AK funktionell ob. Regurg. der MK und TK, PAP normal, PK nicht eingesehen. VCI 16mm, *kaum av.*

neutral  Lirka: I agree about the meaning in German, but it is usually expressed as "inspiratory collapse" (or lack thereof) in English.

IVC diameter 16 mm with almost no inspiratory collapse


Explanation:
kaum av= hardly any/almost no inspiratory collapse

I agree with Susanne regarding the meaning in German, but in EN it is expressed as "collapse" rather than "varying". For example, dilated IVC with no collapse is seen in acute heart failure.
