Intensivist Use of Hand-Carried Ultrasonography to Measure IVC Collapsibility in Estimating Intravascular Volume Status: Correlations with CVP

TL;DR: Measurements of IVC-CI by INBU can provide a useful guide to noninvasive volume status assessment in SICU patients, and appears to correlate best with CVP in the setting of low (<0.20) and high (>0.60) collapsibility ranges.
Journal ArticleDOI
