Volume Status

Part 1

    1. Evidence for Inferior vena cava (IVC) Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS)
    2. Estimating central venous pressure (CVP)
    3. Pitfalls to IVC assessment

Part 2

    1. Conceptualize volume status into 4 separate compartments
      • Central venous pressure (CVP)
      • Effective arterial volume (EAV)
      • Pulmonary edema
      • Leg edema
    2. Congestive heart failure (CHF)
      • Diagnosis
      • Novel management algorithm

    1. Evidence for jugular venous pressure (JVP) POCUS
    2. Measuring JVP
    3. Pitfalls to JVP Assessment

Part 4

    1. Recognize common inpatient volume status applications
      • Acute kidney injury (AKI)
      • Leg edema
      • Hyponatremia
      • Ascites
    2. Practice a novel POCUS diagnostic algorithm

Part 5

    1. Diagnosis of shock
      • Initial triage
    2. Management of shock
      • Fluid responsiveness
