1 | Is the patient ventilated with CMV without spontaneous efforts? |
2 | Is the patient ventilated with tidal volume at least 7–8 ml/kg IBW? |
3 | Is the patient in closed-chest condition? |
4 | Is the patient in sinus rhythm? |
5 | Is lung compliance normal? |
6 | Is the patient unaffected by valvular disease? |
7 | Is the patient unaffected by right/left ventricular dysfunction? |
8 | Does the patient have normal abdominal pressure? |
9 | Is the HR/RR ratio ≥ 3.6? |
10 | Can you safely assess the efficacy of VE without HR or vasomotor tone changes? |
