Quantifying systemic congestion with Point-Of-Care ultrasound: development of the venous excess ultrasound grading system

The Ultrasound Journal, 2020
Background Organ congestion is a mediator of adverse outcomes in critically ill patients. Point-Of-Care ultrasound (POCUS) is widely available and could enable clinicians to detect signs of venous congestion at the bedside.

A systematic review of the scientific evidence of venous supercharging in autologous breast reconstruction with abdominally based flaps

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2023
Background Abdominally based free flaps are commonly used in breast reconstruction. A frequent complication is venous congestion, which might contribute to around 40% of flap failures. One way to deal with it is venous supercharging.

Ratio of Blood Glucose Level Change Measurement for Flap Monitoring

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2018
Background:. In a setting of flap congestion, early detection and rapid reexploration are important. Some studies described the efficacy of blood glucose measurement for flap monitoring.1 However, the sensitivity and specificity of this method were not ...

Impacts of right ventricular function and venous congestion on renal response during depletion in acute heart failure

ESC Heart Failure, 2020
Venous congestion is a major determinant of worsening renal function (WRF) in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), particularly when associated with right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. Whether the individual impacts of hemodynamic variables on renal

Comprehensive overview of the venous disorder known as pelvic congestion syndrome

Annals medicus, 2021
Pelvic venous disorders (PeVD) also known as Pelvic Congestion Syndrome (PCS) affect a great number of women worldwide and often remain undiagnosed. Gynecological symptoms caused by vascular background demand a holistic approach for appropriate diagnosis.
