Fluid response and vein health during fluid bolus in ICU
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial looks at how well your body responds to extra fluids given through an IV, and whether it helps your veins. It is for people in the ICU who already have heart monitoring in place.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are currently in the intensive care unit (ICU).
- You have a monitor that tracks your heart's pumping strength (cardiac output) using a pulse wave.
- Your doctor has decided to give you extra fluids through an IV (a fluid bolus).
- You are not pregnant, and you or your family agree to participate.

This study looks at how tiny blood vessels respond to extra fluids in ICU patients who have vein congestion. It helps doctors understand if giving more fluid is helpful or harmful for you.
This study tests whether measuring the size of a vein in your groin using ultrasound can help doctors decide if you need more fluids when you're critically ill in the ICU. The goal is to improve how doctors manage fluid treatment for patients on breathing machines.
This study watches how the right side of your heart responds when doctors give you extra fluids to improve blood flow during a critical illness. Understanding this response may help doctors make better decisions about fluid treatment in the ICU.
This study looks at how giving fluids through an IV (intravenous) affects blood flow and swelling in the veins of people who are in the heart intensive care unit. The goal is to see if different fluid amounts can help reduce problems with vein congestion, which can make heart conditions worse.
This study looks at how a standard IV fluid bolus affects blood flow and heart function in ICU patients. It aims to better understand the body's response to this common treatment.
This study looks at how giving fluids to critically ill patients in the ICU affects blood flow back to the heart. It helps doctors understand if giving fluids improves circulation.
