Fig 1 Flow of participants. PLR, passive leg raising. Responders, increase in stroke volume index measured by transpulmonary thermodilution ≥15%. British Journal of Anaesthesia 2017 118, 58-67DOI: (10.1093/bja/aew399) Copyright © 2017 The Author(s) Terms and Conditions
Fig 2 Correlation between pulse pressure variation (PPV) before volume-loading manoeuvre and percentage change in stroke volume index measured by transpulmonary thermodilution (ΔSVITPTD; n=85). The grey rectangle indicates the upper and lower limits of the uncertainty zone, the grey zone.

Fig 3 Box plots and individual values of pulse pressure variation obtained with the PiCCO system (PPVPiCCO) and with the CNAP device (PPVCNAP) in responders (Rs) and non-responders (NRs) before volume-loading manoeuvres (passive leg raising and first fluid bolus of crystalloid). The dashed line indicates the calculated threshold value of PPVCNAP (9%) and of PPVPiCCO (13%). The ‘grey zone’ is indicated with the grey rectangle (PPVCNAP, 7–10%; PPVPiCCO, 10–13%).
