Assessing the Diagnostic Accuracy of Corrected Flow Time (FTc) and Pleth Variability Index (PVI) as Predictors of Fluid Responsiveness in Patients in the Prone Position Using the Jackson Table

Philips Intelivue MP70 monitor (Intellivue MP70, Philips medical Systems, Suresnes, France) -a radial arterial cannula is inserted and arterial pressure waveforms are monitored through Philips Intelivue MP70 monitor. In the monitor, PPVauto is displayed in real-time. It is based on automatic detection algorithms, kernel smoothing, and rank-order filters.

PVI is the measure of the dynamic changes in the Perfusion Index (PI) that occur during one or more complete respiratory cycles. A rainbow Pulse CO-Oximetry sensor is attached to the patient's finger and the PVI is displayed in real-time on the Root monitor.
