- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To assess the ability of the model-based method to retrospectively track hemodynamic changes resulting from the inotropic and PEEP interventions. The model-based results will be compared to clinical diagnoses, clinically derived CVS performance metrics, and standard ICU hemodynamic measurements. Where applicable, the ability of the model to capture the data will be analysed by 90% confidence intervals of the absolute percentage error between the identified model predictions and the measured response. Errors within measurement error of 10% will be assumed to be a fully accurate prediction.[The outcomes of the trials will be assessed at the end of the clinical study.]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To store all the hemodynamic measurements recorded in the ICU including: arterial pressure, central venous pressure, pulmonary artery pressure, stroke volume, global end diastolic volume, extra-vascular lung water, heart rate, respiratory pressure and flow, ECG, and other available cardiac and circulatory measurements to create a virtual patient database for future research.[The database will be set up at the end of the study.]
