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.

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 ...

Accuracy of venous excess ultrasound score versus central venous pressure to assess volume status in patients with severe sepsis: A Prospective clinical study [PDF]
Background: Fluid resuscitation in sepsis requires a transition from early restoration of perfusion to repeated assessment of whether additional fluid remains physiologically appropriate.

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 ...

ABSTRACT Ultrafiltration during hemodialysis is the most hemodynamically stressful intervention dialysis patients endure, yet its prescription relies on interdialytic weight gain and clinical gestalt. Rates exceeding 13 mL/kg/h carry substantially higher cardiovascular mortality, and recurrent intradialytic hypotension drives myocardial stunning ...

Background: Systemic venous congestion is a key pathophysiological mechanism in congestive heart failure and is strongly associated with worsening renal function, diuretic resistance, and adverse clinical outcomes.

Narrative Review on History of Point‐of‐Care Ultrasound Training in Critical Care
ABSTRACT Introduction/Purpose Point‐of‐care ultrasound (PoCUS) has evolved from bulky radiology‐based machines to a core bedside tool in critical care. Training processes have shifted from informal apprenticeship to structured curricula, yet challenges in standardisation, competence assessment and accreditation persist.

Precision Therapy in Sepsis: From Phenotyping to Treatable Traits
Sepsis remains a major cause of mortality and organ failure, yet its management continues to rely largely on standardized treatment bundles despite marked heterogeneity in immune responses, endothelial injury, metabolic dysfunction, pathogen burden, and trajectories of organ failure.

Diuretic Response Prediction With MELD Score in Heart Failure
ABSTRACT Background Heart failure (HF) is still an important disease with high mortality rates worldwide. HF treatment is also difficult due to different phenotypes. Diuretic response (DR) is one of the main differences across these subgroups. Novel urinary parameters are used for DR prediction.

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
