Study Summary

The goal of this study is to identify in patients requiring active fluid resuscitation and mechanical ventilation for circulatory shock, can a controlled increase in intrathoracic pressure (either by positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) or tidal volume (TV)) predict responsiveness to additional fluid resuscitation. We hypothesize that a temporary, physiologically-safe increase in positive-end expiratory pressure (PEEP) and/or a temporary increase in tidal volume (from 6 cc/kg predicted body weight (PBW) to 8 cc/kg PBW) in patients requiring invasive mechanical ventilation will predict fluid responsiveness based upon an assessment of the change in pulse pressure and stroke volume variation.

Primary Outcome

Temporary increase in intrathoracic pressure (PEEP or TV) will predict fluid responsiveness using an absolute increase in pulse pressure variation by 3% or more.
