Relationship between high VExUS score and echocardiographic parameters: a systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

Journal of Anesthesia, Analgesia and Critical Care
Background The Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) score integrates inferior vena cava diameter and venous Doppler findings to quantify congestion. Findings are conflicting regarding whether higher VExUS grades reflect worse cardiac function. We conducted a

Association between venous excess ultrasound score and major adverse kidney events at 30 days in critically ill elderly patients: a multicenter prospective cohort study [PDF]

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundVenous congestion is common in critically ill patients and is associated with adverse outcomes, including acute kidney injury (AKI). Elderly patients may be especially susceptible to congestion-related organ dysfunction due to reduced ...

Deresuscitation Informed by Ultrasound in Patients With Septic Shock Trial: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Study. [PDF]

J Ultrasound Med
Objectives The venous excess ultrasound (VExUS) can be used at the point‐of‐care to identify venous overload and end‐organ congestion in an effort to individually tailor resuscitation and deresuscitation in patients with septic shock. Methods We conducted a pilot randomized controlled feasibility trial of VExUS‐guided fluid management in adult patients

Prevalence of systemic venous congestion assessed by Venous Excess Ultrasound Grading System (VExUS) and association with acute kidney injury in a general ICU cohort: a prospective multicentric study

Critical Care, 2023
Background The importance of assessing venous congestion in ICU patients is widely acknowledged, but its study is hampered by the lack of a practical evaluation tool.

Intra-Dialytic Hypotension and the VExUS Assessment in Hospitalized Patients: A Prospective Cohort Study

Cardiorenal Medicine
Introduction: Predicting tolerance to fluid removal is particularly challenging in hospitalized, acutely ill patients. This study evaluated the association between the Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) and IDHE in hospitalized patients. Methods:

VExUS Point-of-Care Ultrasound Tool to Detect Changes in Volume Status [PDF]

JACC: Advances
Background: Venous excess ultrasound score (VExUS) is an emerging point-of-care ultrasound tool to evaluate venous congestion using inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter and hepatic vein pulse-wave Doppler.

Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) score and short-term outcomes in ambulatory patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction: an exploratory study

Egyptian Heart Journal
Background Venous congestion significantly contributes to morbidity and mortality in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). The Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) score, a multi-parameter sonographic assessment of systemic venous congestion,

Assessment of Congestion in Heart Failure Using VExUS: Current Evidence, Limitations and Clinical Perspectives [PDF]

Life
Background: Systemic venous congestion is a key driver of organ dysfunction in heart failure (HF), yet accurate non-invasive quantification remains challenging. Recognizing residual congestion is critical, since it predicts HF readmissions and mortality.
