1494: USING ARTERIAL WAVEFORM ANALYSIS TO PREDICT FLUID RESPONSIVENESS IN CRITICALLY ILL CHILDREN.

B Introduction: b Fluid boluses are commonly administered to children with hypotension, but response is variable. At least 2hrs were required between boluses and every bolus had at least 30sec of adequate pre-bolus arterial waveform data. Fluid responsiveness (FR) was defined as increase by >= 10% in MAP from pre-bolus to average 20 min post-bolus. [Extracted from the article]
