“…after blood donation, after fluid removal during dialysis, bleeding trauma patients), low filling pressures identified by IVC ultrasound reflect volume loss (20,21,22). But do we really need IVC ultrasound to guide our management in these cases?…”

“…The inferior vena cava (IVC) diameter is reportedly correlated moderately with central venous pressure (CVP) [1][2][3]. However, CVP does not always indicate the level of intravascular volume or fluid response [4], probably because CVP is a static variable.…”

“…In these conditions the reduced right output leads to caval hypertension. 77,78 The inferior vena cava (IVC) 79,80 is a large bore, extremely compliant, vessel (Appendix Figure 21); its size correlates with the patient's volume status (Appendix Table 6); the vessel contracts and expands with every respiratory cycle and the variations of the size give us a reliable estimation of the right atrial pressure and of PVC.…”

Sepsis is one of the leading causes of death in hospitalized patients and its management involves a lot of specialist. Internist is required to demonstrate his competence since the beginning when the diagnosis is not so easy to be clarified. A rapid clinical suspicion permits a prompt management of the patient that means important mortality reduction. However, it is essential to understand the source of infection and echography represents a rapid, economic, useful and widespread tool with whom Internist should become more and more confident. The following review is a practical guide to manage septic patients according to the most recent literature, underlining aspects of antibiotic therapy, hemodynamic stabilization and supportive therapy. To limit sepsis mortality, a valid Internist should be culturally prepared and especially able to cooperate with other specialists, because a strong enemy requires a strong team.
