Focused ultrasound of the caudal vena cava in dogs with cavitary ...
Ultrasonographic indices of the inferior vena cava are useful for predicting right heart filling pressures in people. To determine whether ultrasonographic indices of caudal vena cava (CVC) differ between dogs with right-sided CHF (R-CHF), left-sided CHF (L-CHF), and noncardiac causes of cavitary effusion (NC).
Focused ultrasound of the caudal vena cava in dogs with cavitary …
May 28, 2021 · Ultrasonographic indices of the inferior vena cava are useful for predicting right heart filling pressures in people. To determine whether ultrasonographic indices of caudal vena cava (CVC) differ between dogs with right-sided CHF (R-CHF), left-sided CHF (L-CHF), and noncardiac causes of cavitary effusion (NC).
Evaluation of caudal vena cava size using computed tomography in dogs …
In veterinary medicine, the usefulness of assessing caudal vena cava (CVC) size using radiography and ultrasonography has been studied. An increased CVC diameter in dogs on thorax radiographs suggests right heart failure, and a decreased CVC diameter suggests decreased circulating blood volume [18, 24].
Establishment of reference values of the caudal vena cava by …
May 10, 2018 · To ultrasonographically obtain reference values (RV) for caudal vena cava diameter (CVC D), area (CVC a) and aortic ratios using 3 views in awake healthy dogs. One hundred and twenty-six healthy adult dogs from clients, students, faculty, or staff. Prospective, multicenter, observational study.
Utility of the Ultrasonographic Measurement of Caudal Vena Cava …
The ultrasonographic (US) measurement of caudal vena cava on aorta (CVC:Ao) ratio was successfully used to assess volume status in models of hypovolemia in dogs. The aim of this study was to determine the clinical utility of the CVC:Ao ratio to detect hypervolemic status in …
CT variants of the caudal vena cava in 121 small breed dogs
Computed tomography is increasingly used as a treatment planning method in canine patients with diseases of the retroperitoneum, however, published information on normal variations in the caudal vena cava (CVC) are currently lacking.
Radiographic evaluation of caudal vena cava size in dogs
Response operating characteristic curves and likelihood ratios were used to determine ratios helpful in identifying dogs with right heart disease. A CVC/Ao > 1.50, CVC/VL > 1.30, or CVC/R4 > 3.50 are strongly suggestive of a right-sided heart abnormality in a patient.
Ultrasonographic evaluation of the caudal vena cava in dogs with …
Apr 1, 2021 · In humans with impaired right-sided cardiac function, the caudal vena cava (CVC) diameter serves as a marker of venous congestion. This study aimed to investigate whether ultrasonographic CVC variables could identify the presence of right-sided congestive heart failure (R-CHF) in dogs with right-sided heart disease (RHD).
Caudal vena cava point-of-care ultrasound in dogs with …
Jun 1, 2022 · This study demonstrated that ACVIM stages of DMVD affected static (CVC D-max/Ao and CVC D-min/Ao) and dynamic (CVC CI) CVC variables in dogs without clinically important right heart disease. Subjective and objective CVC variables were associated with …
Ultrasonographic indices of the inferior vena cava are useful for predicting right heart filling pressures in people. To determine whether ultrasonographic indices of caudal vena cava (CVC) differ between dogs with right-sided CHF (R-CHF), left-sided CHF (L-CHF), and noncardiac causes of cavi-tary effusion (NC).
