Clinical trials: VExUS
Hemodynamic, Fluid Responsiveness
Fluid Responsiveness and Venous Congestion Evolution During Volume Expansion
Fluid responsiveness is a critical determinant guiding fluid therapy in critically ill patients. However, excessive fluid administration can result in fluid overload, leading to venous congestion and worse clinical outcomes.
