this video will give you knowledge about " How to set PPV which is Pulse Pressure Variation on Philips Patient Monitor MP20

The Pulse Pressure Variation (PPV) is a dynamic measurement used primarily in critical care and anesthesia to assess a patient's fluid responsiveness — essentially, how likely they are to respond positively to fluid administration. PPV is especially helpful in managing patients who are mechanically ventilated and may require precise fluid management, such as those with sepsis, undergoing major surgery, or experiencing significant blood loss.

Understanding the Pulse Pressure and PPV

Pulse Pressure (PP) is the difference between the systolic and diastolic blood pressures. It’s a measure of the stroke volume ejected by the heart during each cardiac cycle.

Pulse Pressure Variation (PPV) is the degree of fluctuation in pulse pressure with the respiratory cycle, which can provide insights into the heart’s preload status (volume of blood returning to the heart). In simple terms, PPV quantifies how much the pulse pressure changes with each breath, which can indicate how well the heart is handling the current blood volume.
