Randomized Controlled Trial
Protective effect of sevoflurane on vascular endothelial glycocalyx in patients undergoing heart valve surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass: A randomised controlled trial.
The glycocalyx plays an important physiological role and may be damaged during cardiopulmonary bypass. Sevoflurane can protect the glycocalyx; however, its relevance in a clinical setting is unknown. ⋯ Sevoflurane can decrease glycocalyx degradation in patients undergoing heart valve surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass.

Observational Study
Prediction of fluid responsiveness using lung recruitment manoeuvre in paediatric patients receiving lung-protective ventilation: A prospective observational study.
Pressure-based dynamic variables are poor predictors of fluid responsiveness in children, and their predictability is expected to reduce further during lung-protective ventilation with a low tidal volume. ⋯ www.clinicaltrials.gov identifier: NCT03184961.
