Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The main study endpoint is a new dynamic parameter that is indexed to tidal<br /><br>volume to predict volume responsiveness and decrease the number of unnecessary<br /><br>(and potential harmful) fluid challenges on the ICU. </p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The second study endpoint is a physiological relational model that describes<br /><br>the distribution of breathing pressures during controlled and supported<br /><br>mechanical ventilation at 2 different thorax compliances. The third endpoint is<br /><br>a reliable method for the prediction of volume responsiveness with the<br /><br>combination of the Nexfin (noninvasive CO technique) and the passive leg<br /><br>raising test.</p><br>
