Comparing transesophageal Doppler corrected systolic flow time versus central venous pressure as a guide for fluid resuscitation in septic shock

Background: Aortic corrected flow time (FTc) is easily measured by Doppler techniques. Recent data using transesophageal Doppler suggest that it may predict fluid responsiveness in critical care. This use of FTc has not previously been evaluated in septic shock, and only one preliminary study has in...
