Abstract Background Fluid overload is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in critically ill patients. An accurate assessment of fluid status in neonatal cardiac pediatric patients is required for assessment of fluid overload. Estimation of fluid status using different Doppler parameters may be helpful in determination of fluid status. Purpose To evaluate difference in fluid status in neonates with and without congenital heart diseases. To detect sensitivity of Doppler Ultrasound in early determination of fluid status. To compare between different parameters (IVC diameter, IVCCI, and IVC/AO ratio) between cardiac and healthy neonates. Methods Transabdominal Doppler parameters of 25 full-term newborns with congenital heart diseases and congestive heart failure were compared to 25 post-natal age and sex-matched normal healthy neonates serving as controls. Aortic as well as inspiratory and expiratory inferior vena cava diameters were measured. Subsequently, inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVCCI) and inferior vena cava-to-aortic ratio (IVC/AO) were calculated. Results Fluid overload detected by increased IVC diameter (decreased IVCCI and increased IVC/AO ratio) was observed in the cardiac compared to the control group. There was positive correlation between the fluid volume and the IVC diameter and IVC/AO ratio and negative correlation with the IVC collapsibility indices. Conclusions Fluid overload with increased IVC diameter and lack of IVC collapsibility were observed in neonates with congenital heart diseases and congestive heart failure compared with those hemodynamically stable controls. We recommend the use of IVC diameter, IVCCI, and IVC/AO ratio as rapid, easy and sensitive parameters in assessing volume status. |
