AbstractStudies have demonstrated that optimising the circulating volume reduces morbidity after major surgery. This optimisation is usually achieved through maximisation of the stroke volume guided by oesophageal Doppler. New monitoring parameters of preload responsiveness using information from the arterial trace are now showing some promise in achieving the same goal. The present commentary examines these new parameters with respect to improving outcomes for the high-risk surgical patient.
