Clinical Trial: Role of End-Tidal CO2 During Passive Leg Raising to Predict Fluid Responsiveness in ICU

U.S., Dec. 27 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07304648) titled 'Role of End-Tidal CO2 During Passive Leg Raising to Predict Fluid Responsiveness in ICU' on Dec. 13.

Brief Summary: This prospective observational study evaluates whether monitoring changes in exhaled carbon dioxide (End-Tidal CO2 or EtCO2) during a "Passive Leg Raising" (PLR) test can reliably predict fluid responsiveness in critically ill patients.

In the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), fluid management is a critical balance; while fluid is necessary for tissue perfusion, overload can lead to severe complications. Traditional static measurements (like central venous pressure) are often unreliable for guiding therapy. Dynamic tests lik...
