Abstract
A novel technique was used to calculate pulse pressure variation. The algorithm reliably predicted fluid responsiveness to transfusion, with a receiver operating characteristic area under the curve of 0.89. This technique may assist clinicians in the management of fluids and vasoactive medications for premature infants.
