DOI: 10.1186/s12887-025-06177-4
Abstract: Critically ill children are vulnerable to fluid overload due to complex fluid management. Early positive fluid balance may lead to systemic venous and pulmonary congestion, which can be challenging to detect clinically. Venous excess ultrasound… read more here.
