Brief summary

This study test the agreement and precision of Pulse Pressure Variation (PPV) and Cardiac Output (CO) obtained by the Android application Capstesia™ against another pulse contour CO monitoring ( EV-1000, Edwards Lefesciences, USA)

Detailed description

Pulse pressure variation (PPV) remains a good predictor of fluid responsiveness in the OR. However, PPV can be time-consuming to calculate (manual determination), is not always displayed on monitoring screens nor reliable through visual assessment and needs additional devices to be displayed. A new Android application (Captesia) automatically calculates the PPV utilizing a digital photograph of the arterial waveform from the monitor. The application determines the PPV by selecting peaks and troughs of the arterial curve.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Agreement and precision of PPV and CO during 5 surgical phases (postinduction, pre incision, postincision, end of surgery and at least one episode of hypotension)during surgeryWe will compare PPV and CO given with the EV-1000 and the capstesia app at different phases of the surgery
