Characteristics of hemodynamic parameters after fluid resuscitation and vasoactive drugs administration in pediatric shock: A prospective observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Prior studies have shown that septic shock survivors had a normal cardiac index (CI) and systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI). However, this feature seems to be questionable in other-caused shock, since several factors are associated with the hemodynamic profile. This study aims to describe hemodynamic profiles (preload, inotropy, afterload, stroke volume, and cardiac output) after fluid resuscitation and vasoactive therapy in children with shock.

Methods

Children aged 1 month to 18 years old with shock conditions were included in this study. Fluid resuscitation was administered following the American College of Critical Care Medicine (ACCM) protocol. Hemodynamic profiles were assessed at 1 and 6 h from the start of fluid resuscitation. Grouping of the subjec
