Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) are high-risk extensive abdominal surgery. During surgery, less invasive methods for cardiac index (CI) measurement have been widely used in operating theater. We investigated the accuracy of CI derived from different (FroTrac, ProAQT, ClearSight, arterial pressure waveform analysis [APWA], PICCO) compared them to transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTD) during CRS HIPEC operative room intensive care unit (ICU).
