IVCa = Inferior cava vein at admission. SPSa = simplified portal score at admission (pulsatility of >50%). SI-rSa = simplified intra-renal score at admission. VExUS 3a = VExUS 3 at admission. SI-rSd = simplified intra-renal score at discharge. SSSf = simplified hepatic score at follow-up. SI-rSf = simplified intra-renal score at follow-up. VExUS 3f = VExUS 3 at follow-up.
