Abstract Background Preload responsive postoperative patients with signs of inadequate organ perfusion are commonly assumed to be hypovolemic and therefore treated with fluids to increase preload. However, preload is influenced not only by blood volume, but also by venous vascular tone and the contribution of these factors to preload responsiveness in this setting is unknown. Based on this, the objective of this study was to investigate blood volume status in preload-responsive postoperative patients. Methods Data from a clinical trial including postoperative patients after major abdominal surgery were analyzed. Patients with signs of inadequate organ perfusion and with data from a passive leg raising test (PLR) were included. An increase in pulse pressure by ≥ 9% was used to identify patients likely to be preload responsive. Blood volume was calculated from plasma volume measured using radiolabelled albumin and hematocrit. Patients with a blood volume of at least 10% above or below estimated normal volume were considered hyper- and hypovolemic, respectively. Results A total of 63 patients were included in the study. Median (IQR) blood volume in the total was 57 (50–65) ml/kg, and change in pulse pressure after PLR was 14 (7–24)%. A total of 43 patients were preload responsive. Of these patients, 44% were hypovolemic, 28% euvolemic and 28% hypervolemic. Conclusions A large fraction of postoperative patients with signs of hypoperfusion that are likely to be preload responsive, are hypervolemic. In these patients, treatments other than fluid administration may be a more rational approach to increase cardiac output. Trial registration EudraCT 2013-004446-42 |
