Brief Summary
Fluid resuscitation is one of the cornerstones of treatment in ICU patients. Nonetheless, excessive fluid administration can lead to fluid overload which has been associated with worse outcomes in the ICU. To prevent this, assessments of fluid responsiveness are commonly employed. However, fluid responsiveness does not take fluid tolerance into account. Fluid tolerance is the idea that a patient might still be fluid responsive but might already be at risk of the detrimental effects of fluid therapy. Recent developments in point of care ultrasound e.g. the Venous excess ultrasound might help identify patients at risk of fluid overload. However its association with patient relevant outcomes in the ICU remains unclear.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Rate of acute kidney injury
Clinically relevant acute kidney injury in the ICU: a 200% rise in creatinine or the use of renal replacement therapy
within 30 days of admission to the ICU
Mortality
death of all causes
within 30 days of admission to the ICU
Rate of MAKE-30
a composite endpoint of mortality and acute kidney injury ( including renal replacement therapy)
within 30 days of admission to the ICU
Other Outcomes (2)
Lung ultrasound score
maximum of 3 times during the first 7 days of admission
Cardiac function as assed by ultrasound
maximum of 3 times during the first 7 days of admission
Eligibility Criteria
All cricitally ill patients who are expected to be admitted to the ICU for more than 24 hours and who do not meet the exclusion criteria
You may qualify if:
- all patients admitted to the ICU 18 years or older expected to stay in the ICU for more than 24 hours
You may not qualify if:
- any obstruction between the righ atrium and structures assessed by VExUS
- a medical history of: Major cardiac shunts (e.g. atrial septum defect), Tricuspid regurgitation, dialysis, portal hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, interstitial lung disease, recipients of a kidney of liver transplant.
- patients in whom an ultrasound assesment is unfeasible e.g. a BMI over 40
