Fig. 3From: Measurement site of inferior vena cava diameter affects the accuracy with which fluid responsiveness can be predicted in spontaneously breathing patients: a post hoc analysis of two prospective cohortsScatterplot of individual values for the collapsibility index of the inferior vena cava (cIVC). Scatterplot of individual values before volume expansion (VE) for cIVC measured at 4 cm caudal to the IVC–atrial junction in spontaneous breathing patients, both without (a, cIVC-ns 4) and with (b, cIVC-st 4) standardized breathing manoeuvre, in non-responders and responders to VE. Red lines show the optimal threshold value for predicting fluid responseBack to article page
