From: The effect of norepinephrine on common carotid artery blood flow in septic shock patients

Scatter plot of carotid POCUS and TTE before (T0) and after (T1) restoration of a MAP ≥ 65 mmHg with norepinephrine in the whole population (n = 24) : A1 (CCA PSV), A2 (CCA diameter), A3 (CCA blood flow), B1 (LVOT VTI), B2 (LVOT diameter), B3 (CO). POCUS, point-of-care ultrasound; TTE, transthoracic echocardiography; MAP, mean arterial pressure; CCA, common carotid artery; PSV, peak systolic velocity; LVOT, left ventricular outflow tract; VTI, velocity time integral; CO, cardiac output The lines in each graph represent the same unit values on the X (T0) and Y (T1) axes.
