Fluid Responsiveness. Changes in stroke volume (SV) before (T4) and after (T5) a fluid bolus. We defined fluid responsiveness as an increase in SV of more than 10%. The 7 thick lines are correlating with the data of the patients that were fluid responsive measured by transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD Responders). The ProAQT® fluid responsiveness agreed in most patients based on the pulse contour SV calculation in the radial artery (middle figure) and in the femoral artery (right figure)
