Interventions
Serial VEXUS Ultrasound Evaluation
Ultrasound assessments will be performed by an experienced anesthesiologist at three time points (0-4 hours, 12-24 hours, and 72 hours)to determine the degree of venous congestion using the VEXUS Score. No treatment changes will be made based on the VEXUS findings. The scores will solely be used for prognostic correlation with mortality outcomes.
