Accuracy of the Pleth Variability Index to Predict Fluid Responsiveness in Liver Transplantation

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Hemodynamic Instability
Interventions
Device: PVI-guided fluid management
Registration Number
NCT01792011
Lead Sponsor
Inonu University
Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the accuracy of PVI (pleth variability index)

Detailed Description

The aim of this study is to compare the accuracy of PVI (pleth variability index)with other hemodynamic variability that measured with PİCCO (SVV, PPV, CVP,CI)to predict the response of cardiac index to volume replacement in patients undergoing liver transplantation.

GroupInterventionDescription
PVIPVI-guided fluid managementA new non-invasive device (Radical-7 pulse oximeter monitor, Masimo Corp.) has been introduced that continuously detects changes in the plethysmograph waveform and computes a Plethysmography Variability Index (PVI) reflecting alteration in preload and fluid management.
Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To test the ability of PVI to detect changes in preload during orthotopic liver transplantationDuring dissection and anhepatic phase (3 months)

PVI is a measure of the dynamic changes in perfusion index that occur during a complete respiratory cycle

Secondary Outcome Measures
