Passive Leg Raising Flo Trac/Vigileo Anesthesia Hypotension

ClinConnect Summary

In this randomized controlled clinical trial, the investigators hypothesized that passive leg raising induced changes in hemodynamic parameters could predict the hypotension during anesthesia induction. To evaluate this, before anesthesia, the investigators will conduct passive leg raising test. At first, the patient's trunk was elevated 45 degrees for the first set of measurements. Then, the lower limbs were raised to a 45° angle while the patient's trunk was lowered to a supine position to measure peak CO (usually within 1-2 min). Hemodynamic profiles planned to be measured are mean arter...
