This prospective cohort study aim to investigate the ability of multiple types of assessments including 1) the modified Venous Excess Ultrasound (VExUS) assessment, 2) non-invasive estimation of absolute blood volume (ABV), and 3) change in carotid Doppler at the start of IKRT to predict IDHE in acutely ill hospitalized patients. The secondary aim will be to determine whether each modality improves the prediction of IHDE compared to the evaluation of the attending physician and whether they also predict cerebral hypoxia during IKRT measured by near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). Finally, detailed hemodynamic data including relative blood volume monitoring, tissue oximetry, and other parameters will be collected continuously during IKRT sessions enabling exploratory analyses aimed at identifying hemodynamic phenotypes related to IDHE during IKRT.
