Scientists map how your vein moves when you breathe
NCT ID NCT01644760
Summary
This study aimed to understand how normal breathing changes the size of a large vein in the belly, called the inferior vena cava. Researchers used ultrasound scans on 52 healthy volunteers to measure the vein's movement and the diaphragm muscle's motion. The goal was to gather basic information about how these two things are related in people without health problems.
