Simple scan could help dialysis patients avoid dangerous fluid overload
NCT ID NCT05132036
Summary
This study tested whether a quick lung ultrasound scan could accurately detect dangerous fluid overload in people on dialysis. Doctors currently estimate fluid levels by physical exam, which can be imprecise. Researchers compared the scan results against other standard measurements in 46 stable dialysis patients to see if it was a reliable tool.
