Non-Invasive Cardiac Output Monitoring and Fluid Management. A brief discussion

Our understanding of fluid management, like many topics in healthcare, seems to be ever-changing.  An entire course could be dedicated to addressing the topic of fluid replacement, so this is a brief introduction.  In today's episode, I discuss the NICOM, their reliability, and how they are used in fluid management.  I also discuss what current literature recommends regarding fluid management (goal-directed fluid therapy, ERAS protocols, and general fluid management).
