Collapsibility of the Right Internal Jugular Vein Predicts Responsiveness to Fluid Administration in Patients Receiving Pressure Support Ventilation: A Prospective Cohort Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of collapsibility of the internal jugular veins (IJVs) and subclavian veins (SCVs) in comparison with collapsibility of the inferior vena cava (IVC) in patients receiving pressure support ventilation. METHODS: Patients receiving pressure support ventilation were prospectively enrolled when fluid bolus administration was clinically indicated. The antero-posterior diameters of IJVs, SCVs and IVC were measured. Fluid responsiveness was defined as an 8% increase in stroke volume calculated with arterial pulse contour analysis after a passive leg raising maneuver. RESULTS: Twenty-seven patients (34 measurements) were included. Eighteen measurements were deemed fluid responsive. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of collapsibility of the right IJV antero-posterior diameter was 0.88 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.75 - 0.99), while the area under the ROC curves for the antero-posterior diameter of the left IJV, right SCV, left SCV and the IVC were 0.57 (95% CI: 0.37 - 0.77), 0.61 (95% CI: 0.41 - 0.80), 0.55 (95% CI: 0.35 - 0.76) and 0.57 (95% CI: 0.37 - 0.77), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that collapsibility of the right IJV is a useful predictor of fluid responsiveness in patients receiving pressure support ventilation. Collapsibility of the IVC did not predict fluid responsiveness in these patients.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
