  1. Values are expressed as counts (%) or medians and interquartile ranges (25th; 75th centiles) Measurements of inferior vena cava (IVC) diameters were carried out at five sites: at the IVC-atrium junction (site 0), then at 1 (site 1), 3 (site 3), 4 (site 4) and 5 cm (site 5) caudal to the IVC-atrium junction. cIVC-ns collapsibility index of the IVC in non-standardized breathing conditions, cIVC-st collapsibility index of IVC with standardized breathing manoeuvre. *Measurement site 5 was performed in only 37 non-responders and 39 responders
