Organiser

Evaluating a patient’s intravascular volume status is an essential component of the overall assessment of a patient and is critical to establishing a treatment plan. This is especially true for critically ill patients, septic patients, postoperative patients, and patients with heart failure or kidney disease, to name a few. This webinar will review the methods available for assessing plasma volume status (PVS) and the evidence for their clinical utility.

Learning Objectives

Discuss the importance of establishing the volume status of patients.
Review the clinical decision making affected by a patient’s volume status
Review the concept of “Goal Directed Therapy” in resuscitation and its benefits and pitfalls
Discuss the implications and adverse outcomes of incorrect assessment of volume status, including acute kidney injury, hypo- and hyper-tension, congestion, etc.
Evaluate the current methods at our disposal for determining volume status and plasma volume including invasive and non-invasive methods, and the pros and cons of each
