Interobserver reliability of sonographic measurement of inferior vena cava and aorta parameters in fasting children in the perioperative period: A prospective observational study

Interobserver reliability of sonographic measurement of inferior vena cava and aorta parameters in fasting children in the perioperative period: A prospective observational study

Background and Aims: Point-of-care ultrasound conducted by anesthesiologists plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of anesthesia. This study aims to evaluate the interobserver reliability of ultrasound measurements of the inferior vena cava (IVC) and aorta diameters in fasting pediatric patien...

ultrasonographic measurements
key message: 1. accurate pediatric great vessel diameter measurement is crucial for volume assessment; various approaches exist, yet no studies explore acquisition techniques for volume assessment
2. the study establishes the reliability of subxiphoid transabdominal long-axis view for assessing ivc and aorta diameters in pediatric patients, demonstrating its potential with brief training.
