Conditions

Hypovolemia

Brief summary

Lung recruitment maneuver induces a decrease in stroke volume, which is more pronounced in hypovolemic patients. The authors hypothesized that the changes of dynamic variables through lung recruitment maneuver could predict preload responsiveness in pediatric patients with lung protective ventilation
