Lung Ultrasound Versus Cardiometry in Detection of Extravascular Lung Water in Pediatric Patients on Hemodialysis.

Completed
Conditions
Fluid Volume Excess
Interventions
Device: lung ultrasound and electrical cardiometry
Registration Number
NCT05943717
Lead Sponsor
Tanta University
Brief Summary

Comparing the efficacy of both lung ultrasound and electrical cardiometry to detect the extravascular lung water and volume status in pediatric patients on regular hemodialysis and use them as non-invasive methods for early detection of hypervolemia or euvolemia even before appearance of clinical symptoms to decrease morbidity and mortality

Detailed Description

This cross sectional study will be conducted to compare between the efficacy of both lung ultrasound and electrical cardiometry to detect the extravascular lung water and volume status in pediatric patients on regular hemodialysis and use them as a non-invasive method for early detection of hypervolemia or euvolemia even before appearance of clinical symptoms of both conditions.
