Use of the Aortic Time-velocity Integral Via Suprasternal Ultrasound to Search Preload Dependence in Paediatric Surgery : Kid's Fluid Management (FM)

After major surgery, fluid overload is associated with an increase of morbidity and mortality. Fluid administration should therefore be given wisely. However, there is a paucity of monitor to predict preload dependence in paediatric anaesthesia. The aim of this study is to determine if VTI variation, measured through the suprasternal window, with a cardiac doppler probe, can predict preload dependence. Indeed, cardiac probe are present in most operating room and suprasternal window is reachable in most surgical case, which should allow VTI monitoring for the vast majority of our patient.
