View clinical trials related to Stroke Volume Variation.
Filter by:Stroke volume variation (SVV) is an indicator used to assess the patient's volume status. The FloTrac system (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) continuously monitors cardiac output (CO) and SVV (SVV-FloTrac) by analyzing the systemic arterial pressure wave. Numerous studies have demonstrated that SVV-FloTrac serves as a reliable indicator of fluid responsiveness. However, its peripheral invasiveness raises concerns about susceptibility to reflecting waves, damping, and vascular tone influences.In contrast, Transthoracic electrical bioimpedance (BioZ.com™) offers a non-invasive approach for continuously monitoring various hemodynamic variables. In this study, the primary aim was to assess the agreement between simultaneously measured SVV-FloTrac and SVV-BioZ.

Although individualized or goal-directed approach has been advocated, a reliable index is still required to help monitor the volume status timely and efficiently. Dynamic indexes, such as pulse pressure variation (PPV) and stroke volume variation (SVV), have been shown to be clearly superior to more commonly measured static preload variables, such as pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP) and central venous pressure (CVP). The reliability of dynamic indexes in monitoring the volume status and predicting fluid responsiveness have been validated. Fluid optimization guided by SVV and PPV is beneficial to hemodynamic stability and can decrease mortality and reduce postoperative complications. However, the usefulness of dynamic indexes in elderly patients has not been previously investigated. This study aimed to evaluate whether dynamic indexes PPV and SVV can reliably predict fluid responsiveness in elderly patients, and to determine their thresholds in elderly patients.
This investigator initiated, prospective, observational, single-center study is designed to assess whether dynamic monitors of cardiac function such as stroke volume variation (SVV) that have been shown to predict volume responsiveness differ in clinical utility between patients with and without diastolic dysfunction.
Optimal fluid balance is critical to minimize anastomotic edema in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. This study examined the effects of decreased fluid administration on rates of postoperative pancreatic leak and delayed gastric emptying.
During general anaesthesia, pulmonary atelectasis has been shown to occur in 85 to 90% of patient. Pulmonary atelectasis increases occurrence of postoperative pulmonary complication including pneumoniae. Pulmonary atelectasis can be prevented or reversed by alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (ARM). Two methods for ARMs have been described. A sustained continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) or a stepwise increase in PEEP.The transient increase in intrathoracic pressure during ARMs decreases venous return and increases pulmonary vascular resistance. This result in a decrease in right and left ventricular stroke volume (SV). Finally, the deleterious hemodynamic effects of ARMs may be exacerbated by hypovolemia, heart failure, and in patients with chronic treatment wich impedes cardiovascular responses to hypovolemia. At our best knowledge, there is no study which compared the hemodynamic effects of ARM using sustained CPAP or stepwise increase in PEEP. Consequently, the present study was designed to examine the hemodynamic effects of 2 ARM methods in anesthetized patients.

We would like to investigate the natural variation in the strokevolume of the heart. At the same time we would like to find out the minimal number of heart cycles necessary to discover a 10% increase in strokevolume, after a fluid bolus of 200ml Voluven, when using Esophageal Doppler.
