This research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the VExUS ultrasound tool in tracking volume status changes during fluid removal in patients with end-stage renal disease.
Utilization of the VExUS ultrasound tool for monitoring intravascular volume status.
Assessment of volume changes during hemodialysis (HD) treatments.
Comparison of VExUS scores before and after fluid removal.
Fluid removal with HD resulted in measurable changes in the VExUS score.
The VExUS tool effectively captured dynamic shifts in intravascular volume in the study population.
Abstract
Fluid removal with HD was associated with changes in the VExUS score, highlighting the utility of VExUS to capture dynamic shifts in intravascular volume in patients with end-stage renal disease.
