Non-Invasive Prediction of Fluid Responsiveness in Septic Shock: A Prospective Study of Transcutaneous Partial Pressure of Oxygen and Aortic Valve Velocity
Background and Aims Evaluating fluid responsiveness is essential in managing septic shock because both inadequate resuscitation and over-resuscitation can result in detrimental consequences. Non-invasive techniques are increasingly preferred to guide fluid therapy. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of TCPO2 and AVVTI in predicting AVVTI-defined fluid responsiveness in patients with septic shock. Patients and Methods From September 2023 to March 2024, this prospective study was conducted in the intensiv …
