Examination of the Neck Veins with Audio

[thinkingman07]

Thanks for this video. It is nice to see. The physical examination is very important, though many physicians do not do it any more. I suppose physicians are relying more upon radio graphs and technology to do the diagnosing for them. One wonders how they would examine patients out in the mission field.

We are using this video to teach JVD measurement for all our Cardiac nurses at Gagnon (Overlook Hospital, Summit NJ)

This is a great tool for teaching.

Thank you

Great Video! I'm an M1 and this was definitely helpful!

one thing that you need to be cautious while making the estimate of the jvp is to get the ruler as orthogonal to the horizontal ground as possible, then shining a light from the top of the jugular pulsation toward the ruler again trying to make the light as orthogonal to the ruler as possible, only this way would the height of the venous column be close to being accurately projected onto the measuring device.

Great video... this is emphasized in our physical diagnosis class but we never see anyone do it.

Thank you very much. I made this video because the art of neck vein evaluation is being lost. Thank you for keeping it alive!
