- Not specified
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The primary goal of this study is to proof that the parameters measured by echocardiography to describe the fluid responsiveness are comparable to the paramters derived by pulse contour analysis.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The secondary goal of this study is to show that the cardiac output measured by echocardiography is comparable to the cardiac output measured by pulse contour analysis.
