Ultrasound to detect lung congestion in dialysis patients may help save lives




Lung ultrasound can detect asymptomatic lung congestion in dialysis patients and can predict their risk of dying prematurely or experiencing heart attacks or other cardiac events. Treating asymptomatic lung congestion may help improve cardiovascular health and prevent cardiovascular deaths in dialysis patients. Lung congestion is highly prevalent and often asymptomatic among patients with kidney failure.
