The publications were subdivided according to study models. The last column contains the conclusion regarding the usefulness of the FVP method (color-coded according to the traffic light system). Abbreviations: FVP: femoral vein pressure; IAP: intra-abdominal pressure; IGP: intra-gastric pressure; IVCP: inferior vena cava pressure; IVP: intra-vesical pressure (bladder pressure); r2 degree of certainty (correlation coefficient); SVCP: superior vena cava pressure; bias: mean difference between 2 measures; precision: SD of the bias; LOA: limits of agreement; percentage error: Quotient of LOA and mean IAP.
