Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants will be monitored with an arterial line (connected to LiDCO rapid and FloTrac monitors), oesophageal doppler and suprasternal doppler.
Participants will be venesected incrementally to a 20% blood loss.
The venesection will be a once only event lasting over approximately 2 hours..
FloTrac and LiDCO are arterial pulse wave contour analysis devices that derive information about the cardiovascular system from the nature of the observered arterial waveform.
Oesophageal doppler uses ultrasound to assess blood flow in the descending aorta and interperets this flow based on the patients age and body habitus.
Suprasternal doppler (USCOM) also uses doppler to assess flow but from the suprasternal notch rather than from the oesophagus.

Summary
Brief summary
this study seeks to determine if minimially invasive monitors can detect blood loss in awake patients. Our hypothesis is that the monitors will be able to detect a known blood loss of 10% of estimated blood volume.
We will test this by bleeding volunteers a known amount of blood and then looking to see if the monitors detect this blood loss.
