Objective: To systematically evaluate the impact of the Trendelenburg position on hemodynamic parameters in adult patients.
Design: Systematic literature review and meta-analysis using PubMed and Medline.
Setting: All prospective interventional studies comparing the hemodynamic characteristics of patients in the horizontal supine position and Trendelenburg position.
