An intuitive way to use ultrasound to evaluate sick patients along the peri-shock to full shock spectrum, based on clinical presentation. I call it, “Think High or Think Low.” I made these cards for the new UCLA EM interns to wear with their ID badges. @UCLAEMRes #POCUS

🧵regarding the introducer sheath commonly known as a 'Cordis' catheter.
We'll go over what it was originally designed for and why it ended up being adopted by other specialties for entirely different reasons.
Also we'll look at its accessories and see what's inside one.

We just published this in The Journal of the American College of Cardiology -- Advances (JACC Advances) "State of the Art Review". It is a REALLY interesting read, using quotes from Thomas Kuhn's book "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions" (the book that coined the word "paradigm" and "paradigm shift"). Here is the first quote: “Scientific revolutions are inaugurated by a growing sense, again often restricted to a narrow subdivision of the scientific community, that an existing paradigm has ceased to function adequately in the exploration of an aspect of nature to which that paradigm itself had previously led the way.” —Thomas Kuhn
