Inferior Vena Cava Collapsibility Index Guide for Preoperative Fluid Therapy in Preeclampsia
Sponsor: Ain Shams University
Summary
The routine assessment of fluid status depends on clinical evaluation and invasive monitoring. The clinical assessment lacks objectivity and the invasive monitoring carries risks. Point of care ultrasound (POCUS) parameters can be useful as early markers of fluid status and were used in safe fluid assessment in term pregnancy and preeclampsia.

fluid therapy, 300 ml of crystalloid Ringer's solution.
300 ml by dripping within 30 minutes, the fluid will be repeated by half the amount if needed to reach equal or less than 50% collapsibility. the fluid that will be used is sterile Ringer's solution which is an isotonic intravenous solution with pH 5.0 - 7.5 and an osmolality of 308mOsmol/kg.
