#POCUS quiz
You are performing physical examination in a patient with suspected fluid overload (plethoric IVC).
Parasternal short axis view demonstrates D-sign. But what's in the RV?

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?
