Key result
IVC collapsibility index strongly inversely correlates with CVP in critically ill patients.

Do inferior vena cava (IVC) diameters and collapsibility index correlate with central venous pressure (CVP) for estimating volume status in critically ill patients?
Effect estimate: r = -0.827
p-value: p=<0.0005
IVC collapsibility index and diameters measured by ultrasound correlate significantly with central venous pressure, supporting their use for non-invasive volume status assessment in critically ill patients.
Ilyas et al. (2017) conducted a cross-sectional in Critically ill (n=100). Inferior vena cava (IVC) ultrasound vs. Central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring was evaluated on Correlation between CVP and IVC collapsibility index (r = -0.827, p=<0.0005). The inferior vena cava collapsibility index demonstrated a strong negative correlation with central venous pressure (r = -0.827, p < 0.0005) in critically ill patients.
