View clinical trials related to Fluid Challenge.
Filter by:Fluid challenge is frequently used in fluid management of critically ill patients. Assessing whether there is a preload reserve that can be used to increase the stroke volume by delivering a small amount of fluid in a short period of time. Optimization of fluid therapy is very important in intensive care patients. Inappropriate fluid therapy can cause significant morbidity and even mortality. Increased intracranial pressure is one of these important complications. In the present study, we planned to evaluate the effect of a fluid challenge on intracranial pressure by measuring the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD).
In order to predict fluid responsiveness in the operating room and therefore benefit of performing fluid administration to improve patient's hemodynamic status, it will test two ventilation strategies : the Tidal Volume Challenge (VtC) and the Lung Recruitment Maneuver (LRM). The objective is to determine whether the variation of 2 parameters such as pulse pression variation (PPV) and stroke volume variation (SVV) during these 2 strategies, allows to predict fluid responsiveness in the operating room for any heavy surgery. All patients will benefit from the 2 ventilation strategies then a fluid administration, called " fluid challenge ", will be performed to discriminate the true responders and others. The order of the ventilation strategies will be determined by randomization.
