Objective: To determine the correlation of sonographic evaluation of inferior vena cava
diameter and its collapsibility index with central venous pressure in both spontaneously …

Background Ultrasound evaluation of inferior vena cava and internal jugular vein diameters
predicts the intravascular volume status in critical patients. The aim of the present study was …

Objectives This study aims to determine the site of and the best sonographic method for
measurement of inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter in volume status monitoring. Methods …

Background: The aim of fluid resuscitation is to increase stroke volume, yet this effect is
observed in only 50% of patients. Prediction of fluid responsiveness may allow fluid …

Objective: To determine intravascular fluid status in critically ill patients using inferior vena
cava diameter and correlating it with central venous pressure. Study Design: Cross sectional …

Background Until now, no valid alternative exists for predicting central venous pressure
(CVP) with lower invasiveness than central venous catheter. Purpose To explore inferior …

Background: Assessment of intravascular volume status is an essential parameter for the
diagnosis and management of critically-ill patients. Generally, central venous pressure …

PURPOSE: The fluid volume status of a patient is difficult to assess clinically. The aim of this
study was to compare the ultrasound estimation of the height of the right internal jugular vein …

Introduction Early assessment of volume status is paramount in critically ill patients. Central
venous pressure (CVP) measurement and ultrasound assessment of the inferior vena cava …

Assessment of the size of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and its change in diameter in
response to respiration have been investigated as a tool to screen for severe hypovolaemia …
