Feasibility of Fluid Responsiveness Assessment in Patients at Risk for Increased Intracranial Pressure

Background: Effective fluid management is important for patients at risk of increased intracranial pressure (ICP). Maintaining constant cerebral perfusion represents a challenge, as both hypovolemia and fluid overload can severely impact patient outcomes. Fluid responsiveness tests, commonly used in critical care settings, are often deemed potentially hazardous for these patients due to the risk of disrupting cerebral perfusion. Methods: This single-center, prospective, clinical …
