Carotid blood flow changes following a simulated end-inspiratory occlusion maneuver measured by ultrasound can predict hypotension after the induction of general anesthesia: an observational study. BMC Anesthesiol 2024; 24:13. [PMID: 38172775 PMCID: PMC10763470 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-023-02393-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The primary purpose of this study was to investigate the predictive value of alterations in cervical artery hemodynamic parameters induced by a simulated end-inspiratory occlusion test (sEIOT) measured by ultrasound for predicting postinduction hypotension (PIH) during general anesthesia. METHODS Patients undergoing gastrointestinal tumor resection under general anesthesia were selected for this study. Ultrasound has been utilized to assess hemodynamic parameters in carotid artery blood flow before induction, specifically focusing on variations in corrected flow time (ΔFTc) and peak blood flow velocity (ΔCDPV), both before and after sEIOT. Anesthesia was induced by midazolam, sufentanil, propofol, and rocuronium, and blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) were recorded within the first 10 min following endotracheal intubation. PIH was defined as fall in systolic blood pressure (SBP) or mean arterial pressure (MAP) by > 30% of baseline or MAP to < 60 mm Hg. RESULTS The area under the receiver operating characteristic curves (AUC) for carotid artery ΔFTc was 0.88 (95%CI, 0.81 to 0.96; P < 0.001), and the optimal cutoff value was -16.57%, with a sensitivity of 91.4% and specificity of 77.60%. The gray zone for carotid artery ΔFTc was -16.34% to -15.36% and included 14% of the patients. The AUC for ΔCDPV was 0.54, with an optimal cutoff value of -1.47%. The sensitivity and specificity were calculated as 55.20% and 57.10%, respectively. CONCLUSION The corrected blood flow time changes in the carotid artery induced by sEIOT can predict hypotension following general anesthesia-induced hypotension, wherein ΔFTc less than 16.57% is the threshold.

Can carotid artery Doppler variations induced by the end-expiratory occlusion maneuver predict fluid responsiveness in septic shock patients? Crit Care 2023; 27:153. [PMID: 37076861 PMCID: PMC10116770 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-023-04422-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/30/2023] [Indexed: 04/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND An increase in cardiac index (CI) during an end-expiratory occlusion test (EEOt) predicts fluid responsiveness in ventilated patients. However, if CI monitoring is unavailable or the echocardiographic window is difficult, using the carotid Doppler (CD) could be a feasible alternative to track CI changes. This study investigates whether changes in CD peak velocity (CDPV) and corrected flow time (cFT) during an EEOt were correlated with CI changes and if CDPV and cFT changes predicted fluid responsiveness in patients with septic shock. METHODS Prospective, single-center study in adults with hemodynamic instability. The CDPV and cFT on carotid artery Doppler and hemodynamic variables from the pulse contour analysis EV1000™ were recorded at baseline, during a 20-s EEOt, and after fluid challenge (500 mL). We defined responders as those who increased CI ≥ 15% after a fluid challenge. RESULTS We performed 44 measurements in 18 mechanically ventilated patients with septic shock and without arrhythmias. The fluid responsiveness rate was 43.2%. The changes in CDPV were significantly correlated with changes in CI during EEOt (r = 0.51 [0.26-0.71]). A significant, albeit lower correlation, was found for cFT (r = 0.35 [0.1-0.58]). An increase in CI ≥ 5.35% during EEOt predicted fluid responsiveness with 78.9% sensitivity and 91.7% specificity, with an area under the ROC curve (AUROC) of 0.85. An increase in CDPV ≥ 10.5% during an EEOt predicted fluid responsiveness with 96.2% specificity and 53.0% sensitivity with an AUROC of 0.74. Sixty-one percent of CDPV measurements (from - 13.5 to 9.5 cm/s) fell within the gray zone. The cFT changes during EEOt did not accurately predict fluid responsiveness. CONCLUSIONS In septic shock patients without arrhythmias, an increase in CDPV greater than 10.5% during a 20-s EEOt predicted fluid responsiveness with > 95% specificity. Carotid Doppler combined with EEOt may help optimize preload when invasive hemodynamic monitoring is unavailable. However, the 61% gray zone is a major limitation (retrospectively registered on Clinicaltrials.gov NCT04470856 on July 14, 2020).

Prediction of Fluid Responsiveness Using Combined End-Expiratory and End-Inspiratory Occlusion Tests in Cardiac Surgical Patients. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12072569.

Abstract
End-expiratory occlusion (EEO) and end-inspiratory occlusion (EIO) tests have been successfully used to predict fluid responsiveness in various settings using calibrated pulse contour analysis and echocardiography. The aim of this study was to test if respiratory occlusion tests predicted fluid responsiveness reliably in cardiac surgical patients with protective ventilation. This single-centre, prospective study, included 57 ventilated patients after elective coronary artery bypass grafting who were indicated for fluid expansion. Baseline echocardiographic measurements were obtained and patients with significant cardiac pathology were excluded. Cardiac index (CI), stroke volume and stroke volume variation were recorded using uncalibrated pulse contour analysis at baseline, after performing EEO and EIO tests and after volume expansion (7 mL/kg of succinylated gelatin). Fluid responsiveness was defined as an increase in cardiac index by 15%. Neither EEO, EIO nor their combination predicted fluid responsiveness reliably in our study. After a combined EEO and EIO, a cut-off point for CI change of 16.7% predicted fluid responsiveness with a sensitivity of 61.8%, specificity of 69.6% and ROC AUC of 0.593. In elective cardiac surgical patients with protective ventilation, respiratory occlusion tests failed to predict fluid responsiveness using uncalibrated pulse contour analysis.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
Prone position is frequently used in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), especially during the Coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. Our study investigated the ability of pulse pressure variation (PPV) and its changes during a tidal volume challenge (TVC) to assess preload responsiveness in ARDS patients under prone position.
Methods
This was a prospective study conducted in a 25-bed intensive care unit at a university hospital. We included patients with ARDS under prone position, ventilated with 6 mL/kg tidal volume and monitored by a transpulmonary thermodilution device. We measured PPV and its changes during a TVC (ΔPPV TVC6–8) after increasing the tidal volume from 6 to 8 mL/kg for one minute. Changes in cardiac index (CI) during a Trendelenburg maneuver (ΔCITREND) and during end-expiratory occlusion (EEO) at 8 mL/kg tidal volume (ΔCI EEO8) were recorded. Preload responsiveness was defined by both ΔCITREND ≥ 8% and ΔCI EEO8 ≥ 5%. Preload unresponsiveness was defined by both ΔCITREND < 8% and ΔCI EEO8 < 5%.
Results
Eighty-four sets of measurements were analyzed in 58 patients. Before prone positioning, the ratio of partial pressure of arterial oxygen to fraction of inspired oxygen was 104 ± 27 mmHg. At the inclusion time, patients were under prone position for 11 (2–14) hours. Norepinephrine was administered in 83% of cases with a dose of 0.25 (0.15–0.42) µg/kg/min. The positive end-expiratory pressure was 14 (11–16) cmH2O. The driving pressure was 12 (10–17) cmH2O, and the respiratory system compliance was 32 (22–40) mL/cmH2O. Preload responsiveness was detected in 42 cases. An absolute change in PPV ≥ 3.5% during a TVC assessed preload responsiveness with an area under the receiver operating characteristics (AUROC) curve of 0.94 ± 0.03 (sensitivity: 98%, specificity: 86%) better than that of baseline PPV (0.85 ± 0.05; p = 0.047). In the 56 cases where baseline PPV was inconclusive (≥ 4% and < 11%), ΔPPV TVC6–8 ≥ 3.5% still enabled to reliably assess preload responsiveness (AUROC: 0.91 ± 0.05, sensitivity: 97%, specificity: 81%; p < 0.01 vs. baseline PPV).
Conclusion
In patients with ARDS under low tidal volume ventilation during prone position, the changes in PPV during a TVC can reliably assess preload responsiveness without the need for cardiac output measurements.

Fluid challenge in critically ill patients receiving haemodynamic monitoring: a systematic review and comparison of two decades. Crit Care 2022; 26:186.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction
Fluid challenges are widely adopted in critically ill patients to reverse haemodynamic instability. We reviewed the literature to appraise fluid challenge characteristics in intensive care unit (ICU) patients receiving haemodynamic monitoring and considered two decades: 2000–2010 and 2011–2021.
Methods
We assessed research studies and collected data regarding study setting, patient population, fluid challenge characteristics, and monitoring. MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane search engines were used. A fluid challenge was defined as an infusion of a definite quantity of fluid (expressed as a volume in mL or ml/kg) in a fixed time (expressed in minutes), whose outcome was defined as a change in predefined haemodynamic variables above a predetermined threshold.
Results
We included 124 studies, 32 (25.8%) published in 2000–2010 and 92 (74.2%) in 2011–2021, overall enrolling 6,086 patients, who presented sepsis/septic shock in 50.6% of cases. The fluid challenge usually consisted of 500 mL (76.6%) of crystalloids (56.6%) infused with a rate of 25 mL/min. Fluid responsiveness was usually defined by a cardiac output/index (CO/CI) increase ≥ 15% (70.9%). The infusion time was quicker (15 min vs 30 min), and crystalloids were more frequent in the 2011–2021 compared to the 2000–2010 period.
Conclusions
In the literature, fluid challenges are usually performed by infusing 500 mL of crystalloids bolus in less than 20 min. A positive fluid challenge response, reported in 52% of ICU patients, is generally defined by a CO/CI increase ≥ 15%. Compared to the 2000–2010 decade, in 2011–2021 the infusion time of the fluid challenge was shorter, and crystalloids were more frequently used.

How can assessing hemodynamics help to assess volume status? Intensive Care Med 2022; 48:1482-1494.

Abstract
In critically ill patients, fluid infusion is aimed at increasing cardiac output and tissue perfusion. However, it may contribute to fluid overload which may be harmful. Thus, volume status, risks and potential efficacy of fluid administration and/or removal should be carefully evaluated, and monitoring techniques help for this purpose. Central venous pressure is a marker of right ventricular preload. Very low values indicate hypovolemia, while extremely high values suggest fluid harmfulness. The pulmonary artery catheter enables a comprehensive assessment of the hemodynamic profile and is particularly useful for indicating the risk of pulmonary oedema through the pulmonary artery occlusion pressure. Besides cardiac output and preload, transpulmonary thermodilution measures extravascular lung water, which reflects the extent of lung flooding and assesses the risk of fluid infusion. Echocardiography estimates the volume status through intravascular volumes and pressures. Finally, lung ultrasound estimates lung edema. Guided by these variables, the decision to infuse fluid should first consider specific triggers, such as signs of tissue hypoperfusion. Second, benefits and risks of fluid infusion should be weighted. Thereafter, fluid responsiveness should be assessed. Monitoring techniques help for this purpose, especially by providing real time and precise measurements of cardiac output. When decided, fluid resuscitation should be performed through fluid challenges, the effects of which should be assessed through critical endpoints including cardiac output. This comprehensive evaluation of the risk, benefits and efficacy of fluid infusion helps to individualize fluid management, which should be preferred over a fixed restrictive or liberal strategy.

Abstract
AbstractAlthough the administration of fluid is the first treatment considered in almost all cases of circulatory failure, this therapeutic option poses two essential problems: the increase in cardiac output induced by a bolus of fluid is inconstant, and the deleterious effects of fluid overload are now clearly demonstrated. This is why many tests and indices have been developed to detect preload dependence and predict fluid responsiveness. In this review, we take stock of the data published in the field over the past three years. Regarding the passive leg raising test, we detail the different stroke volume surrogates that have recently been described to measure its effects using minimally invasive and easily accessible methods. We review the limits of the test, especially in patients with intra-abdominal hypertension. Regarding the end-expiratory occlusion test, we also present recent investigations that have sought to measure its effects without an invasive measurement of cardiac output. Although the limits of interpretation of the respiratory variation of pulse pressure and of the diameter of the vena cava during mechanical ventilation are now well known, several recent studies have shown how changes in pulse pressure variation itself during other tests reflect simultaneous changes in cardiac output, allowing these tests to be carried out without its direct measurement. This is particularly the case during the tidal volume challenge, a relatively recent test whose reliability is increasingly well established. The mini-fluid challenge has the advantage of being easy to perform, but it requires direct measurement of cardiac output, like the classic fluid challenge. Initially described with echocardiography, recent studies have investigated other means of judging its effects. We highlight the problem of their precision, which is necessary to evidence small changes in cardiac output. Finally, we point out other tests that have appeared more recently, such as the Trendelenburg manoeuvre, a potentially interesting alternative for patients in the prone position.

Abstract
In patients with acute circulatory failure, fluid administration represents a first-line therapeutic intervention for improving cardiac output. However, only approximately 50% of patients respond to fluid infusion with a significant increase in cardiac output, defined as fluid responsiveness. Additionally, excessive volume expansion and associated hyperhydration have been shown to increase morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. Thus, except for cases of obvious hypovolaemia, fluid responsiveness should be routinely tested prior to fluid administration. Static markers of cardiac preload, such as central venous pressure or pulmonary artery wedge pressure, have been shown to be poor predictors of fluid responsiveness despite their widespread use to guide fluid therapy. Dynamic tests including parameters of aortic blood flow or respiratory variability of inferior vena cava diameter provide much higher diagnostic accuracy. Nevertheless, they are also burdened with several significant limitations, reducing the reliability, or even precluding their use in many clinical scenarios. This non-systematic narrative review aims to provide an update on the novel, less employed dynamic tests of fluid responsiveness evaluation in critically ill patients.

Abstract
Ultrasonography is becoming the favored hemodynamic monitoring utensil of emergentologists, anesthesiologists and intensivists. While the roles of ultrasound grow and evolve, many clinical applications of ultrasound stem from qualitative, image-based protocols, especially for diagnosing and managing circulatory failure. Often, these algorithms imply or suggest treatment. For example, intravenous fluids are opted for or against based upon ultrasonographic signs of preload and estimation of the left ventricular ejection fraction. Though appealing, image-based algorithms skirt some foundational tenets of cardiac physiology; namely, (1) the relationship between cardiac filling and stroke volume varies considerably in the critically ill, (2) the correlation between cardiac filling and total vascular volume is poor and (3) the ejection fraction is not purely an appraisal of cardiac function but rather a measure of coupling between the ventricle and the arterial load. Therefore, management decisions could be enhanced by quantitative approaches, enabled by Doppler ultrasonography. Both fluid ‘responsiveness’ and ‘tolerance’ are evaluated by Doppler ultrasound, but the physiological relationship between these constructs is nebulous. Accordingly, it is argued that the link between them is founded upon the Frank–Starling–Sarnoff relationship and that this framework helps direct future ultrasound protocols, explains seemingly discordant findings and steers new routes of enquiry.

Abstract
The ideal device for hemodynamic monitoring of critically ill patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) or the operating room has not yet been developed. This would need to be affordable, consistent, have a very low margin of error (<30%), be minimally or noninvasive, and allow the clinician to make a reasonable therapeutic decision that consistently led to better outcomes. Such a device does not yet exist. This article will describe the distinct options we, as critical care physicians, currently possess for this Herculean endeavor.

Abstract
Background The end-expiratory occlusion (EEXPO) test detects preload responsiveness, but it is 15 s long and induces small changes in cardiac index (CI). It is doubtful whether the Starling bioreactance device, which averages CI over 24 s and refreshes the displayed value every 4 s (Starling-24.4), can detect the EEXPO-induced changes in CI (ΔCI). Our primary goal was to test whether this Starling device version detects preload responsiveness through EEXPO. We also tested whether shortening the averaging and refresh times to 8 s and one second, respectively, (Starling-8.1) improves the accuracy of the device in detecting preload responsiveness using EEXPO. Methods In 42 mechanically ventilated patients, during a 15-s EEXPO, we measured ∆CI through calibrated pulse contour analysis (CIpulse, PiCCO2 device) and using the Starling device. For the latter, we considered both CIStarling-24.4 from the commercial version and CIStarling-8.1 derived from the raw data. For relative ∆CIStarling-24.4 and ∆CIStarling-8.1 during EEXPO, we calculated the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) to detect preload responsiveness, defined as an increase in CIpulse ≥ 10% during passive leg raising (PLR). For both methods, the correlation coefficient vs. ∆CIpulse was calculated. Results Twenty-six patients were preload responders and sixteen non preload-responders. The AUROC for ∆CIStarling-24.4 was significantly lower compared to ∆CIStarling-8.1 (0.680 ± 0.086 vs. 0.899 ± 0.049, respectively; p = 0.027). A significant correlation was observed between ∆CIStarling-8.1 and ∆CIpulse (r = 0.42; p = 0.009), but not between ∆CIStarling-24.4 and ∆CIpulse. During PLR, both ∆CIStarling-24.4 and ∆CIStarling-8.1 reliably detected preload responsiveness. Conclusions Shortening the averaging and refresh times of the bioreactance signal to 8 s and one second, respectively, increases the reliability of the Starling device in detection of EEXPO-induced ∆CI.

Changes in the Plethysmographic Perfusion Index During an End-Expiratory Occlusion Detect a Positive Passive Leg Raising Test. Crit Care Med 2021; 49:e151-e160.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The end-expiratory occlusion test for assessing preload responsiveness consists in interrupting mechanical ventilation for 15 seconds at end-expiration and measuring the cardiac index changes. The perfusion index is the ratio between the pulsatile and the nonpulsatile portions of the plethysmography signal and is, in part, determined by stroke volume. We tested whether the end-expiratory occlusion-induced changes in perfusion index could detect a positive passive leg raising test, suggesting preload responsiveness. DESIGN Observational study. SETTING Medical ICU. PATIENTS Thirty-one ventilated patients without atrial fibrillation. INTERVENTIONS We measured perfusion index (Radical-7 device; Masimo Corp., Irvine, CA) and cardiac index (PiCCO2; Pulsion Medical Systems, Feldkirchen, Germany) before and during a passive leg raising test and a 15-second end-expiratory occlusion. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS In 19 patients with a positive passive leg raising test (increase in cardiac index ≥ 10%), compared to the baseline value and expressed as a relative change, passive leg raising increased cardiac index and perfusion index by 17% ± 7% and 49% ± 23%, respectively, In these patients, end-expiratory occlusion increased cardiac index and perfusion index by 6% ± 2% and 11% ± 8%, respectively. In the 12 patients with a negative passive leg raising test, perfusion index did not significantly change during passive leg raising and end-expiratory occlusion. Relative changes in perfusion index and cardiac index observed during all interventions were significantly correlated (r = 0.83). An end-expiratory occlusion-induced relative increase in perfusion index greater than or equal to 2.5% ([perfusion index during end-expiratory occlusion-perfusion index at baseline]/perfusion index at baseline × 100) detected a positive passive leg raising test with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.95 ± 0.03. This threshold is larger than the least significant change observed for perfusion index (1.62% ± 0.80%). CONCLUSIONS Perfusion index could be used as a reliable surrogate of cardiac index for performing the end-expiratory occlusion test. Confirming previous results, the relative changes in perfusion index also reliably detected a positive passive leg raising test.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the ability of different haemodynamic variables recorded by minimally invasive monitoring techniques to assess fluid responsiveness (FR) in endotoxaemic Beagles. STUDY DESIGN Prospective terminal experimental study. ANIMALS A group of six healthy, purpose-bred Beagle dogs (three intact females and males), age 5-9.8 years (range) and weighing 11.4-17.9 kg. METHODS Endotoxaemic shock was induced by injecting 1 mg kg-1Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS) intravenously in six sevoflurane-anaesthetized mechanically ventilated Beagles for another project. After 10 minutes, three Ringer's acetate boluses (10 mL kg-1) were administered each over 10 minutes with collection of haemodynamic data immediately before and after each bolus. Thereafter, arterial hypotension was treated with noradrenaline ± dexmedetomidine until arterial pressures increased to a target value. After a wash-out period of 20 minutes another three boluses of fluid were administered and measurements were repeated equally. For each fluid bolus, FR was considered positive when change (Δ) in stroke volume measured by pulmonary artery thermodilution was ≥15%. To test predictive accuracy for FR, we recorded heart rate, invasive arterial, right atrial and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures, pulse wave transit time with haemodynamic monitors, calculated pulse pressure, shock index and rate over pressure evaluation (ROPE) and measured stroke distance and corrected flow time (FTc) with oesophageal Doppler monitoring. RESULTS A total of 35 measurements (19 positive and 16 negative responses) were evaluated. A FTc < 330 ms, Δ pulse pressure ≥20%, Δ shock index ≤-14% and ΔROPE ≤-17% were the most significant indicators of positive FR with an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve between 0.72 and 0.74. CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE In endotoxaemic Beagles, none of the assessed haemodynamic variables could predict FR with high sensitivity and specificity.

Abstract
Introduction Dynamic predictors of fluid responsiveness have shown good performance in mechanically ventilated patients at tidal volumes (Vt) > 8 mL kg−1. Nevertheless, most critically ill conditions demand lower Vt. We sought to evaluate the operative performance of several predictors of fluid responsiveness at Vt ≤ 8 mL kg−1 by using meta-regression and subgroup analyses. Methods A sensitive search was conducted in the Embase and MEDLINE databases. We searched for studies prospectively assessing the operative performance of pulse pressure variation (PPV), stroke volume variation (SVV), end-expiratory occlusion test (EEOT), passive leg raising (PLR), inferior vena cava respiratory variability (Δ-IVC), mini-fluid challenge (m-FC), and tidal volume challenge (VtC), to predict fluid responsiveness in adult patients mechanically ventilated at Vt ≤ 8 ml kg−1, without respiratory effort and arrhythmias, published between 1999 and 2020. Operative performance was assessed using hierarchical and bivariate analyses, while subgroup analysis was used to evaluate variations in their operative performance and sources of heterogeneity. A sensitivity analysis based on the methodological quality of the studies included (QUADAS-2) was also performed. Results A total of 33 studies involving 1,352 patients were included for analysis. Areas under the curve (AUC) values for predictors of fluid responsiveness were: for PPV = 0.82, Δ-IVC = 0.86, SVV = 0.90, m-FC = 0.84, PLR = 0.84, EEOT = 0.92, and VtC = 0.92. According to subgroup analyses, variations in methods to measure cardiac output and in turn, to classify patients as responders or non-responders significantly influence the performance of PPV and SVV (p < 0.05). Operative performance of PPV was also significantly affected by the compliance of the respiratory system (p = 0.05), while type of patient (p < 0.01) and thresholds used to determine responsiveness significantly affected the predictability of SVV (p = 0.05). Similarly, volume of fluids infused to determine variation in cardiac output, significantly affected the performance of SVV (p = 0.01) and PLR (p < 0.01). Sensitivity analysis showed no variations in operative performance of PPV (p = 0.39), SVV (p = 0.23) and EEOT (p = 0.15). Conclusion Most predictors of fluid responsiveness reliably predict the response of cardiac output to volume expansion in adult patients mechanically ventilated at tidal volumes ≤ 8 ml kg−1. Nevertheless, technical and clinical variables might clearly influence on their operative performance

Abstract
In this Emerging Technology Review, a novel, wireless, wearable Doppler ultrasound patch is described as a tool for resuscitation. The device is designed, foremost, as a functional hemodynamic monitor-a simple, fast, and consistent method for measuring hemodynamic change with preload variation. More generally, functional hemodynamic monitoring is a paradigm that helps predict stroke volume response to additional intravenous volume. Because Doppler ultrasound of the left ventricular outflow tract noninvasively measures stroke volume in realtime, it increasingly is deployed for this purpose. Nevertheless, Doppler ultrasound in this manner is cumbersome, especially when repeat assessments are needed. Accordingly, peripheral arteries have been studied and various measures from the common carotid artery Doppler signal act as windows to the left ventricle. Yet, handheld Doppler ultrasound of a peripheral artery is susceptible to human measurement error and statistical limitations from inadequate beat sample size. Therefore, a wearable Doppler ultrasound capable of continuous assessment minimizes measurement inconsistencies and smooths inherent physiologic variation by sampling many more cardiac cycles. Reaffirming clinical studies, the ultrasound patch tracks immediate SV change with excellent accuracy in healthy volunteers when cardiac preload is altered by various maneuvers. The wearable ultrasound also follows jugular venous Doppler, which qualitatively trends right atrial pressure. With further clinical research and the application of artificial intelligence, the monitoring modalities with this new technology are manifold.

Abstract
In acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), increased pulmonary vascular permeability makes the lung vulnerable to edema. The use of conservative as compared to liberal fluid strategies may increase the number of ventilator-free days and survival, as well as reduce organ dysfunction. Monitoring the effects of fluid administration is of the utmost importance; dynamic indexes, such as stroke volume and pulse pressure variations, outperform static ones, such as the central venous pressure. The passive leg raise and end-expiratory occlusion tests are recommended for guiding fluid management decisions. The type of intravenous fluids should also be taken into consideration: crystalloids, colloids, and human albumin have all been used for fluid resuscitation. Recent studies have also shown differences in outcome between balanced and non-balanced intravenous solutions. In preclinical studies, infusion of albumin promotes maintenance of the glycocalyx layer, reduces inflammation, and improves alveolar-capillary membrane permeability. Fluids in ARDS must be administered cautiously, considering hemodynamic and perfusion status, oncotic and hydrostatic pressures, ARDS severity, fluid type, volume and infusion rate, and cardiac and renal function. Of note, no guideline to date has recommended a specific fluid composition for use in ARDS; most physicians currently follow recommendations for sepsis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS To test the feasibility of a novel, wearable carotid Doppler ultrasound to track changes in cardiac output induced by end-inspiratory and end-expiratory occlusion tests. METHODS We observed the pattern of Doppler change of the common carotid artery during a simulated end-inspiratory and expiratory occlusion test (sEIOT/sEEOT) in 10, nonventilated, healthy subjects. Simultaneously, we measured the Doppler signal of the descending aorta using duplex ultrasound (Xario, Toshiba Medical Systems) and stroke volume (SV) using noninvasive pulse contour analysis (Clearsight, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, California). RESULTS During sEIOT, SV, maximum velocity time integral (VTI) of the descending aorta, and common carotid fell by 25.7% (P = .0131), 26.1% (P < .0001), and 18.5% (P < .0001), respectively. During sEEOT, SV, maximum VTI of the descending aorta, and common carotid rose by: 41.3% (P = .0051), 28.3% (P < .0001), and 41.6% (P < .0001), respectively. There was good correlation between change in aortic VTI and carotid VTI (r 2 = 0.79); SV and aortic VTI (r 2 = 0.82), and SV and carotid VTI (r 2 = 0.95).The coefficient of variation of the VTI measured by the Doppler patch was roughly 60% less than that of the duplex system. CONCLUSIONS The pattern of SV change induced by a sEIOT/sEEOT in nonmechanically ventilated volunteers is reflected in the common carotid artery and descending aorta. The VTI variability of the Doppler patch was less than that of the traditional, duplex Doppler.

Abstract
In patients with acute circulatory failure, the primary goal of volume expansion is to increase cardiac output. However, this expected effect is inconstant, so that in many instances, fluid administration does not result in any haemodynamic benefit. In such cases, fluid could only exert some deleterious effects. It is now well demonstrated that excessive fluid administration is harmful, especially during acute respiratory distress syndrome and in sepsis or septic shock. This is the reason why some tests and indices have been developed in order to assess “fluid responsiveness” before deciding to perform volume expansion. While preload markers have been used for many years for this purpose, they have been repeatedly shown to be unreliable, which is mainly related to physiological issues. As alternatives, “dynamic” indices have been introduced. These indices are based upon the changes in cardiac output or stroke volume resulting from various changes in preload conditions, induced by heart-lung interactions, postural manoeuvres or by the infusion of small amounts of fluids. The haemodynamic effects and the reliability of these “dynamic” indices of fluid responsiveness are now well described. From their respective advantages and limitations, it is also possible to describe their clinical interest and the clinical setting in which they are applicable.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies assessing the end-expiratory occlusion test (EEXPO test)-induced changes in cardiac output (CO) measured by any haemodynamic monitoring device, as indicators of preload responsiveness. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Database were screened for original articles. Bivariate random-effects meta-analysis determined the Area under the Summary Receiver Operating Characteristic (AUSROC) curve of EEXPO test-induced changes in CO to detect preload responsiveness, as well as pooled sensitivity and specificity and the best diagnostic threshold. RESULTS Thirteen studies (530 patients) were included. Nine studies were performed in the intensive care unit and four in the operating room. The pooled sensitivity and the pooled specificity for the EEXPO test-induced changes in CO were 0.85 [0.77-0.91] and 0.88 [0.83-0.91], respectively. The AUSROC curve was 0.91 [0.86-0.94] with the best threshold of CO increase at 5.1 ± 0.2%. The accuracy of the test was not different when changes in CO were monitored through pulse contour analysis compared to other methods (AUSROC: 0.93 [0.91-0.95] vs. 0.87 [0.82-0.96], respectively, p = 0.62). Also, it was not different in studies in which the tidal volume was ≤ 7 mL/kg compared to the remaining ones (AUSROC: 0.96 [0.92-0.97] vs. 0.89 [0.82-0.95] respectively, p = 0.44). Subgroup analyses identified one possible source of heterogeneity. CONCLUSIONS EEXPO test-induced changes in CO reliably detect preload responsiveness. The diagnostic performance is not influenced by the method used to track the EEXPO test-induced changes in CO. Trial registration The study protocol was prospectively registered on PROSPERO: CRD42019138265.

Does End-Expiratory Occlusion Test Predict Fluid Responsiveness in Mechanically Ventilated Patients? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Shock 2020; 54:751-760.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies investigating the end-expiratory occlusion (EEO) test induced changes in cardiac index (CI) and in arterial pressure as predictors of fluid responsiveness in adults receiving mechanical ventilation. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Database, and Chinese database were screened for relevant original and review articles. The meta-analysis determined the pooled sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic odds ratio, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), and threshold for the EEO test assessed with CI and arterial pressure. In addition, heterogeneity and subgroup analyses were performed. RESULTS We included 13 studies involving 479 adult patients and 523 volume expansion. Statistically significant heterogeneity was identified, and meta-regression indicated that prone position was the major sources of heterogeneity. After removal of the study performed in prone position, heterogeneity became nonsignificant. EEO-induced changes in CI (or surrogate) are accurate for predicting fluid responsiveness in semirecumbent or supine patients, with excellent pooled sensitivity of 92% (95% CI, 0.88-0.95, I = 0.00%), specificity of 89% (95% CI, 0.83-0.93, I = 34.34%), and a summary AUROC of 0.95 (95% CI, 0.93-0.97). The mean threshold was an EEO-induced increase in CI (or surrogate) of more than 4.9 ± 1.5%. EEO test exhibited better diagnostic performance in semirecumbent or supine patients than prone patients, with higher AUROC (0.95 vs. 0.65; P < 0.001). In addition, EEO test exhibited higher specificity (0.93 vs. 0.83, P < 0.001) in patients ventilated with low tidal volume compared with normal or nearly normal tidal volume. However, EEO test was less accurate when its hemodynamic effects were detected on arterial pressure. EEO-induced changes in arterial pressure exhibited a lower sensitivity (0.88 vs. 0.92; P = 0.402), specificity (0.77 vs. 0.90; P = 0.019), and AUROC (0.87 vs. 0.96; P < 0.001) compared with EEO-induced changes in CI (or surrogate). CONCLUSIONS EEO test is accurate to predict fluid responsiveness in semirecumbent or supine patients but not in prone patients. EEO test exhibited higher specificity in patients ventilated with low tidal volume, and its accuracy is better when its hemodynamic effects are assessed by direct measurement of CI than by the arterial pressure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the passive leg raising test ability to predict fluid responsiveness in patients with and without intra-abdominal hypertension. DESIGN Observational study. SETTING Medical ICU. PATIENTS Mechanically ventilated patients monitored with a PiCCO2 device (Pulsion Medical Systems, Feldkirchen, Germany) in whom fluid expansion was planned, with (intra-abdominal hypertension+) and without (intra-abdominal hypertension-) intra-abdominal hypertension, defined by an intra-abdominal pressure greater than or equal to 12 mm Hg (bladder pressure). INTERVENTIONS We measured the changes in cardiac index during passive leg raising and after volume expansion. The passive leg raising test was defined as positive if it increased cardiac index greater than or equal to 10%. Fluid responsiveness was defined by a fluid-induced increase in cardiac index greater than or equal to 15%. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS We included 60 patients, 30 without intra-abdominal hypertension (15 fluid responders and 15 fluid nonresponders) and 30 with intra-abdominal hypertension (21 fluid responders and nine fluid nonresponders). The intra-abdominal pressure at baseline was 4 ± 3 mm Hg in intra-abdominal hypertension- and 20 ± 6 mm Hg in intra-abdominal hypertension+ patients (p < 0.01). In intra-abdominal hypertension- patients with fluid responsiveness, cardiac index increased by 25% ± 19% during passive leg raising and by 35% ± 14% after volume expansion. The passive leg raising test was positive in 14 patients. The passive leg raising test was negative in all intra-abdominal hypertension- patients without fluid responsiveness. In intra-abdominal hypertension+ patients with fluid responsiveness, cardiac index increased by 10% ± 14% during passive leg raising (p = 0.01 vs intra-abdominal hypertension- patients) and by 32% ± 18% during volume expansion (p = 0.72 vs intra-abdominal hypertension- patients). Among these patients, the passive leg raising test was negative in 15 patients (false negatives) and positive in six patients (true positives). Among the nine intra-abdominal hypertension+ patients without fluid responsiveness, the passive leg raising test was negative in all but one patient. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the passive leg raising test for detecting fluid responsiveness was 0.98 ± 0.02 (p < 0.001 vs 0.5) in intra-abdominal hypertension- patients and 0.60 ± 0.11 in intra-abdominal hypertension+ patients (p = 0.37 vs 0.5). CONCLUSIONS Intra-abdominal hypertension is responsible for some false negatives to the passive leg raising test.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To focus on the missing link between accuracy and precision of monitoring devices and effective implementation of therapeutic strategies. RECENT FINDINGS Haemodynamic monitoring is generally considered to be an essential part of intensive care medicine. However, randomized controlled trials fail to demonstrate improved outcome unequivocally as a result of hemodynamic monitoring. This absence of solid proof renders doctors to hesitance to apply haemodynamic monitoring in clinical practise. Profound understanding of the underlying mechanisms, adequate patient selection and timing, meaningful representation and software-supported interpretation of data all play an important role. Furthermore, protocol adherence and human behaviour seem to form the often missing link between a solid physiologic principle and clinically relevant outcome. Introduction of haemodynamic monitoring should therefore not be limited to theoretical and practical issues, but also involve integration strategies. By learning from others, we might be able to implement haemodynamic monitoring in such a way that it has potential to modify the course of a disease. SUMMARY The clinical success of haemodynamic monitoring goes far beyond accuracy and precision of monitoring devices. Understanding of the factors influencing the effective implementation of therapeutic strategies plays an important role in the meaningful introduction of haemodynamic monitoring.

Abstract
Over 300 million surgical procedures are performed every year worldwide. Anesthesiologists play an important role in the perioperative process by assessing the overall risk of surgery and aim to reduce the risk of complications. Perioperative hemodynamic and volume management can help to improve outcomes in perioperative patients. There has been ongoing discussion about goal-directed therapy. However, there is a consensus that fluid overload and severe fluid depletion in the perioperative period are harmful and can lead to adverse outcomes. This article provides an overview of how to evaluate the fluid responsiveness of patients, details which parameters could be used, and what limitations should be noted.

Abstract
Background Assessment of fluid responsiveness is problematic in intensive care unit (ICU) patients, in particular for those undergoing modes of partial support, such as pressure support ventilation (PSV). We propose a new test, based on application of a ventilator-generated sigh, to predict fluid responsiveness in ICU patients undergoing PSV. Methods This was a prospective bi-centric interventional study conducted in two general ICUs. In 40 critically ill patients with a stable ventilatory PSV pattern and requiring volume expansion (VE), we assessed the variations in arterial systolic pressure (SAP), pulse pressure (PP) and stroke volume index (SVI) consequent to random application of 4-s sighs at three different inspiratory pressures. A radial arterial signal was directed to the MOSTCARE™ pulse contour hemodynamic monitoring system for hemodynamic measurements. Data obtained during sigh tests were recorded beat by beat, while all the hemodynamic parameters were averaged over 30 s for the remaining period of the study protocol. VE consisted of 500 mL of crystalloids over 10 min. A patient was considered a responder if a VE-induced increase in cardiac index (CI) ≥ 15% was observed. Results The slopes for SAP, SVI and PP of were all significantly different between responders and non-responders (p < 0.0001, p = 0.0004 and p < 0.0001, respectively). The AUC of the slope of SAP (0.99; sensitivity 100.0% (79.4–100.0%) and specificity 95.8% (78.8–99.9%) was significantly greater than the AUC for PP (0.91) and SVI (0.83) (p = 0.04 and 0.009, respectively). The SAP slope best threshold value of the ROC curve was − 4.4° from baseline. The only parameter found to be independently associated with fluid responsiveness among those included in the logistic regression was the slope for SAP (p = 0.009; odds ratio 0.27 (95% confidence interval (CI95) 0.10–0.70)). The effects produced by the sigh at 35 cmH20 (Sigh35) are significantly different between responders and non-responders. For a 35% reduction in PP from baseline, the AUC was 0.91 (CI95 0.82–0.99), with sensitivity 75.0% and specificity 91.6%. Conclusions In a selected ICU population undergoing PSV, analysis of the slope for SAP after the application of three successive sighs and the nadir of PP after Sigh35 reliably predict fluid responsiveness.
