Inferior Vena Cava Collapsibility Index in Severe Sepsis

NCT02195830 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 112

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is debate regarding the use of non invasive (ultrasound assessed) parameters of fluid volume status in patients with sepsis.

To establish the role of inferior vena cava ultrasound in guiding fluid resuscitation we first need to define the inferior vena cava collapsibility index in this population of patients.

The research question is: In adult patients with sepsis, severe sepsis and septic shock what is the mean baseline inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI) prior to fluid resuscitation.

Conditions

  • Sepsis
  • Severe Sepsis
  • Septic Shock

Interventions

OTHER

Ultrasound of the inferior vena cava

B mode ultrasound of the inferior vena cava Measurements taken 2cm from the hepatic vein IVC junction or 3cm from the right atrium IVC junction
