The Role of Sonographic Examination of the Inferior Vena Cava in the Diagnosis of Pseudoclaudication in Patients with Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Journal Title: Біль. Суглоби. Хребет - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 23

Abstract

In 63 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis, it was defined the relationship of sonographic parameters of the inferior vena cava and pseudoclaudication. Evaluated fluctuating data of volumetric blood flow rate driven by provocation test in patients with pseudoclaudication showed the average value of the sensitivity of this method (0.64), but overdiagnosis rate reaches significant levels (0.71) that requires additional verification tests to confirm a causal relationships.
