Evaluation of Fluid Responsiveness: Is Photoplethysmography a Noninvasive Alternative?

Background. Goal-directed fluid therapy reduces morbidity and mortality in various clinical settings. Respiratory variations in photoplethysmography are proposed as a noninvasive alternative to predict fluid responsiveness during mechanical ventilation. This paper aims to critically evaluate current...
