Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Predictive capacity of pulse pressure (PP), measured via invasive arterial line, to detect low stroke volume (SV) as assessed by bedside echocardiography (LVOT-VTI) in critically ill patients.  its a cross-sectional study, the observations and outcome (i.e the predictive capacity of Pulse pressure ) is determined at the same time point. 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
Predictive capacity of pulse pressure to detect low stroke volume in subgroups (ARDS, postoperative states, septic shock, etc.)  Single measurement during ICU stay 
Influence of demographic, clinical, and technical factors (mechanical ventilation, vasoactive medication, age, arterial line site) on the predictive capacity of PP to estimate SV  Single measurement during ICU stay 
Ability of pulse pressure to track stroke volume changes during dynamic maneuvers (passive leg raise or fluid challenge)  Before and after maneuver

Brief Summary  

This multicenter, cross-sectional, observational study aims to evaluate whether bedside pulse pressure assessment can reliably detect low stroke volume or track changes in stroke volume among critically ill adult patients. Pulse pressure, easily measured from routine arterial waveforms, may serve as a simple surrogate for stroke volume variation in resource-limited intensive care settings.

All participating ICUs will collect simultaneous hemodynamic data, including pulse pressure and reference stroke volume measurements obtained through validated methods such as echocardiography or advanced monitoring devices. The study will analyze the correlation between pulse pressure and stroke volume, assess the ability of pulse pressure to identify low stroke volume states, and explore factors affecting this relationship

The study does not involve any intervention or alteration of clinical management. Results are expected to enhance understanding of simple, non-invasive hemodynamic indicators and support better bedside decision-making in the management of critically ill patients.
