Fluid Responsiveness Using TFU (Transfontanel Ultrasound) in Children With Congenital Heart Disease

April 4, 2018 updated by: Jin-Tae Kim, Seoul National University Hospital

Prediction of Fluid Responsiveness Using TFU (Transfontanel Ultrasound) in Children With Congenital Heart Disease After Cardiac Surgery

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of TFU (transfontanel ultrasound)for the prediction of fluid responsiveness in children undergoing congenital heart surgery.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment
Hypovolemia
patients with hypovolemic signs including hypotension, decreased central venous pressure (less than 5mmHg), and decreased urine output
The respiratory variation of the carotid artery blood flow peak velocity was measured using TFU before and after the fluid administration (10ml/kg for 20 min.)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure

Time Frame: before and after fluid administration (20min)
before and after fluid administration (20min)
change in pleth variability index after volume expansion
Time Frame: before and after fluid administration (20min)
before and after fluid administration (20min)
change in respiratory variation of aorta flow blood flow peak velocity after volume expansion
Time Frame: before and after fluid administration (20min)
before and after fluid administration (20min)
