About this trial
The Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) reflects the balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic tone. It is based on a specific interpretation of the R-R interval variation. During fluid removal by net ultrafiltration in patients with fluid overload and continuous renal replacement therapy, some data suggest that haemodynamic variation could be induced by the autonomic nervous system. The study aims to investigate ANI variations in this context and their association with the haemodynamic variations observed.
