Bedside Ultrasound Assessment of Jugular Venous Compliance as a Potential Point‐of‐Care Method to Predict Acute Decompensated Heart Failure 30‐Day Readmission

Bedside Ultrasound Assessment of Jugular Venous Compliance as a Potential Point‐of‐Care Method to Predict Acute Decompensated Heart Failure 30‐Day Readmission

Background Heart failure is one of the most costly diagnosis‐related groups, largely because of hospital readmissions. Objective assessment of volume status to ensure optimization before hospital discharge could significantly reduce readmissions. We previously demonstrated an ultrasound method of qu...
