1- In case of acute RV failure, fluid infusion may decrease CO 2- In case of acute RV failure, fluid infusion may increase CO 3- In case of MV with PEEP, fluid infusion may increase CO through an increase in systemic venous return (RV preload effect) 4- In case of MV with PEEP, fluid infusion may increase CO througha beneficial effect on PEEP-inducedRV dysfunction (RV afterload effect)
Major causes of acute RV failure in critically ill patients • Sepsis-inducedmyocardial dysfunction • RV failure secondary to ARDS • Acute pulmonary embolism • Deleterious effects of MV
Challenge in acute RV failure Fluid administration and RV failure
If RV is dilated, fluid infusion→ no increase in RV stroke volume preload unresponsiveness preload responsiveness Stroke Volume Ventricular preload
D If RV is dilated, fluid infusion → large increase in RV EDP C B A RV end diastolic pressure RV end diastolic volume
If RV is dilated, fluid infusion→ no increase in RV stroke volume If RV is dilated, fluid infusion → large increase in RV EDP Biventricularinterdependence → decrease in LV stroke volume Fluid infusionnot only doesnot increasebut can evendecrease CO RV LV RV LV
But 1- Inadequate (low) RV preload can be responsible for low CO in case of acute RV failure such as pulmonary embolism Fluid infusionnot only doesnot increasebut can evendecrease CO

Mechanical ventilation and the right ventricle • Mechanical insufflation and RV • PEEP and RV • PEEP and venous return
By increasing ITP PEEP should decrease venous return and thus cardiac output Venous return CO1 CO2 Pra1 Pra2 Pms Pms2 PRA Increased PIT Increased Pabd
Mechanical ventilation and the right ventricle • Mechanical insufflation and RV • PEEP and RV • PEEP and venous return • PEEP and RV ejection
If PEEP overdistends lung and increases the end-expiratory volume above theoretical FRC, PVR should increase PVR RV FRC TLC Lung volume
If PEEP recruits lung units and increases the end-expiratory lung volume toward theoretical FRC, PVR should decrease PVR RV FRC TLC Lung volume
If the resultant effect is overdistensionPVR should increase PVR RV FRC TLC Lung volume
In this case, tidal insufflation further increases PVR to a high value PVR RV FRC TLC Lung volume
If the resultant effect is lung recruitment,PVR should decrease PVR RV FRC TLC Lung volume
In this cas, mechanical insufflation induces little change in PVR PVR RV FRC TLC Lung volume
Mechanical ventilation and the right ventricle • Mechanical insufflation and RV • PEEP and RV • PEEP and venous return The hemodynamic effects of PEEP are variable, depending on: • its capacity of recruiting or overdistending lungs • its capacity of improving arterial oxygenation • degree of airway pressure transmission • adaptative mechanisms • volume status • PEEP and RV ejection
