A Comparison of Stroke Volume Variation Measured by Vigileo™/FloTrac™ System and Aortic Doppler Echocardiography

BACKGROUND:The goal of this study was to compare stroke volume variation (SVV) assessed from a peripheral artery with the Vigileo™/FloTrac™ system (SVV-FloTrac) with SVV derived close to the heart by aortic Doppler (SVV-Doppler).METHODS:Thirty patients undergoing liver transplantation underwent simu
