Evaluation of the Microcirculatory Response to Fluids in Critically Ill Patients With Venous Congestion: A Prospective Observational Study

• Status: Recruiting
• Phase: —
• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 30 (estimated)
• Sponsor: Università Politecnica delle Marche · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 18 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The hypothesis is that fluid-responsive patients who show signs of venous congestion experience a worsening of microcirculatory status after fluid administration compared to patients without signs of venous congestion

Conditions

• Venous Congestion
• Microcirculation
• Volume Expansion

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	fluid challenge	Signs of venous congestion and microcirculatory status will be assessed at baseline. A fluid challenge will then be performed, and microcirculation will be evaluated at the end of fluid administration and again after 30 minutes
