The Superior Vena cava Respiratory Collapse Index (cVCS) is a haemodynamic parameter measured exclusively by transoesophageal ultrasound (TEE), which is used to assess cardiac precharge-dependence status. This may be an important prognostic factor in ARDS because it is a sign of hypervolemia and right heart failure.
