Table 4 A comparison of renal venous stasis index and intravenous renal flow patterns between groups.
Renal Doppler parameters | Atrial fibrillation (n=34) | Sinus rhythm (n=34) | p value |
---|---|---|---|
Resistive Index | 0.60±0.07 | 0.58±0.07 | 0.240 |
Renal Venous Stasis Index | 0.20 (0.00–0.38) | 0.00 (0.00–0.10) | |
Continuous | 12 (35.3%) | 22 (64.7%) | |
Pulsatile | 12 (35.3%) | 11 (32.4%) | 0.798 |
Biphasic | 10 (29.4%) | 1 (2.9%) | |
Monophasic | 0 | 0 | |
