Abstract
Dynamic IVC-derived parameters (IVC-CI, IVC-DI, and IVC/aorta index) and CVP are not reliable predictors of fluid responsiveness in the first 6 hours after cardiac surgery. Complexity of physiologic factors modulating cardiac performance in this group may be responsible for the difficulty in finding a plausible monitoring tool for fluid guidance. Bedside ultrasonographic measurement of IVC is unable to predict fluid responsiveness in the first 6 hours after cardiac surgery.
