Abstract
In previous chapters, we have demonstrated that the initial distribution volume of glucose (IDVG) represents the central extracellular fluid (ECF) volume. However, it is not clear whether IDVG consistently reflects the state of the central ECF volume even when redistribution of fluid occurs in the absence of fluid gain or loss. As indicated by a report in which application of positive end-expiratory pressure induced a considerable decrease in cardiac output (CO) without affecting indocyanine green (ICG)-derived plasma volume (PV-ICG) (Bonnet et al. 1982), dilution volumetry cannot consistently mirror redistribution.
