Should we use diastolic function parameters to determine preload responsiveness in cardiac surgery? A pilot study

Abstract Background Left ventricular (LV) diastolic function (DF) may play an important role in predicting fluid responsiveness. However, few studies assessed the role of diastolic function in predicting fluid responsiveness. The aim of this pilot study was to assess whether parameters of right and...
