Episode description
Measurement of intravascular volume has only recently studied, covering the use of diuretics and filtration during dialysis.
Dr Matthew Kaptein of Loma Linda University reviews available evidence that may validate the IVC collapsibility index for measuring relative intravascular volume.
He has developed a calculator tool which will help doctors navigate this important step for optimizing the intravascular volume of their patients to offer more effective treatments.
