We are interested (some say obsessed !?!) with bedside ultrasound use and teaching in shock, hence the EGLS course #FOAMed

Point of care ultrasound? #POCUS Should we all be trained in its use?
Short answer: Yes
Long answer: Yes 🙂 – at Whistler, British Columbia
🔐Point-of-care ultrasound use in emergencies: what every anaesthetist should know.
Heart, lungs and trauma. Should we all be trained in its use?

CoSTR.ILCOR does a detailed analysis (far from being complete) of evidences from trials on PoCUS in cardiac arrest, but there is no consideration about similar analysis of other diagnostic tools that should be used to diagnose causes of PEA. It is the absurd.
Echo Guided Life Support (EGLS) retweeted
What is rationale of stating “against” the routine use of PoCUS in cardiac arrest and then still recommending absent breath sound and jugular distention as routine use for tension ptx in PEA? It is prejudice, not science. costr.ilcor.org/document/dia…

The easy way to make the diagnosis is to use bedside ultrasound and see if there are B lines or not. If the lungs are clear, then you know it’s pulmonary embolism. If there are B lines, then you know it is heart failure.

No doubts. Thickness, brightness and even visibility of the pleural line depend on the angulation of the probe. A-lines follow, of course…But the B-lines do not always erase A-lines. Anyone who observes daily will agree.

Diagnostic accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in patients with dyspnea, non-traumatic hypotension, and shock is higher when compared to not using #POCUS in the initial workup. #CCUS #FOAMed #FOAMus #FOAMcc

Hi, ER Doc here.
I use this account to teach people about medical emergencies. It’s my birthday today and would love to hit 200K followers to be able to reach more people.
Can I get some follows and RTs to help me get there?
