Fluid Responsiveness
Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of TFU (transfontanel ultrasound)for the prediction of fluid responsiveness in children undergoing congenital heart surgery.
Interventions
The respiratory variation of the carotid artery blood flow peak velocity was measured using TFU before and after the fluid administration (10ml/kg for 20 min.)
