2
Fluid
Challenge
Giving a small amount of fluid in a short period of time
to assess whether the patient has a preload response
that can be used to increase the stroke volume with
further fluids.
If SV increases by
≥10% then likely fluid
responsive
3
Passive Leg
Raise
Using the bed to position the patient's upper body at
zero degrees while simultaneously raising both legs to
about 45 degrees 30-90 seconds.
If SV increases by
≥10% then likely fluid
responsive
4
End Expiratory
Occlusion Test
Occluding the airway at the end of expiration for 10-30
seconds and observe the maximum rise in SV.
If SV increases by
≥5% then likely fluid
responsive
