Utility of POCUS in estimating blood volume in neurocritical patients with hyponatremia, in the Polyvalent Intensive Care Unit of the Viedma Clinical Hospital [PDF]

Introduction: Hyponatremia is one of the most common hydroelectrolytic disorders in patients with neurocritical pathology. Estimating blood volume in critically ill patients with hyponatremia is a challenge, and this is where point-of-care ultrasound ...

Infection dynamics of four gill Monogenean species from Tilapia zillii (Gervais, 1848) in man-made Lake Ayame I, Côte d’Ivoire [PDF]

, 2015
The study of the gills of 359 Tilapia zillii, which were caught between August 2004 and July 2005, have been investigated in the Ayame man-made lake (Côte d’Ivoire), so as to collect first data on the population dynamics of the Monogeneans parasites in a

Liver stiffness measurement for non‐invasive assessment of central venous pressure in patients with heart failure: A multicentre pilot study

European Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 27, Issue 11, Page 2282-2291, November 2025.
Liver stiffness measurement for central venous pressure assessment. AUC, area under the curve; BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; CVP, central venous pressure; HF, heart failure; LSM, liver stiffness measurement; LVEF, left ventricular ejection fraction. Abstract Aims Central venous pressure (CVP) is an important variable in assessing heart

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

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.

Reliability of point-of-care ultrasound to evaluate fluid tolerance performed by critical care residents

European Journal of Medical Research, 2023
Background Patients with hypotension usually receive intravenous fluids, but only 50% will respond to fluid administration. We aimed to assess the intra and interobserver agreement to evaluate fluid tolerance through diverse ultrasonographic methods ...

Plasma Exchange Transfusion for Refractory High Anion Gap Metabolic Acidosis

Case Reports in Critical Care, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Background High anion gap metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) is common in critical illness. The GOLD MARK mnemonic summarizes conventional etiologies, but a subset of cases remain unexplained and refractory to standard therapy. Case Presentation We report two ICU patients with severe, refractory HAGMA. Case 1 was a 67‐year‐old man with profound lactic acidosis

Evaluation Of Congestion Levels in Septic Patients Admitted to Critical Care Units with a Combined Venous Excess-Lung Ultrasound Score (VExLUS) – a Research Protocol

POCUS Journal, 2023
Sepsis is defined as a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a dysregulated host response to infection with a high mortality rate. Septic shock is a subset of sepsis with manifest circulatory dysfunction (use of vasopressors and persistent ...

Bioimpedance analysis predicts worsening events in outpatients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 3892-3900, December 2024.
Abstract Aims Heart failure (HF) with reduced left ventricle ejection fraction (LVEF) is an entity with poor prognosis characterized by decompensations. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is used to assess volume overload (VO) and may be useful to identify apparently stable HF outpatients at risk of decompensation.

Doppler study of portal vein and renal venous velocity predict the appropriate fluid response to diuretic in ICU: a prospective observational echocardiographic evaluation

Critical Care, 2022
Background Fluid overload and venous congestion are associated with morbi-mortality in the ICU (intensive care unit). Administration of diuretics to correct the fluid balance is common, although there is no strong relationship between the consequent ...
