This study aims to explore the feasibility and scientific validity of carotid-jugular Doppler in evaluating volume tolerance in shock patients (with the VExUS score as an important reference standard), and to conduct an in-depth analysis of the correlation between its monitoring indicators and patient prognosis.The primary endpoint is comparison of the agreement between hands-free carotid-jugular Doppler and the VExUS score in evaluating volume tolerance.The secondary endpoint is correlation between volume tolerance assessed by hands-free carotid-jugular Doppler and the clinical outcomes of shock patients.

Hands-free Carotid Artery and Vein Doppler Parameters
Elevate the patient's upper body to 45°, keep the legs flat, place the long axis of the probe perpendicular to the carotid vessels (with the probe height not exceeding the upper edge of the thyroid cartilage), locate the optimal signals of the common carotid artery and internal jugular vein waveforms, and then fix the probe.
Time frame: Time of shock in ICU within 3 days
PiCCO
Inject cold saline through central venous catheterization, sense temperature changes via arterial catheter, and obtain hemodynamic parameters such as cardiac output by combining thermodilution and pulse contour analysis.
Time frame: Time of shock in ICU within 3 days
Venous Excess Ultrasound Score
Evaluate the diameter, waveform, etc. of the inferior vena cava, hepatic veins, portal vein, and intrarenal veins sequentially via ultrasound, and comprehensively derive a grade ranging from 0 to 3.Grade 0: No congestion; Grade 1: Mild congestion; Grade 2: Moderate congestion; Grade 3: Severe congestion.
Time frame: Time of shock in ICU within 3 days
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis
Attach electrodes to the patient's limbs, input basic information, measure impedance of multiple parts with multi-frequency technology, and quickly obtain parameters such as body composition.
