with three different bioimpedance algorithms: lack of agreement compared to thermodilution. …

Background: Although several patient characteristic, clinical, and psychological risk factors
for chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) have been identified, genetic variants including single …

Objective: To evaluate the effect of implementation of the WHO's Surgical Safety Checklist
on mortality and to determine to what extent the potential effect was related to checklist …

Objective: Dynamic preload indicators like pulse pressure variation (PPV) and stroke volume
variation (SVV) are increasingly being used for optimizing cardiac preload since they have …

Objective: To evaluate the accuracy and precision of an arterial pulse contour-based continuous
cardiac output device (Vigileo). Vigileo cardiac output (VigileoCO) was compared with …

OBJECTIVES: To determine the diagnostic value for predicting cerebral hyperperfusion
syndrome (CHS) by adding a transcranial Doppler (TCD) measurement in the early …

AWA provides a less invasive and easy-to-use alternative for CO measurement. The validity
of AWA devices has been verified in a variety of patients and circumstances, but their …

Objectives This study assessed the value of cerebral near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and
transcranial Doppler (TCD) in relation to electroencephalography (EEG) changes for the …

Background: Cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS) after carotid endarterectomy (CEA)
is a potential life-threatening complication. Therefore, early identification and treatment of …
