Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Urinary output of 1 mL/kg/hour is a sign of adequate perfusion to the kidneys and is considered an indicator of fluid resuscitation effectiveness in a patient in shock. Narrowing of pulse pressure, decreasing pulmonary artery occlusive pressure, and BP within the patient's normal range may be helpful in evaluating a patient's overall condition, but they are not specific indicators of the effectiveness of fluid resuscitation.
