Ultrasound Assessment of Internal Jugular Vein Distensibility as a Marker of Residual Congestion in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure
Background: Residual systemic congestion is common after treatment for acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF) and remains difficult to assess non-invasively. We investigated internal jugular vein distensibility (DIJV) as a dynamic marker of residual congestion and its association with established congestion parameter...
