Echocardiographic Prediction of Fluid Responsiveness After a Mini-fluid Challenge in Non-ventilated Patients With Shock

Completed
Conditions
Shock
Circulatory Failure
Registration Number
NCT01590511
Lead Sponsor
Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nīmes
Brief Summary

The main objective of this study is to show that the variation of the subaortic velocity time integral after a mini test by filling 100 cc of normal saline over 1 minute (ΔITV100) is predictive of response to filling (defined as an increase in aortic velocity time integral measured by transthoracic ultrasound over 15% after administration of 500 cc of normal saline over 15 minutes) in non-ventilated shock patients.

Detailed Description

The secondary objectives of this study include:

* To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the variation of the velocity time integral after administration of 100 cc of normal saline over 1 minute (ΔITV100) to predict the response to the filling.

* To study the inter-observer variation of ΔITV100 measurement.

* To compare ΔITV100 to other clinical and radiological parameters for predicting response to filling (initial value of the subaortic velocity time integral, variation in mitral E wave, E / A, respiratory variation of the diameter of the inferior vena cava, marbling clinical evolution score.
