Fig. 4From: Comparison of volume and hemodynamic effects of crystalloid, hydroxyethyl starch, and albumin in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery: a prospective observational studyTime course of increase in stroke volume index after fluid challenge. For clarity, only median values of the change in stroke volume index are shown. SVI = stroke volume index; BRS = bicarbonate Ringer’s solution; HES = 6% hydroxyethyl starch 130/0.4; Alb = 5% albuminBack to article page
