Filter by:This study aims to compare the volume management methods performed by using conventional method and PVI monitoring in intraoperative fluid treatment during bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and total hysterectomy operation.
Although many alternative methods are present, maintaining ideal volume status in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients still rely on clinical evaluation due to lack of an evidence based method. Lung ultrasound (LUS) is a new method for evaluation of hidden congestion in this group. LUS findings and its relationship with other volumetric methods are investigated in this study. LUS was performed to all peritoneal dialysis patients and compared with symptoms of hypervolemia, physical examination, vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide levels, chest radiography, echocardiography, bioelectrical impedance analysis.
The decision to give fluids perioperatively could be based on methods used to identify preload responsiveness, either invasive or noninvasive estimates of stroke volume variation during mechanical ventilation. This study compares fluid management using continuous noninvasive cardiac output measurement with standard perioperative fluid management.
The purpose of this study is to use the photo-plethysmographic [PPG] waveform signal to guide the dialysis and ultrafiltration [UF] of chronic maintenance hemodialysis patients, and to further the investigators understanding of homeostasis in hemodialysis. The investigators hypothesize that the signals generated from the PPG device along with traditional monitoring and nursing judgment, will allow experienced, oriented staff to anticipate hemodynamic instability, intervene to prevent or mitigate the intradialytic hypotention [IDH], forestalling the onset of non-facilitating compensatory reflexes that preclude the patient from achieving an appropriate post-dialysis weight consistent with euvolemia. Furthermore, it is hypothesized that the nephrologist and staff will be able to wean patients from anti-hypertensive medications and craft patient specific dialysis orders and UF profiles that achieve consistent, comfortable treatment to appropriate end points. The study aims include: Aim 1: To confirm the temporal sequence of PPG signals and changes in BP in routine hemodialysis. Aim 2: To refine further the predictive algorithms of PPG, augmented with continuous cardiac event monitoring (pre-intra-post hemodialysis) Aim 3: To develop targeted interventions to reverse the cardiovascular stress indicated by the PPG and to maintain perfusion. Aim 4: To develop care paths approved by the medical staff and primary care nephrologist allowing RNs to respond to signals from the PPG.
The study will evaluate the effectiveness and safety of multiple dosing regimens of IV conivaptan in subjects with euvolemic or hypervolemic hyponatremia
