Fig. 3From: Early goal-directed therapy using a physiological holistic view: the ANDROMEDA-SHOCK—a randomized controlled trialAssessment of fluid responsiveness during the study period. The figure describes an algorithm for assessing fluid responsiveness in different settings depending on the presence or not of mechanical ventilation, arrhythmias or other conditions. Different tests are proposed with the respective cutoff values. ARDS acute respiratory distress syndrome; PLR passive leg rising; CO cardiac output; EEOT end-expiratory occlusion test; CI cardiac index; VTI velocity time integral; Vt tidal volume, PBW predicted body weight; PPV pulse pressure variation; SVV stroke volume variation, IVC inferior vena cava; SVC superior vena cavaBack to article page
