Abstract 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 cardiovascular outcomes, but its relevance regarding management acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) remains to be fully understood. Methods In this prospective study, patients with ADHF (AKI) were enrolled from a medical intensive...
Renal and liver congestion are associated with adverse outcomes in patients tricuspid regurgitation (TR). Currently, there no valid sonographic indicators of fluid status this population. Intra-renal venous Doppler (IRVD) is a novel method for quantifying renal but its interpretation can be challenging severe TR due to altered haemodynamics. This study explores the potential portal vein (PVD) as an alternative marker decongestion during volume removal TR. Forty-two undergoing decongestive...
