Impact of individual characteristics on sonographic IVC diameter and the IVC diameter/aorta diameter index.
BACKGROUND The inferior vena cava (IVC) parameters, including its diameter and collapsibility index have been evaluated for fluid status for over 30 years, but little is known about the impacts of patient characteristics on IVC parameters. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships between individual patient characteristics and IVC parameters in healthy Chinese adult volunteers....
متن کاملVascular pedicle width in acute lung injury: correlation with intravascular pressures and ability to discriminate fluid status
INTRODUCTION Conservative fluid management in patients with acute lung injury (ALI) increases time alive and free from mechanical ventilation. Vascular pedicle width (VPW) is a non-invasive measurement of intravascular volume status. The VPW was studied in ALI patients to determine the correlation between VPW and intravascular pressure measurements and whether VPW could predict fluid status. ...
متن کاملEndovascular management of IVC syndrome after IVC filter placement.
Approximately 60,000-100,000 Americans die from deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism annually, while the overall estimate of individuals affected is 30,000-600,000. Inferior vena cava (IVC) filter placement has emerged as a break-through endovascular technique which has gained increasing acceptance and has probably saved thousands of lives by preventing fatal thromboembolic events. Howe...
متن کاملIVC: Imperceptible Video Communication∗
Visible light communication (VLC) has received significant attention recently because it facilitates data communication in scenarios with high user density, where conventional wired and wireless technologies cannot work well due to user mobility and channel contention. However, the existing VLC techniques require specialized hardware for communication to take place, and therefore they are consi...
متن کاملSporadic Renal Angiomyolipoma with IVC Extension.
Angiomyolipomas (AML) are the most common mesenchymal renal neoplasms arising in the cortex or medulla. Intra-renal and retroperitoneal hemorrhages have been frequently reported. AML can exceptionally involve the renal vein and inferior vena cava. We report a case with extension into the inferior vena cava.
