ICU fluid check: can a simple ultrasound test predict who needs a ventilator?
NCT ID NCT06286306
First seen May 19, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at 50 ICU patients with acute respiratory failure to see if a heart ultrasound test (measuring how the main vein collapses when breathing in) could predict who would die or need a breathing machine. The goal was to understand if checking fluid responsiveness helps doctors avoid giving too much fluid, which can be harmful. No new treatment was tested; this was purely an observation to gather knowledge.
