All recruiting trials (7)
-
Right ventricular–arterial coupling during fluid loading in ICU patients
This study tests how the right ventricle handles fluid changes in critically ill adults to see how it affects blood flow and congestion.
-
How giving fluids changes tiny blood flow in critically ill patients with venous congestion.
This project will see if giving a fluid bolus makes tiny blood flow worse in ICU patients who have venous congestion compared with similar patients without congestion.
-
See if VExUS ultrasound can guide fluid decisions in ICU patients with venous congestion
We’re testing whether a bedside ultrasound score (VExUS) helps doctors in the ICU decide how much IV fluid to give to adults with venous congestion.
-
Venous congestion and delirium after heart surgery
This project will see if venous congestion during and after elective heart surgery is linked to a higher risk of postoperative delirium in adults who can complete cognitive testing.
-
Venous congestion and microcirculation after elective cardiac surgery
This project will try to see if bedside ultrasound signs of venous congestion (VEXUS score and femoral vein Doppler) are linked with microcirculatory problems in adults during their ICU stay after elective or urgent cardiac surgery.
-
Investigating fluid responsiveness and venous congestion in critically ill patients during volume expansion
This study is testing how well critically ill patients respond to extra fluids and if they have too much fluid in their veins during treatment in the ICU.
-
Guided fluid removal using VeXUS score for patients with acute kidney injury after heart surgery
This study is testing if using the VeXUS score to manage fluid levels can help patients with acute kidney injury after heart surgery recover better than standard care.

How many Venous Congestion clinical trials are recruiting right now?
7, as of November 12, 2026. We update this list each time we refresh our data from ClinicalTrials.gov.
Where are these trials running?
In 4 countries. The most sites are in France (4 trials), China (2 trials), Switzerland (1 trial), Italy (1 trial). Each study page lists its sites and which ones are recruiting.
How do I join one?
Open a study, check the "Is this trial a fit for you?" section, then contact the study team listed on the page. They will ask a few screening questions. Asking is free and does not commit you to anything. Talk it over with your doctor first.
