Response to Fluids with Measurement of the Internal Jugular Vein by Ultrasound in Patients with Spontaneous Ventilation
Main Article Content
Abstract
Assessing intravascular volume status (IVS) in critically ill patients, especially those in shock, is crucial for appropriate fluid therapy. While central venous pressure (CVP) serves as a gold standard, limitations in predicting IVS prompt exploration of alternative methods. Ultrasound measures of the inferior vena cava (IVC) have been proposed for fluid responsiveness. However, the role of internal jugular vein (IJV) ultrasound measures in estimating IVS and their correlation with CVP in spontaneously breathing critically ill patients remains understudied. This review aims to evaluate the reliability, validity, and correlation of IJV ultrasound measures as indicators of IVS in this patient cohort.
