Measurement of normal portal venous blood flow by Doppler ultrasound.

Abstract: The volume flow rate of blood in the portal vein was measured using a duplex ultrasound system. The many errors inherent in the duplex method were assessed with particular reference to the portal vein and appropriate correction factors were obtained by in vitro calibration. The effect of posture on flow was investigated by examining 45 healthy volunteers in three different positions; standing, supine and tilted head down at 20 degrees from the horizontal. The mean volume blood flow in the supine position was 8… Show more

“…The maintenance of constant temperature conditions was also provided (Henry & Gauer, 1950). The volume flow rate ( Q ) in the blood vessel was calculated by multiplying the cross-sectional area of the blood vessel ( A ) by the mean velocity ( v ) of the blood within it (Brown, Halliwell et al, 1989):…”

“…A ultra-sonografia com doppler -método simples, de fácil execução, não-invasivo e com ausência de efeitos deletérios ao paciente 10,11 -tornou-se exame complementar pré e pós-operatório importante nos pacientes submetidos à DAPE, com grande sensibilidade para o diagnóstico da trombose portal (TP) 9,12 . O presente estudo visa, através de análise retrospectiva dos pacientes com hipertensão portal esquistossomótica submetidos à desconexão ázigo-portal com esplenectomia, determinar se o índice de congestão portal obtido no pré-operatório teve relação com o desenvolvimento de trombose portal no pós-operatório recente.…”

“…Os parâmetros ultra-sonográficos analisados no pré-operatório foram: diâmetro da veia porta (DVP); área elíptica da veia porta (cm²) calculada pela fórmula 15 : AVP=(DVP)² x π / 4; velocidade do fluxo de sangue na veia porta (cm/s); fluxo de sangue na veia porta (ml/min), obtido conforme a fórmula: F = velocidade do fluxo x AVP x 60 10 , e finalmente o índice de congestão portal (cm/s) pela fórmula proposta por Moriyasu: ICP = AVP / velocidade do fluxo 16 . No pós-operatório, os doentes foram divididos em dois grupos conforme a ocorrência ou não de trombose portal: grupo A, composto de 28 doentes sem trombose da veia porta no pós-operatório, e grupo B, formado por 37 doentes com trombose no pós-operatório, diagnosticada através da ultra-sonografia com doppler.…”

“…It has been used previously in relation to SMA during feeding, and on other vascular beds in man (Gangar et al, 1991;Qamar et al, 1986b;Vyas et al, 1989). PBFwas measured using the same machine and a similar Doppler principle after visualisation of the portal vein on its long axis using an intercostal approach (Brown et al, 1989). The sample volume cursor was positioned at the centre of the lumen of the vein midway between the confluence of the splenic and superior mesenteric veins and the division of the portal vein into left and right hepatic branches.…”
