UNASSIGNED: Observational, single-centre, prospective study.
UNASSIGNED: Tertiary academic medical intensive care unit, Lyon, France.
UNASSIGNED: Adult patients receiving norepinephrine, monitored by CCOPCA, and in which a PLR and/or a FC was indicated.
UNASSIGNED: CCOMBA and CCOPCA were recorded prior to and during the PLR/FC to evaluate bias and evaluate changes in CCOMBA and CCOPCA (∆%CCOMBA and ∆%CCOPCA). Fluid responsiveness was identified by an increase >15% in calibrated cardiac output after FC, to identify the optimal ∆%CCOMBA threshold during PLR to predict fluid responsiveness.
UNASSIGNED: 29 patients (median age 68 [IQR: 57-74]) performed 28 PLR and 16 FC. The bias between methods increased with higher CCOPCA values, with a percentage error of 64% (95%confidence interval: 52%-77%). ∆%CCOMBA adequately tracked changes in ∆%CCOPCA with an angular bias of 2 ± 29°. ∆%CCOMBA during PLR had an AUROC of 0.92 (P < 0.05), with an optimal threshold >14% to predict fluid responsiveness (sensitivity: 0.99, specificity: 0.87).
UNASSIGNED: CCOMBA showed a non-constant bias and a percentage error >30% against calibrated CCOPCA, but an adequate ability to track changes in CCOPCA and to predict fluid responsiveness.
