How to measure and interpret volumetric measures of preload

Abstract: Volumetric measures of preload are good preload indexes. These data are to be interpreted together with the clinical patient's condition, conventional hemodynamic data and the course of illness in critically ill patients. In order to evaluate whether the application of a predefined therapy algorithm based on volumetric monitoring can improve patients' outcome, more studies are needed.

“…It is known that neither PAC nor volumetric monitoring "per se" improves outcome in critically ill patients. 18 Furthermore, hypovolemia is often exaggerated from the early stage of SAH without a significant impact on CO 22 or on brain tissue perfusion, 2,34 suggesting the need for careful fluid management to avoid hypovolemia for reducing the risk of delayed cerebral ischemia. Taken together, the better clinical course of our patients receiving the new management paradigm might be explained by placement of the PiCCO from the early phase is effective for stabilization of cardiac performance under normovolemia safely and appropriately before the onset of cerebral vasospasm without overloading them.…”

“…Recently, international guidelines and reviews [10][11][12][13][14] have emphasized the importance of monitoring cardiac output and its related variables under special clinical conditions but call for well conducted, randomized, controlled studies to be performed to prove the exact role of these parameters in the outcome in critically ill patients.…”
