Prevalence of systemic venous congestion assessed by Venous Excess Ultrasound Grading System (VExUS) and association with acute kidney injury in a general ICU cohort: a prospective multicentric study

ŞAŞtefan AndreiPBPierre-Alain BahrMNMaxime Nguyen

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the prevalence of systemic venous congestion and its relationship with acute kidney injury (AKI) in ICU patients.
  • Prospective multicentric design
  • Utilized VExUS scores to assess venous congestion
  • Focus on a general ICU cohort
  • Prevalence of moderate to severe venous congestion was low among ICU patients.
  • VExUS scores were not associated with the development of AKI.
  • There was no significant relationship between systemic venous congestion and 28-day mortality.

Abstract

In general ICU cohort the prevalence of moderate to severe venous congestion was low. Early assessment of systemic venous congestion using VExUS scores was not associated with the development of AKI or with 28-day mortality.
