Abstract
INTRODUCTION Dynamic preload assessment measures including pulse pressure variation (PPV), stroke volume variation (SVV), pleth variability index (PVI), and hypotension prediction index (HPI) have been utilized clinically to guide fluid management decisions in critically ill patients. These values aid in the balance of correcting hypotension while avoiding over-resuscitation leading to respiratory failure and increased mortality. However, these measures have not been previously validated at altitude or in those with temporary abdominal closure (TAC). METHODS Forty-eight female swine (39 ± 2 kg) were separated into eight groups (n = 6) including all combinations of flight versus ground, hemorrhage versus no hemorrhage, and TAC versus no TAC. Flight animals underwent simulated aeromedical evacuation via an altitude chamber at 8000 ft. Hemorrhagic shock was induced via stepwise hemorrhage removing 10% blood volume in 15-min increments to a total blood loss of 40% or a mean arterial pressure of 35 mmHg. Animals were then stepwise transfused with citrated shed blood with 10% volume every 15 min back to full blood volume. PPV, SVV, PVI, and HPI were monitored every 15 min throughout the simulated aeromedical evacuation or ground control. Blood samples were collected and analyzed for serum levels of serum IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-α. RESULTS Hemorrhage groups demonstrated significant increases in PPV, SVV, PVI, and HPI at each step compared to nonhemorrhage groups. Flight increased PPV (P = 0.004) and SVV (P = 0.003) in hemorrhaged animals. TAC at ground level increased PPV (P < 0.0001), SVV (P = 0.0003), and PVI (P < 0.0001). When TAC was present during flight, PPV (P = 0.004), SVV (P = 0.003), and PVI (P < 0.0001) values were decreased suggesting a dependent effect between altitude and TAC. There were no significant differences in serum IL-1β, IL-6, IL-8, or TNF-α concentration between injury groups. CONCLUSIONS Based on our study, PPV and SVV are increased during flight and in the presence of TAC. Pleth variability index is slightly increased with TAC at ground level. Hypotension prediction index demonstrated no significant changes regardless of altitude or TAC status, however this measure was less reliable once the resuscitation phase was initiated. Pleth variability index may be the most useful predictor of preload during aeromedical evacuation as it is a noninvasive modality.

Toscani L, Aya HD, Antonakaki D, Bastoni D, Watson X, Arulkumaran N, Rhodes A, Cecconi M. What is the impact of the fluid challenge technique on diagnosis of fluid responsiveness? A systematic review and meta-analysis. CRITICAL CARE : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE CRITICAL CARE FORUM 2017; 21:207. [PMID: 28774325 PMCID: PMC5543539 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-017-1796-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 65] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2017] [Accepted: 07/12/2017] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Background The fluid challenge is considered the gold standard for diagnosis of fluid responsiveness. The objective of this study was to describe the fluid challenge techniques reported in fluid responsiveness studies and to assess the difference in the proportion of ‘responders,’ (PR) depending on the type of fluid, volume, duration of infusion and timing of assessment. Methods Searches of MEDLINE and Embase were performed for studies using the fluid challenge as a test of cardiac preload with a description of the technique, a reported definition of fluid responsiveness and PR. The primary outcome was the mean PR, depending on volume of fluid, type of fluids, rate of infusion and time of assessment. Results A total of 85 studies (3601 patients) were included in the analysis. The PR were 54.4% (95% CI 46.9–62.7) where <500 ml was administered, 57.2% (95% CI 52.9–61.0) where 500 ml was administered and 60.5% (95% CI 35.9–79.2) where >500 ml was administered (p = 0.71). The PR was not affected by type of fluid. The PR was similar among patients administered a fluid challenge for <15 minutes (59.2%, 95% CI 54.2–64.1) and for 15–30 minutes (57.7%, 95% CI 52.4–62.4, p = 1). Where the infusion time was ≥30 minutes, there was a lower PR of 49.9% (95% CI 45.6–54, p = 0.04). Response was assessed at the end of fluid challenge, between 1 and 10 minutes, and >10 minutes after the fluid challenge. The proportions of responders were 53.9%, 57.7% and 52.3%, respectively (p = 0.47). Conclusions The PR decreases with a long infusion time. A standard technique for fluid challenge is desirable.

Abstract
Although fluid resuscitation of patients having acute circulatory failure is essential, avoiding unnecessary administration of fluids in these patients is also important. Fluid responsiveness (FR) is defined as the ability of the left ventricle to increase its stroke volume (SV) in response to fluid administration. The objective of this review is to provide the recent advances in the detection of FR and simplify the physiological basis, advantages, disadvantages, and cut-off values for each method. This review also highlights the present gaps in literature and provides future thoughts in the field of FR. Static methods are generally not recommended for the assessment of FR. Dynamic methods for the assessment of FR depend on heart-lung interactions. Pulse pressure variation (PPV) and stroke volume variation (SVV) are the most famous dynamic measures. Less-invasive dynamic parameters include plethysmographic-derived parameters, variation in blood flow in large arteries, and variation in the diameters of central veins. Dynamic methods for the assessment of FR have many limitations; the most important limitation is spontaneous breathing activity. Fluid challenge techniques were able to overcome most of the limitations of the dynamic methods. Passive leg raising is the most popular fluid challenge method. More simple techniques have been recently introduced such as the mini-fluid challenge and 10-s fluid challenge. The main limitation of fluid challenge techniques is the need to trace the effect of the fluid challenges on SV (or any of its derivatives) using a real-time monitor. More research is needed in the field of FR taking into consideration not only the accuracy of the method but also the ease of implementation, the applicability on a wider range of patients, the time needed to apply each method, and the feasibility of its application by acute care physicians with moderate and low experience.
