Background:
Ultrasound-guided fluid evaluation, particularly the assessment of inferior vena cava (IVC) parameters, has gained attention in the management of pediatric shock patients. The IVC collapsibility index (IVCCI) is a non-invasive method for evaluating intravascular volume status in critically ill children.
Aim of the Study: this study aimed to evaluate the utility of the IVC collapsibility index as a non invasive tool for assessing intravascular volume status in pediatric patients with hypovolemic, septic, and cardiogenic shock. Additionally, the study explored its potential to differentiate between these types of shock.
