Baseline values of Cardiac Index, stroke volume and systemic vascular resistance of ED patients presenting with uncomplicated sepsis stratified by their response (>15% increase) in Cardiac Index after a passive leg raise (n=30)
| Responders (n=7) | Non-responders (n=23) | P value | |
| Median (IQR) | |||
| Baseline CI (L/min/m2) | 3.3 (1.9–3.8) | 3.3 (2.7–4.0) | 0.40 |
| Baseline SV (mL) | 63 (44–69) | 61 (49–80) | 0.73 |
| Baseline SVR (dyn.s/cm5) | 800 (750–1354) | 816 (719–1095) | 0.88 |
SV stroke volume; CI, Cardiac Index; SVR, systemic vascular resistance.
