Impact of an ultrasound-driven diagnostic protocol at early intensive-care stay: a randomized-controlled trial
Tập 11 Số 1 - 2019
Abstract Background Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a tool in increasing
use, but there is still a lack of basics for its routine use and evidence of its
impact in intensive care. Objective To measure the impact of POCUS on resource
utilization, diagnostic accuracy, and clinical management in medical-surgical
intensive care units (ICUs). Methods Prospective, controlled study, in two
polyvalent...

Point-of-care lung ultrasound imaging in pediatric COVID-19
Tập 12 Số 1 - 2020
Abstract Background There has been limited data regarding the usefulness of lung
ultrasound (US) in children with COVID-19. Objective To describe lung US imaging
findings and aeration score of 34 children with COVID-19. Methods This study
included 0–16-year-old patients with confirmed COVID-19, who were admitted
between April 19 and June 18, 2020 in two hospitals in the city of Sao Paulo,
Brazil. ...
Evaluation of a novel handheld point-of-care ultrasound device in an African emergency department
Tập 12 Số 1 - 2020
Abstract Background Many point-of-care ultrasound devices are now “pocket-sized”
or handheld, allowing easy transport during travel and facilitating use in
crowded spaces or in austere low-resource settings. Concerns remain about their
durability, image quality, and clinical utility in those environments. Method
Five emergency physicians with training in point-of-care ultrasound employed the
Butte...
Billing I-AIM: a novel framework for ultrasound billing
Tập 12 Số 1 - 2020
Abstract Background Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has an ever-growing
footprint in medicine. With this growth POCUS billing and reimbursement has
become an area gaining quite a bit of attention as a means of funding and
sustaining quality and education programs. Standardization across providers is
needed to improve the financial viability of POCUS. Results We created an
institutional collaborat...
Scoping review of implementing a longitudinal curriculum in undergraduate medical education: The wake forest experience
Tập 13 Số 1 - 2021
Abstract Background Hands-on ultrasound experience has become a desirable
component for undergraduate medical education (UGME) curricula throughout
medical schools in the United States (US) to enhance readiness for future
training. Ultrasound integration can be a useful assistive educational method in
undergraduate medical education to improve anatomy and physiology skills.
Relatively few medical ...
Patients in intensive care unit for COVID-19 pneumonia: the lung ultrasound patterns at admission and discharge. An observational pilot study
Tập 13 Số 1 - 2021
Abstract Background During COVID-19 pandemic, optimization of the diagnostic
resources is essential. Lung Ultrasound (LUS) is a rapid, easy-to-perform, low
cost tool which allows bedside investigation of patients with COVID-19
pneumonia. We aimed to investigate the typical ultrasound patterns of COVID-19
pneumonia and their evolution at different stages of the disease. Methods We
performed LUS in ...
Feasibility of cardiac output measurements in critically ill patients by medical students
- 2020
Abstract Background Critical care ultrasonography (CCUS) is increasingly applied
also in the intensive care unit (ICU) and performed by non-experts, including
even medical students. There is limited data on the training efforts necessary
for novices to attain images of sufficient quality. There is no data on medical
students performing CCUS for the measurement of cardiac output (CO), a
hemodynamic...
Renal resistive index: a new reversible tool for the early diagnosis and evaluation of organ perfusion in critically ill patients: a case report
Tập 11 Số 1 - 2019
Abstract Background We reported a case of early detection of peripheral
hypoperfusion trough the evaluation of a new index in intensive care: Renal
Doppler Resistive Index (RRI). Case presentation We admitted a 76-year-old man
who underwent ileostomy and hernioplasty because of an intestinal occlusion due
to obstructive strangulated right inguinal hernia. The post-operative period was
characterise...
The reproducibility of measuring maximum abdominal aortic aneurysm diameter from ultrasound images
Tập 13 Số 1 - 2021
Abstract Background Accurate repeat assessment of the diameter of an abdominal
aortic aneurysm (AAA) is important. This study investigated the reproducibility
of different methods of measuring AAA diameter from ultrasound images. Methods
Fifty AAA patients were assessed by ultrasound. Maximum AAA diameter was
measured independently by three trained observers on two separate occasions
using a stand...
