Venous Excess Doppler ultrasound assessment and loop diuretic efficiency in acute cardiorenal syndrome [PDF]

BMC Nephrology
Background Cardiorenal syndrome poses significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) grading system based on the combination of venous Doppler assessments has shown potential in predicting acute kidney injury and ...

Correlation between right atrial pressure measured via right heart catheterization and venous excess ultrasound, inferior vena cava diameter, and ultrasound-measured jugular venous pressure: a prospective observational study [PDF]

The Ultrasound Journal
Background Venous congestion is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes, necessitating accurate venous pressure assessment. Current methods, such as right heart catheterization (RHC), have limitations.

Clinical applications of the venous excess ultrasound (VExUS) score: conceptual review and case series [PDF]

The Ultrasound Journal, 2021
The importance of functional right ventricular failure and resultant splanchnic venous congestion has long been under-appreciated and is difficult to assess by traditional physical examination and standard diagnostic imaging.

Evidence of the usefulness of VEXUS score in the diagnosis and treatment of the syndrome cardiorenal: a narrative review

Spanish Journal of Medicine, 2023
Cardiorenal syndrome (CRS) includes a spectrum of disorders affecting both the heart and the kidneys in which acute or chronic dysfunction in one organ leads to acute or chronic dysfunction in the other.

Doppler identified venous congestion in septic shock: protocol for an international, multi-centre prospective cohort study (Andromeda-VEXUS) [PDF]

BMJ Open, 2023
Introduction Venous congestion is a pathophysiological state where high venous pressures cause organ oedema and dysfunction. Venous congestion is associated with worse outcomes, particularly acute kidney injury (AKI), for critically ill patients.

Relationship between point-of-care ultrasound venous congestion assessment parameters, intravenous pressure, and venous return: a post-hoc analysis of a prospective cohort study [PDF]

The Ultrasound Journal
Background A recent study suggested that point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) venous congestion assessment poorly describes the changes in venous return during a fluid challenge.

Point‐of‐care Doppler ultrasound in the management of hyponatremia: Another string to nephrologists' Bow

Clinical Case Reports, 2021
Objective assessment of fluid status is vital for the appropriate management of patients with hyponatremia. Conventional physical examination suffers from several limitations in this regard, and point‐of‐care Doppler ultrasonography can be used as an ...
