This randomized control trial aims to assess if Plethysmographic Variability Index (PVI)-based therapy improves patient outcome in terms of reduced amount and type of fluid used, lower postoperative lactate levels, lesser increment in sodium and chloride levels, improvement of blood gases in term of pH and BE, and reduction in serum creatinine as compared to standard monitoring based therapy in patients with severe traumatic brain injury.
