Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Pleth variability index (PVI) is measured before and after volume expansion with 500 mL of intravenous colloid. The measurements are done before induction of general anaesthesia when a patient presents for their surgery.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 262424 0
Pleth variability index (PVI) is measured with a device called Masimo Rainbow SET Pulse CO-Oximetry. Hemodynamic variables before and after volume expansion are compared using a paired t-test. Patients are allocated to 2 groups according to the percentage change in stroke volume index (SVI) measured by oesophageal Doppler monitor after volume expansion: responders are defined as change in SVI of greater or equal to 10% and non-responders as change in SVI of less than 10%. The differences between responders and non-responders were evaluated using the Student’s t-test or the Mann-Whitney U-test, as appropriate. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for PVI was generated and the optimal cut-off value was determined by the highest Youden index (calculated as: sensitivity + specificity – 1). The Spearman rank method was used to test correlation. P-values of <0.05 were considered significant.
