Clinical Trial Summary
In pediatric surgical patients, the sensitivity of forehead and finger PVI monitoring was
similar for the prediction of fluid responsiveness, whereas the specificity of forehead
monitoring was higher. The use of forehead PVI probes in the fluid management of these
patients seemed to be appropriate because cephalic region was not affected by low perfusion
states.
Description:
he Plethysmographic Variability Index (PVI) can be measured with both finger and forehead
probes. Vasoconstriction may reduce the reliability of PVI measurements in pediatric surgical
patients prone to hypothermia. The vascular structure of the forehead area is resistant to
changes in vasomotor tonus. The aim of our study is to compare the efficacy of PVI values
measured at the finger and forehead areas to predict fluid responsiveness in these patients.
Fifty pediatric patients with obtained parental consent and ethics committee approval
underwent elective minor surgery were included into the study. Basic monitoring, finger and
forehead perfusion index (PI) and PVI monitoring were applied. Hemodynamic parameters, PI,
PVI, cardiac output (CO) values were recorded. The 15% increase in CO with passive leg raise
(PLR) maneuver was estimated as fluid responsiveness. Two groups were created: Group R (fluid
responsive); Group NR (fluid nonresponsive). Mann-Whitney U, t, chi-square and ROC tests were
used in statistical evaluation.
