We believe that a "Tri-POCUS" approach ( Fig. 1) combining LUS, focused cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS), and venous Doppler ultrasound can overcome the shortcomings of individual techniques and enhance the reliability by providing valuable insights into patients' hemodynamics when interpreted in the clinical context. Evaluation of blood flow pattern in the hepatic, portal, and intrarenal veins using bedside Doppler ultrasound to assess venous congestion is another attractive means to gauge fluid status in critically ill patients, though not specifically studied in those with ARDS.	./cache/cord-309238-7lbt0f03.txt	./txt/cord-309238-7lbt0f03.txt
