No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Bedside ultrasonographic assessment of IVC size and IVC collapsibility index can be used to guide the management of patients with acute kidney injury with and without volume overload in the intensive care unit

Conditions

  • Acute Renal Failure

Interventions

OTHER

Ultrasound for measurement of Inferior Vena Cava size.

Focused bedside ultrasound will be performed for each patient as part of their routine care and initial assessment. The IVC size will be measured at the subcostal window, during inspiration and expiration, using the Sonosite cardiac probe P-21 (5-1 MHZ). The measurement is obtained by applying the M-mode, perpendicular to the IVC axis and 2 cm caudal from its junction with the right atrium.
