Estimated Plasma Volume (ePV) in Critical Care
New studies have reinforced the clinical importance of ePV as a diagnostic and prognostic tool in many clinical settings, particularly critical care. The ePV can be calculated using several formulas, mostly based on hemoglobin and hematocrit and sometimes body weight. It has been shown to provide useful prognostic information in patients with heart failure, myocardial infarction, renal failure, and recently acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Additionally, it has been associated with all-cause mortality and mortality from cancer in large cohort studies. This webinar will review the epidemiology, predictive power and potential clinical uses of ePV, especially in critically ill patients. We will discuss the origin of PV measurement, other techniques for PV measurement, and explore the pathophysiology of how PV can affect various disease processes, with special focus on ARDS and acute illnesses.
