Passive leg raising predicting fluid responsiveness in pediatric intensive care unit |
Official scientific title |
The role of passive leg raising in the predication of intravenous fluid responsiveness in pediatric intensive care unit patients |
Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Worldwide, more than 15 million patients are admitted to Intensive Care Units (ICUs) annually. In these patients, evaluation of the hemodynamic status is of upmost importance, since circulatory insufficiency is very commonly encountered in the ICU patients
In order to identify patients who may benefit from fluid resuscitation which increases cardiac output, predictors of volume responsiveness are needed at the bedside. Passive leg raising (PLR) is one of the maneuvers that can increase the preload rapidly by autotransfusion of the blood originated from the veins of the lower extremities. This preload increase cardiac output in the patients who respond to fluid administration.
The aim of the present work is to predict the ability of the heart to respond to any type of fluid resuscitation by using simple maneuver as passive leg raising and a special bedside non invasive tool ¿ICON" that measures cardiac index and stroke volume to optimize fluid administration in pediatric intensive care units.
