Abstract
Objectives: To establish normative data of plethysmograph variability index (PVI), a simple non-invasive tool to measure fluid responsiveness, in neonates.
Methods: All healthy term and late preterm neonates were enrolled. PVI was recorded by pulse-oximeter on first three days of life along with other vital parameters. Data was analysed using SPSS software.
Results: The median PVI value was noted to be 21 with a wide range. The distribution of PVI did not differ according to day of life/ gestational age/ gender/ weight for gestational age. It did not significantly correlate with heart rate, gestational age or birth weight. A weak positive correlation was noted between PVI and PI (Rho = 0.157, p <0.001).
Conclusions: PVI normative data in neonates has been presented. Serial trend of PVI values is more useful than a single value in making clinical decisions.
期刊介绍:
Indian Journal of Pediatrics (IJP), is an official publication of the Dr. K.C. Chaudhuri Foundation. The Journal, a peer-reviewed publication, is published twelve times a year on a monthly basis (January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November, December), and publishes clinical and basic research of all aspects of pediatrics, provided they have scientific merit and represent an important advance in knowledge. The Journal publishes original articles, review articles, case reports which provide new information, letters in relation to published articles, scientific research letters and picture of the month, announcements (meetings, courses, job advertisements); summary report of conferences and book reviews.
