Study Summary

In this research study we want to learn more about using non-invasive tools as a way to predict whether or not a child under general anesthesia will require and respond to fluid administration. It is important for an anesthesiologist to know if a child would respond to fluid administration so that they can provide the optimal intervention for low blood pressure and avoid unnecessary treatment.

Primary Outcome

Evaluate Lung Recruitment Maneuver as a means to predict fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated pediatric patients in the operating room.
