One of the best examples I’ve seen of Kussmaul’s sign: inspiratory increase in JVP.

Why does this happen?

My first #tweetorial 🧵, a la @AvrahamCooperMD @tony_breu @AndreMansoor

1/ 2/ Normally, with inspiration, the negative intrathoracic pressure is transmitted to the heart chambers (❤️ is in the thorax, after all), which makes JVP decrease. Here is an example of normal: neck veins collapsing with inspiration, then filling again with expiration.

1/ 2/ Pre-clinical med students—Immerse yourself in what you’re learning. Remember that you’re building a foundation to be a great doctor, not just preparing for exams.
