Change in left ventricular velocity time integral during Trendelenburg maneuver predicts fluid responsiveness in cardiac surgical patients in the operating room. Quant Imaging Med Surg 2021; 11:3133-3145. [PMID: 34249640 PMCID: PMC8250022 DOI: 10.21037/qims-20-700] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2020] [Accepted: 03/03/2021] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fluid responsiveness is an important topic for clinicians. We investigated whether changes in left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) velocity time integral (VTI) during a Trendelenburg position (TP) maneuver can predict fluid responsiveness as a non-invasive marker in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery patients in the operating room. METHODS This prospective, single-center observational study, performed in the operating room, enrolled 65 elective CABG patients. Hemodynamic data coupled with transesophageal echocardiography monitoring of the LVOT VTI and the peak velocity were collected at each step [baseline 1, TP, baseline 2 and fluid challenge (FC)]. Patients whose VTI increased ≥15% after FC (500 mL of Gelofusine infusion within 30 min) were considered responders. RESULTS Twenty-eight (43.1%) patients were responders to fluid administration. VTI changes during the TP maneuver predicted fluid responsiveness with an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.90 (95% CI, 0.79-0.96), with a sensitivity of 100%, and a specificity of 70% at a threshold of 10% (gray zone, 8-15%). The increase in VTI during the TP was correlated with the VTI changes induced by FC (r=0.61, P<0.0001). Changes in peak velocity and pulse pressure during the TP were poorly predictive of fluid responsiveness, with an AUC of 0.72 (95% CI: 0.60-0.82) and 0.66 (95% CI: 0.53-0.77), respectively. CONCLUSIONS An increase in VTI induced by the TP could predict fluid responsiveness in CABG patients in the operating room. However, changes in peak velocity and pulse pressure stimulated by the TP could not reliably predict fluid responsiveness.

Abstract
Accurate assessment of intravascular volume status in critically ill patients remains a very challenging task. Recent data have shown adverse outcomes in critically ill patients with either inadequate or overaggressive fluid therapy. Understanding the tools and techniques available for accurate volume assessment is imperative. This article discusses the concept of fluid responsiveness and reviews methods for assessing fluid responsiveness in critically ill patients.
