Effect of Passive Leg Raising for Fluid Responsiveness

March 8, 2016 updated by: Łukasz Szarpak, Medical University of Warsaw

Effect of Passive Leg Rasing on Changes in Volumetric Hemodynamic Parameters Induced by Fluid Removal

Changes in volumetric hemodynamic parameters and fluid overload (Cardiac Index,Stroke Volume, Thoracic Fluid Content, Systemic Vascular Resistance) were measured using a impedance cardiography (ICG) (CardioScreen 1000 - Haemodynamic Measurement System, Medis. GmbH Ilmenau) while lifting the leg at different angles. The measurement lasted 12 minutes.
