NCT01965574

Brief Summary

Preload dependence assessment is difficult during prone position, and to date, no hemodynamic parameters have been validated to rationalize fluid loading in that position. This study aims to validate several hemodynamic parameters, using continuous cardiac output by pulse contour analysis and transpulmonary thermodilution.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Area under ROC curve of the variation in continuous cardiac output during Trendelenburg position, to detect preload dependence

    Preload dependence is assessed by the response in cardiac output to a 500 mL fluid loading, and is deemed positive if cardiac output increase by at least 15%

    1 minute after Trendelenburg position onset.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Area under ROC curve of the variation in continuous cardiac output during end-expiratory occlusion to detect preload dependence

    15 seconds after the onset of end-expiratory occlusion

  • Area under ROC curve of the respiratory variation in pulse pressure to detect preload dependence

    1 minute after tidal volume increase to 8 ml/kg
