Tachycardia may occur before hypotension or signs of end-organ injury are apparent, but it is non-specific, often overlooked and may be attributed to other less serious causes. Unless clinicians have ahigh index of suspicion for subclinical hypovolemia, at-risk patients may progress to overt ...
The “protective” effect of high blood urea nitrogen level (and possibly high hemoglobin) probably represents patients with intravascular hypovolemia who are less likely to be diagnosed with AKI after the dilutional effect of fluid resuscitation. The elevated potassium and calcium levels likely ...
Repeated fluid challenges are performed according to filling pressure in order to exclude hypovolemia. Broad-spectrum empiric antibiotics are started based on likely pathogens according to the probable source of the sepsis, and adjusted as soon as culture results are available. The onset of septic ...
Throughout the hospitaladmission, severe adverse events were reported immediately and clinical features ofpulmonary edema and raised intracranial pressure, and evidence of hypovolemia andallergic events were actively solicited. An independent clinician removed allreferences to randomized arm or fluid management...
Lightweight noninvasive trauma monitor for early indication of central hypovolemia and tissue acidosis: a review. J Trauma Acute Care Surg. 2012; 73(2 Suppl 1):S106-S111.Soller BR,Zou F,Ryan KL,et al. Lightweight noninvasive trauma monitor for early indication of central hypovolemia and ...
Introduction Inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter decreases under conditions of hypovolemia. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) may be useful to emergently assess IVC diameter. This study tested the hypothesis that ultrasound measurements of IVC diameter decreases during severe simulated blood loss. Methods...

The echocardiography showed the absence of pericardial effusion, severe hypovolemia, ejection fraction 45%. Therapy included: rehydration using sodium solutions, correction of hypoalbuminemia and hyperglycaemia, MMV for 24 hours with progressive improvement in gas exchange, haematocrit normalization (46% as...
We have conceived techniques to track CO, SV, EDV, and ANS activity by mathematical analysis of a peripheral ABP waveform and simpler non-invasive waveforms. Our objective was to prove the efficacy of these techniques during hypovolemia. We investigated the techniques based on existing data from ...
