VExUS Protocol Along Cardiorenal Syndrome: An Updated Review [PDF]

Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of hospitalization, often leading to acute kidney injury (AKI) due to venous congestion. The Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) score, introduced by Beaubin-Souligny, is a bedside tool for assessing congestion severity ...

Portal Vein Doppler in Venous Congestion: Incremental Value, Dynamic Decongestion Monitoring, and Clinical Decision-Making in Heart Failure [PDF]

Studies in Multidisciplinary Medical Research
Systemic venous congestion in heart failure (HF) is an active driver of organ dysfunction and adverse outcomes. Conventional assessment tools lack sensitivity for subclinical congestion and specificity for venous hypertension.

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

Effectiveness of VExUS scores for predicting mortality among patients followed up in the emergency department due to congestive heart failure: a prospective cross-sectional study

BMC Emergency Medicine
Background/Aim Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) is a major contributor to emergency department (ED) visits and mortality. Traditional diagnostic tools may not fully capture systemic venous congestion, which is a critical factor in CHF prognosis. The Venous

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.

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.
