Résumé de l'étude

In cases of advanced liver cirrhosis with large fluid accumulations in the abdomen and sudden deterioration of kidney function, an infusion of albumin (a body protein produced by the liver, also important for fluid balance) is administered for treatment. This aims to avoid serious complications and/or prevent an unstable circulatory situation. In our research project, we want to find out if it is possible to determine the fluid status in the body with a new device (CPMX2). To do this, the CPMX2 device measures the pressure of the superficial jugular vein. This should allow for early detection of the risk of fluid overload. We will also monitor this using an ultrasound examination. The device for measuring the pressure of the superficial jugular vein, CPMX2, has not yet received approval in Switzerland or a CE certification. The measurement with CPMX2 is comparable to an ultrasound examination.
