Excerpt
Indocyaninegreen (ICG) clearance can be measured with the LiMON® device (Pulsion, Germany) and is expressed by the plasma disappearance rate (PDR) for ICG (normal value 18–25%) and the residual ICG after 15 min (R15, normal value 0–10%). In this study we investigated the correlation between PDR/R15 and IAP, SOFA score, and classic liver function tests in mixed ICU patients. …
