1. Assessment of FR when VE is deemed necessary by the treating physician in PACU or on the surgical floor Prior to administration of a non-emergent fluid bolus (VE) ordered by the treating physician, nurses will additionally page the research assistant who will measure ccNexfin CO-Trek parameters as described earlier, and then administer a fluid challenge and measure FR. For simplicity, a single pager number will be used, and it will be affixed to the front of the chart of patients included in the study. A copy of the study protocol will also be given to nurses in the PACU and on the surgical floors for perusal.
