Our plan is to 1) order an echocardiogram to evaluate LV function, 2) check a central venous oxygen saturation, and 3) look for evidence of pulse pressure variation on the A-line waveform. Pending the results of these studies, we will bolus the patient with 1L of LR over the next 20 minutes, aiming to increase the mean arterial pressure to 65 mmHg. ................
