[Application of abdominal venous Doppler flow pattern in volume management].

Accurate assessment of hemodynamic status is crucial for volume management. Venous congestion caused by volume overload can cause organ damage and poor prognosis. Traditional critical ultrasound, including inferior vena cava ultrasound, echocardiography, and lung ultrasound, is widely used in volume management. However, it is unable to evaluate the organ blood flow. The blood flow pattern of abdominal vein changes dynamically with venous congestion, which is an index for evaluating the blood flow of hepatic vein, portal vein and internal renal vein by Doppler ultrasound. This article reviews the acquisition and grading standards of abdominal venous blood flow patterns, their application and limitations in volume management, with a view to providing help for early clinical identification of terminal organ congestion, implementation of fluid negative balance intervention and individualized volume management.
