Numerous studies have demonstrated the accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). Portable, handheld devices expanded clinical scope POCUS at a fraction cost traditional, cart-based models. There is paucity data assessing diagnostic portable devices. Our objective in this study was to compare device with model.
Anterior shoulder dislocations are the most common, large joint that present to emergency department (ED). Numerous studies support use of intraarticular local anesthetic injections for safe, effective, and time-saving reduction these dislocations. Simulation training is an alternative effective method compared bedside learning. There no commercially available ultrasound-compatible dislocation models. We utilized a three-dimensional (3D) printer print model allows visualization ultrasound...
In mid-March 2020, many North American emergency medicine (EM) physician educators found their campuses closed, educational programs canceled, and research projects furloughed as operations were directed to the clinical arena due novel coronavirus of 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Widespread need for personal protective equipment (PPE) viral testing led concerns over supply rationing. The value necessity ultrasound (CUS) education has not changed during pandemic arguably grown.1 COVID-19 patients...
It can be difficult to distinguish between syncope and seizure. Some stigmata of seizure include post-ictal period, tongue-biting or incontinence. A less common finding after a is posterior shoulder dislocation. Posterior dislocation commonly missed may the only seizure, thus aiding in diagnosis. In this case report, we discuss incidence dislocations their utility differentiating from as well ability diagnose evaluate for proper reduction using ultrasound.
Introduction Interprofessional collaboration (IPC) increases patient safety. IPC is learned through task-based exercises, such as ultrasound (U/S)-guided arterial lines. We set out to teach U/S-guided lines a framework improve between emergency medicine and neurosurgery residents. The objectives of the study were provide U/S session proper line placement technique, assess post-workshop competency attitude toward for procedural guidance, interdepartmental relationships IPC. Methods course was...
