IVC Ultrasound Versus Central Venous Pressure for Early Detection of Hypovolemia in Shock Patients

NCT07206732 · Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 80

Summary

This study aims to compare ultrasound-guided inferior vena cava (IVC) assessment with central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring for the detection of hypovolemia in shock patients in the emergency department. The primary objective is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and clinical utility of IVC collapsibility index compared to CVP values in both early and post-resuscitation phases. The study will prospectively enroll shock patients, collect demographic and clinical data, and analyze the correlation between IVC and CVP measurements to determine their role in guiding fluid resuscitation and hemodynamic management.

Conditions

  • Shock
  • Hypovolemia
  • Circulatory Failure

Interventions

DEVICE

Ultrasound-Guided Inferior Vena Cava Assessment

This intervention involves bedside ultrasound measurement of the inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter and calculation of the IVC collapsibility/distensibility index. Assessments will be performed both at initial presentation and after fluid resuscitation in shock patients. The procedure is non-invasive, rapid, and performed according to standardized emergency ultrasound protocols, distinguishing it from invasive monitoring methods.
