Study protocol. LRM consisted of applying a continuous positive airway pressure of 30 cm H2O for 30 s. Volume expansion consisted of an infusion of 250 mL HES given in 10 min. Five sets of hemodynamic measurements including mean arterial pressure, heart rate, stroke volume, stroke volume variation, and pulse pressure variation were performed. T0: baseline measurement in supine position; T1: baseline measurement in prone position 10 min after turning prone and before LRM; T2: at the end of LRM; T3: second baseline measurement 5 min after LRM; T4: after volume expansion. Abbreviations: LRM, lung recruitment maneuver; HES, hydroxyethyl starch
