Combination Assessment of Volume Status (CAVS)
Published Wednesday, May 17, 2023Early and aggressive fluid resuscitation in shock is associated with improved patient outcome and mortality. However, there is a clear correlation between cumulative fluid balance and mortality. There is, therefore, a benefit to adopting a systematic approach to fluid resuscitation to determine which patients would benefit from a fluid bolus...

eLVOTD: Estimation of the Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Diameter
Published Monday, May 15, 2017The left ventricular outflow tract diameter (LVOTD) is one of two measurements needed to calculate cardiac stroke volume and cardiac output (CO). CO is an important measure of heart function and can help determine the need for inotropic support of the heart. In combination with mean arterial blood pressure, CO can also be used to determine the...
