Changes in venous Doppler morphology with a wireless ultrasound patch

The RUHS code team has collaborated with flosonic with its revolutionary wearable ultrasound patch in gathering pertinent information to assist and aid in fluid management and sepsis resuscitation. Together with our nurse performed POCUS and the flopatch, these tools are life saving and performance changing for the whole critical care team.

RUHS code team assesses fluid responsiveness during the six hour sepsis resuscitation window using the corrected flow time and functional hemodynamics metrics with the wearable doppler patch by means of passive leg raise and or fluid challenge.

highlighted changes in venous Doppler morphology as you increase preload to the heart. The venous morphology changes from continuous – pulsatile – s>d – s<d – d as the right atrial pressure increases (similar to the Doppler morphology changes seen in the hepatic vein).
