A. Constrictive pericarditis: expiratory ⬇️ in tricuspid flow & RV filling with associated flow reversals on HVD
B. Restrictive cardiomyopathy: prominent D reversals during inspiration
C. ⬆️RVEDP: prominent A-wave
D. RV systolic dysfunction: ⬇️ S-wave
#POCUS quiz for #VExUS enthusiasts.
Image obtained from a patient with heart failure with preserved EF. IVC 1.9 cm with 30% inspiratory collapse.
Here is the intra-renal image. Interpretation of the venous waveform?

S = systolic venous wave
D = diastolic venous wave

Pulsus paradoxus: during inspiration, right heart filling occurs at the expense of the left, so that its transmural pressure transiently improves & then reverts during expiration (Ventricular interdependence). Seen as 👆on #POCUS
