Overview

Prospective observational cohort study evaluates Doppler patterns and their association with kidney events and fluid responsiveness in septic patients, indicating potential for better management...

Key Points

  • This study aims to assess the association between venous Doppler patterns and kidney outcomes in septic patients.
  • Prospective observational cohort study of 110 adult patients with sepsis conducted in ICU from March 2023 to November 2024.
  • Patients underwent venous Doppler ultrasonography of the HV, PV, and IRV within 24 hours of ICU admission and were monitored for 28 days for adverse events.
  • Clinical assessments included SOFA, APACHE II, and MODS scores to evaluate disease severity.
  • Abnormal HV, PV, and IRV Doppler patterns were significantly associated with higher SOFA and APACHE II scores.
  • Fluid-responsive patients had lower SOFA, APACHE II and MODS scores, along with reduced rates of disturbed consciousness and shock.
  • No significant link between venous Doppler abnormalities and mortality was identified.
