The objective of this study was to test whether non-invasive assessment of respiratory stroke volume variation (ΔrespSV) by oesophageal Doppler monitoring (ODM) can predict fluid responsiveness during surgery in a mixed population. The predictive value of ΔrespSV was evaluated using a grey zone approach. ⋯ ΔrespSV predicted fluid responsiveness accurately during surgery over a ΔrespSV range between 14% and 15%. In contrast, FTc did not predict fluid responsiveness.
