold), and a dynamic model analog adapted to pigs (MSFPa). MSFPRAO was underestimated by MSFPnadir_hold and MSFPa in all volume states. Volume status modified the difference between MSFPRAO and all indirect methods (method × volume state interaction, P ≤ 0.020). All methods tracked changes in MSFPRAO concordantly, with the lowest bias seen for MSFPa [bias (confidence interval): -0.4 (-0.7 to -0.0) mmHg]. We conclude that indirect estimates of MSFP are unreliable in this experimental setup. NEW & NOTEWORTHY For indirect estimations of MSFP using inspiratory hold maneuvers, instantaneous beat-to-beat venous return, or a dynamic model analog, the accuracy was affected by the underlying volume state. All methods investigated tracked changes in MSFPRAO concordantly.

Abstract
Venous return, i.e., the blood flowing back to the heart, is driven by the pressure difference between mean systemic filling pressure and right atrial pressure (RAP). Besides cardiac function, it is the major determinant of cardiac output. Mean systemic filling pressure is a function of the vascular volume. The concept of venous return has a central role for heart lung interactions and the explanation of shock states. Mechanical ventilation during anaesthesia and critical illness may severely affect venous return by different mechanisms. In the first part of the following article, we will discuss the development of the concept of venous return, its specific components mean systemic and mean circulatory filling pressure (MCFP), RAP and resistance to venous return (RVR). We show how these pressures relate to the volume state of the circulation. Various interpretations and critiques are elucidated. In the second part, we focus on the impact of positive pressure ventilation on venous return and its components, including latest results from latest research.

Abstract
The bedside hemodynamic assessment of the critically ill remains challenging since blood volume, arterial–venous interaction and compliance are not measured directly. Mean circulatory filling pressure (Pmcf) is the blood pressure throughout the vascular system at zero flow. Animal studies have shown Pmcf provides information on vascular compliance, volume responsiveness and enables the calculation of stressed volume. It is now possible to measure Pmcf at the bedside. We performed a systematic review of the current Pmcf measurement techniques and compared their clinical applicability, precision, accuracy and limitations. A comprehensive search strategy was performed in PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane databases. Studies measuring Pmcf in heart-beating patients at the bedside were included. Data were extracted from the articles into predefined forms. Quality assessment was based on the Newcastle–Ottawa Scale for cohort studies. A total of 17 prospective cohort studies were included. Three techniques were described: Pmcf hold, based on inspiratory hold-derived venous return curves, Pmcf arm, based on arterial and venous pressure equilibration in the arm as a model for the entire circulation, and Pmcf analogue, based on a Guytonian mathematical model of the circulation. The included studies show Pmcf to accurately follow intravascular fluid administration and vascular compliance following drug-induced hemodynamic changes. Bedside Pmcf measures allow for more direct assessment of circulating blood volume, venous return and compliance. However, studies are needed to determine normative Pmcf values and their expected changes to therapies if they are to be used to guide clinical practice.

Abstract
Background Keeping adequate tissue perfusion during high-risk abdominal surgery is of utmost importance to decrease postoperative complications. The objective was to investigate the alteration in mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP), venous return (VR) and sublingual microcirculation during pneumoperitoneum and steep reverse-Trendelenburg position during thoracolaparoscopic esophagectomy. Methods This is a single-center prospective observational study in operating room at a university hospital. Eleven consecutive patients undergoing minimally invasive esophagectomy. Intraoperative hemodynamic and sublingual microcirculatory variables were simultaneously measured within 5 minutes at the following time points: T1, baseline supine position before the start of surgery; T2, pneumoperitoneum in supine position; T3, steep reverse-Trendelenburg position after the pneumoperitoneum. The cardiac output (CO) was obtained with continuous pulse contour waveform-derived measurements, and the MSFP was estimated with the analogue method. Results The pneumoperitoneum and reverse-Trendelenburg caused an increase in stroke volume variation (SVV), MSFP and central venous pressure (CVP), and a decrease in the microcirculatory perfusion index (MFI, <0.05). However, changes in CO, pressure gradient of VR, resistance of VR and blood pressure were not consistent and did not differ significantly across timepoints. Moreover, MFI is significantly related to CVP and MSFP but not to CO and blood pressure (BP). Measurements with MFI ≤2 have a higher CVP and MSFP compared to those with MFI >2. Using a CVP ≥23 mmHg to detect MFI ≤2 results in a sensitivity of 61.54% and a specificity of 100%. Conclusions A high CVP is related to poor microcirculatory flow perfusion even if the macrocirculation has been maintained during pneumoperitoneum.

Phenylephrine increases cardiac output by raising cardiac preload in patients with anesthesia induced hypotension. J Clin Monit Comput 2018; 32:969-976.

Abstract
Induction of general anesthesia frequently induces arterial hypotension, which is often treated with a vasopressor, such as phenylephrine. As a pure α-agonist, phenylephrine is conventionally considered to solely induce arterial vasoconstriction and thus increase cardiac afterload but not cardiac preload. In specific circumstances, however, phenylephrine may also contribute to an increase in venous return and thus cardiac output (CO). The aim of this study is to describe the initial time course of the effects of phenylephrine on various hemodynamic variables and to evaluate the ability of advanced hemodynamic monitoring to quantify these changes through different hemodynamic variables. In 24 patients, after induction of anesthesia, during the period before surgical stimulus, phenylephrine 2 µg kg-1 was administered when the MAP dropped below 80% of the awake state baseline value for > 3 min. The mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), end-tidal CO2 (EtCO2), central venous pressure (CVP), stroke volume (SV), CO, pulse pressure variation (PPV), stroke volume variation (SVV) and systemic vascular resistance (SVR) were recorded continuously. The values at the moment before administration of phenylephrine and 5(T5) and 10(T10) min thereafter were compared. After phenylephrine, the mean(SD) MAP, SV, CO, CVP and EtCO2 increased by 34(13) mmHg, 11(9) mL, 1.02(0.74) L min-1, 3(2.6) mmHg and 4.0(1.6) mmHg at T5 respectively, while both dynamic preload variables decreased: PPV dropped from 20% at baseline to 9% at T5 and to 13% at T10 and SVV from 19 to 11 and 14%, respectively. Initially, the increase in MAP was perfectly aligned with the increase in SVR, until 150 s after the initial increase in MAP, when both curves started to dissociate. The dissociation of the evolution of MAP and SVR, together with the changes in PPV, CVP, EtCO2 and CO indicate that in patients with anesthesia-induced hypotension, phenylephrine increases the CO by virtue of an increase in cardiac preload.

Abstract
To assess the significance of an analogue of the mean systemic filling pressure (Pmsa) and its derived variables, in providing a physiology based discrimination between responders and non-responders to fluid resuscitation during liver surgery. A post-hoc analysis of data from 30 patients undergoing major hepatic surgery was performed. Patients received 15 ml kg-1 fluid in 30 min. Fluid responsiveness (FR) was defined as an increase of 20% or greater in cardiac index, measured by FloTrac-Vigileo®. Dynamic preload variables (pulse pressure variation and stroke volume variation: PPV, SVV) were recorded additionally. Pvr, the driving pressure for venous return (=Pmsa-central venous pressure) and heart performance (EH; Pvr/Pmsa) were calculated according to standard formula. Pmsa increased following fluid administration in responders (n = 18; from 13 ± 3 to 17 ± 4 mmHg, p < 0.01) and in non-responders (n = 12; from 14 ± 4 to 17 ± 4 mmHg, p < 0.01). Pvr, which was lower in responders before fluid administration (6 ± 1 vs. 7 ± 1 mmHg; p = 0.02), increased after fluid administration only in responders (from 6 ± 1 to 8 ± 1 mmHg; p < 0.01). EH only decreased in non-responders (from 0.56 ± 0.17 to 0.45 ± 0.12; p < 0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of Pvr, PPV and SVV for predicting FR was 0.75, 0.73 and 0.72, respectively. Changes in Pmsa, Pvr and EH reflect changes in effective circulating volume and heart performance following fluid resuscitation, providing a physiologic discrimination between responders and non-responders. Also, Pvr predicts FR equivalently compared to PPV and SVV, and might therefore aid in predicting FR in case dynamic preload variables cannot be used.

Abstract
Maintenance of neonatal circulatory homeostasis is a real challenge, due to the complex physiology during postnatal transition and the inherent immaturity of the cardiovascular system and other relevant organs. It is known that abnormal cardiovascular function during the neonatal period is associated with increased risk of severe morbidity and mortality. Understanding the functional and structural characteristics of the neonatal circulation is, therefore, essential, as therapeutic hemodynamic interventions should be based on the assumed underlying (patho)physiology. The clinical assessment of systemic blood flow (SBF) by indirect parameters, such as blood pressure, capillary refill time, heart rate, urine output, and central-peripheral temperature difference is inaccurate. As blood pressure is no surrogate for SBF, information on cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance should be obtained in combination with an evaluation of end organ perfusion. Accurate and reliable hemodynamic monitoring systems are required to detect inadequate tissue perfusion and oxygenation at an early stage before this result in irreversible damage. Also, the hemodynamic response to the initiated treatment should be re-evaluated regularly as changes in cardiovascular function can occur quickly. New insights in the understanding of neonatal cardiovascular physiology are reviewed and several methods for current and future neonatal hemodynamic monitoring are discussed.

Abstract
Mean systemic filling pressure (Pms) defines the pressure measured in the venous-arterial system when the cardiac output is nil. Its estimation has been proposed in patients with beating hearts by building the venous return curve, using different pairs of right atrial pressure/cardiac output during mechanical ventilation. We raised the hypothesis according to which the Pms is altered by tidal ventilation and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), which would challenge this extrapolation method based on cardiopulmonary interactions. We conducted a two-center, noninterventional, observational, and prospective study, using an arterial and a venous catheter to measure the pressure in the circulatory system at the time of death in critically ill, mechanically ventilated patients with a PEEP. Arterial (Part) and venous pressures (Pra) were recorded in five conditions: at end expiration and end inspiration with and without PEEP and finally once the ventilator was disconnected. Part and Pra did not differ in any experimental conditions. Tidal ventilation increased Pra and Part by 2.4 and 1.9 mmHg, respectively, whereas PEEP increased both values by 1.2 and 1 mmHg, respectively. After disconnection of the ventilator, Pra and Part were 10.0 ± 4.2 and 9.9 ± 4.2 mmHg, respectively. Pms increases during mechanical ventilation, with an effect of tidal ventilation and PEEP. This calls into question the validity of its evaluation in heart-beating patients using cardiopulmonary interactions during mechanical ventilation.NEW & NOTEWORTHY The physiology of the mean systemic filling pressure (Pms) is not well understood in human beings. This study is the first report of a tidal ventilation- and positive end-expiratory pressure-related increase in Pms in critically ill patients. The results challenge the utility and the value estimating Pms in heart-beating patients by reconstruction of the venous return curve using varying inflation pressures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Elevated central venous pressure is a major cause of morbidity and mortality after the Fontan operation. The difference between mean circulatory filling pressure and central venous pressure, a driving force of venous return, is important in determining dynamic changes in central venous pressure in response to changes in ventricular properties or loading conditions. Thus, noninvasive central venous pressure and mean circulatory filling pressure estimation may contribute to optimal management in patients undergoing the Fontan operation. We tested the hypothesis that central venous pressure and mean circulatory filling pressure in those undergoing the Fontan operation can be simply estimated using peripheral venous pressure and arm equilibrium pressure, respectively. METHODS This study included 30 patients after the Fontan operation who underwent cardiac catheterization (median 8.6, 3.4-42 years). Peripheral venous pressure was measured at the peripheral vein in the upper extremities. Mean circulatory filling pressure was calculated by the changes of arterial pressure and central venous pressure during the Valsalva maneuver. Arm equilibrium pressure was measured as equilibrated venous pressure by rapidly inflating a blood pressure cuff to 200 mm Hg. RESULTS Central venous pressure and peripheral venous pressure were highly correlated (central venous pressure = 1.6 + 0.68 × peripheral venous pressure, R = 0.86, P < .0001). Stepwise multivariable regression analysis showed that only peripheral venous pressure was a significant determinant of central venous pressure. Central venous pressure was accurately estimated using regression after volume loading by contrast injection (R = 0.82, P < .0001). In addition, arm equilibrium pressure measurements were highly reproducible and robustly reflected invasively measured mean circulatory filling pressure (mean circulatory filling pressure = 9.1 + 0.63 × arm equilibrium pressure, R = 0.88, P < .0001). CONCLUSIONS Central venous pressure and mean circulatory filling pressure can be noninvasively estimated by peripheral venous pressure and arm equilibrium pressure, respectively. This should help clarify unidentified Fontan pathophysiology and the mechanisms of Fontan failure progression, thereby helping construct effective tailor-made approaches to prevent Fontan failure.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Central venous pressure (CVP) alone has so far not found a place in outcome prediction or prediction of fluid responsiveness. Improved understanding of the interaction between mean systemic pressure (Pms) and CVP has major implications for evaluating volume responsiveness, heart performance and potentially patient outcomes. RECENT FINDINGS The literature review substantiates that CVP plays a decisive role in causation of operative haemorrhage and renal failure. The review details CVP as a variable integral to cardiovascular control in its dual role of distending the diastolic right ventricle and opposing venous return. SUMMARY The implication for practice is in the regulation of the circulation. It is demonstrated that control of the blood pressure and cardiac output/venous return calls upon regulation of the volume state (Pms), the heart performance (Eh) and the systemic vascular resistance. Knowledge of the CVP is required to calculate all three.

Abstract
According to Guyton's model of circulation, mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP), right atrial pressure (RAP), and resistance to venous return (RVR) determine venous return. MSFP has been estimated from inspiratory hold-induced changes in RAP and blood flow. We studied the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and blood volume on venous return and MSFP in pigs. MSFP was measured by balloon occlusion of the right atrium (MSFPRAO), and the MSFP obtained via extrapolation of pressure-flow relationships with airway occlusion (MSFPinsp_hold) was extrapolated from RAP/pulmonary artery flow (QPA) relationships during inspiratory holds at PEEP 5 and 10 cmH2O, after bleeding, and in hypervolemia. MSFPRAO increased with PEEP [PEEP 5, 12.9 (SD 2.5) mmHg; PEEP 10, 14.0 (SD 2.6) mmHg, P = 0.002] without change in QPA [2.75 (SD 0.43) vs. 2.56 (SD 0.45) l/min, P = 0.094]. MSFPRAO decreased after bleeding and increased in hypervolemia [10.8 (SD 2.2) and 16.4 (SD 3.0) mmHg, respectively, P < 0.001], with parallel changes in QPA. Neither PEEP nor volume state altered RVR ( P = 0.489). MSFPinsp_hold overestimated MSFPRAO [16.5 (SD 5.8) vs. 13.6 (SD 3.2) mmHg, P = 0.001; mean difference 3.0 (SD 5.1) mmHg]. Inspiratory holds shifted the RAP/QPA relationship rightward in euvolemia because inferior vena cava flow (QIVC) recovered early after an inspiratory hold nadir. The QIVC nadir was lowest after bleeding [36% (SD 24%) of preinspiratory hold at 15 cmH2O inspiratory pressure], and the QIVC recovery was most complete at the lowest inspiratory pressures independent of volume state [range from 80% (SD 7%) after bleeding to 103% (SD 8%) at PEEP 10 cmH2O of QIVC before inspiratory hold]. The QIVC recovery thus defends venous return, possibly via hepatosplanchnic vascular waterfall.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to describe the pharmacodynamics of a fluid challenge over a 10-minute period in postoperative patients. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING General and cardiothoracic ICU, tertiary hospital. PATIENTS Twenty-six postoperative patients. INTERVENTION Two hundred and fifty-milliliter fluid challenge performed over 5 minutes. Data were recorded over 10 minutes after the end of fluid infusion MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Cardiac output was measured with a calibrated LiDCOplus (LiDCO, Cambridge, United Kingdom) and Navigator (Applied Physiology, Sydney, Australia) to obtain the Pmsf analogue (Pmsa). Pharmacodynamics outcomes were modeled using a Bayesian inferential approach and Markov chain Monte Carlo estimation methods. Parameter estimates were summarized as the means of their posterior distributions, and their uncertainty was assessed by the 95% credible intervals. Bayesian probabilities for groups' effect were also derived. The predicted maximal effect on cardiac output was observed at 1.2 minutes (95% credible interval, -0.6 to 2.8 min) in responders. The probability that the estimated area under the curve of central venous pressure was smaller in nonresponders was 0.12. (estimated difference, -4.91 mm Hg·min [95% credible interval, -13.45 to 3.3 mm Hg min]). After 10 minutes, there is no evidence of a difference between groups for any hemodynamic variable. CONCLUSIONS The maximal change in cardiac output should be assessed 1 minute after the end of the fluid infusion. The global effect of the fluid challenge on central venous pressure is greater in nonresponders, but not the change observed 10 minutes after the fluid infusion. The effect of a fluid challenge on hemodynamics is dissipated in 10 minutes similarly in both groups.

Abstract
The oesophageal Doppler (OD) is a minimally invasive haemodynamic monitor used in the surgical theatre and the ICU. Using the OD, goal-directed therapy (GDT) has been shown to reduce perioperative complications in high-risk surgical patients. However, most GDT protocols currently in use are limited to stroke volume optimisation. In the present manuscript, we examine the conceptual models behind new OD-based measurements. These would provide the clinician with a comprehensive view of haemodynamic pathophysiology; including pre-load, contractility, and afterload. Specifically, volume status could be estimated using mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP), the pressure to which all intravascular pressures equilibrate during asystole. Using the OD, MSFP could be readily estimated by simultaneous measurements of aortic blood flow and arterial pressure with sequential manoeuvres of increasing airway pressure. This would result in subsequent reductions in cardiac output and arterial pressure and would allow for a linear extrapolation of a static MSFP value to a "zero flow" state. In addition, we also demonstrate that EF is proportional to mean blood flow velocity measured in the descending thoracic aorta with the OD. Furthermore, OD-derived indexes of blood flow velocity and acceleration, as well as force and kinetic energy, can be derived and used for continuous assessment of cardiac contractility at the bedside. Using OD-derived parameters, the different components of afterload: inertia, resistance and elastance, could also be individually determined. The integration of these additional haemodynamic parameters could assist the clinician in optimising and individualising haemodynamic performance in unstable patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Effective treatment for many congenital heart diseases diagnosed before birth has become available since the last three decades. Continuous improvements in surgical knowledge and techniques have allowed patients born with severe heart defects to survive through adulthood. However, palliative surgery often implies profound modifications of classical circulatory physiology, which must be taken into account particularly when general anesthesia is needed for major noncardiac surgery. Among the palliative surgeries, Fontan repair is an intervention aiming at excluding the right heart chambers with a total cavopulmonary conduit, which directs blood flow from both inferior and superior vena cavae directly to the right pulmonary artery. In such condition, patients are very sensitive to both preload reduction and pulmonary vascular resistances increase, so that a careful monitoring during anesthesia is required. Unfortunately, standard monitoring with a pulmonary artery catheter is not possible because of altered anatomy of right sections. In this case scenario, the authors report the perioperative management of a young woman who underwent major gynecologic surgery, who was managed using a transpulmonary thermodilution technique that was deemed more accurate than noncalibrated pulse-contour method and also able to provide more information regarding preload status. The authors adopted an integrated approach merging together hemodynamic and functional data (ScvO2 and venoarterial CO2 difference) to assess the appropriateness of hemodynamic management. The authors describe also pathophysiologic changes during such condition and also potential drawbacks of chosen technique.
