Ultrasound G.E.L. – Inferior Vena Cava Collapsibility for Fluid Responsiveness
Ultrasound of the IVC is the people’s volume responsiveness test. The idea is that you can non-invasively tell if a patient will benefit from getting more IV fluids. Everybody wants this to work so we can have a simple test to help us in critical situations. It is more reliable in mechanically ventilated patients with a fixed tidal volume but how about the non-intubated patient? Can we trust it?

Ultrasound G.E.L. – POCUS in Sepsis
Sepsis is a disease that is prevalent and has a high mortality. We now have a lot of emphasis being placed on early diagnosis of sepsis, early antibiotics, and early source control. We know that ultrasound can find a lot of potential causes for sepsis, and it can potentially save some time in doing so. This article takes a look to see how the diagnosis made with ultrasound compares to a traditional work up – both in time and accuracy.
