NCT01656954 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 7

Last updated 2016-08-17

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to understand and document measurements in heart stroke volume (the volume or amount of blood pumped per heart beat) and cardiac output (the volume or amount of blood pumped by your heart per minute) during a passive leg raise maneuver (elevation of the legs), and to determine if these measurements can predict changes in the same as a result of fluid or blood product administration.

Conditions

  • Shock
  • Hypovolemia

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Passive Leg Raise (PLR)

From the supine position, the legs are elevated to 45 degrees above the resting surface for a period of 3 minutes. At completion,the legs are lowered to the resting surface.
