Stroke Volume Variation (SVV): Predicting Fluid Responsiveness in Critically Ill Patients

I have covered many things resuscitation and fluid responsiveness thus far on this page. Fluid responsiveness has been defined as a patient given either a certain amount of fluid or a passive leg raise to assess how that will increase the cardiac output/index or stroke volume. This post will be about stroke volume variation (SVV) …
