Antonious Anis, Juliann Shih, Kavita Batra, Irene Huang, and Mutsumi J. Kioka (all Medicine), together with Vidhani Goel (Public Health), published “Poor agreement between bioreactance and echocardiography during passive leg raising in patients with shock” in Scientific Reports, a Nature Portfolio journal.
This investigator-initiated prospective study of 30 patients with vasopressor-dependent shock found that bioreactance and echocardiography should not be considered interchangeable for assessing fluid responsiveness. Kioka served as principal investigator and corresponding author. The study was prospectively registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT07020637).
