Cardiac filling pressures including the central venous pressure and pulmonary artery occlusion pressure have traditionally been used to guide fluid management. However, studies performed over the ...

The central venous pressure (CVP) is frequently used to guide fluid management. Indeed, two surveys of European intensivists/anesthesiologists reported that over 90% ...

As low central venous pressure (CVP) is believed to reduce blood loss during liver resection, CVP monitoring is standard practice during living-donor hepatectomies. To see whether this rationale ...
