Filter by:The study is aimed at comparing peripherial venous pressure as an indicator of central venous pressure in post operative surgical patients.
While central venous pressure measurement is used to guide fluid management in high risk surgical patients during perioperative period, the relationship between the value of central venous pressure and organ dysfunction and prognosis of high-risk operating patients is unknow. In this study, we conducted a retrospective study of the relationship between the initial levels of CVP with organ dysfunction, the severity of illness, the length of ICU stay, and prognosis of critically ill patients.
This is a prospective, comparative, internally controlled device study that will enroll a total of 100 adult patients that require the placement of central venous catheter and CVP monitoring to assess volume status and cardiac preload.
Recent studies indicated the central venous pressure (CVP) as a prognostic marker. Therefore, we retrospectively analyzed the CVP on admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) in cardiac surgery patients regarding its prognostic value for morbidity and mortality.
The purpose of this study is to establish the accuracy of a non-invasive device that uses near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) to estimate central venous pressure (CVP) comparing it to physical exam and invasive hemodynamic measurement via right heart catheterization (RHC).
This protocol is a prospective interventional pilot study at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia to determine whether or not two increments of sternal pressure known to occur during "leaning" in CPR affects hemodynamic function, coronary perfusion pressures, and intrathoracic pressure in order to inform the resuscitation community on reasonable target pressures to avoid "leaning" on the chest during pediatric CPR.
The Trendelenburg position is used to distend the central veins, improving both success and safety of vascular cannulation. The purpose of this study is to measure the cross-sectional area of the internal jugular vein (IJV) in three different positions, using surface ultrasound.
Ultrasound may be useful for noninvasively determining the central venous pressure. We intend to compare the clinical examination of the neck veins; ultrasound delineation of the internal jugular vein; and the central venous pressure measured with an intravascular catheter.
To study the validity and reliability of estimation of the central venous pressure by measurement of internal jugular vein size using 2-dimensional ultrasound.
