Summary

This study looked at whether measuring the inferior vena cava through the liver (transhepatic approach) can predict if a patient needs more fluids after heart surgery. 40 ICU patients were included. The goal was to avoid giving too much fluid, which can be harmful. The study compared this new method with the standard one to see if it works just as well.
