ABSTRACT
Background:
Fluid replacement is considered the cornerstone of resuscitation in critically ill patients especially in patients with septic shock. However, only about 50% of critically ill hemodynamically unstable patients are responsive to fluids. Furthermore, both under resuscitation and overzealous fluid administration adversely affect the outcome. Consequently, the resuscitation of critically ill patients requires an accurate assessment of the patients intravascular volume status and their volume responsiveness
