Summary

Preoperative venous return stability and euvolemia is essential in management of morbidly obese patients. Fluid therapy regimes for patients with high BMI, especially with focus on preoperative management, are rare and not in consensus.The aim of this study was to evaluate preoperative effects of a standardized, ideal body weight (IBW) based volume-challenge on hemodynamics, stroke volume and level of venous return to the heart.

Conditions

  • Anomaly; Venous Return

Interventions

OTHER

preoperative venous return optimizing

Preoperative transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) was performed in the awake state before and after volume challenge based on 6ml colloids /kg ideal body weight.
