No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In this study, the investigators aimed to evaluate the incidence of vena cava inferior diamater on ultrasound guidance of intravascular volume before diagnosis of contrast

\- enhanced CT for diagnostic purposes in ileus patients and to investigate the incidence and risk of developing contrast nephropathy due to contrast - enhanced CT.

Conditions

  • Ileus; Mechanical
  • Contrast-induced Nephropathy

Interventions

PROCEDURE

inferior vena cava ultrasound

Place the patient in the supine position. The degree of elevation of the head of the bed has not been shown to make a significant difference in measurements. The diameter of the IVC for calculation of the caval index should be measured 2 cm from where it enters the right atrium .An alternative way to visualize respiratory variation is to use M-mode, with the beam overlying the IVC 2 cm from the right atrium.The inspiratory and expiratory diameter can then be measured on the M-mode image, at the smallest and largest locations, respectively.
