Recent applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and deep learning (DL) in health care include enhanced diagnostic imaging modalities to support clinical decisions improve patients' outcomes. Focused on using automated DL-based systems point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), we look at automation as a key field expanding improving POCUS various settings. A promising additional value would be the ability automate training model selections for teaching medical trainees novice sonologists. The...
Abstract Objectives Difficult intravenous access (DIVA) is common in the emergency department (ED). We investigated extent to which DIVA associated with care delay outcomes including time first laboratory draw, therapies, imaging, and ED disposition. Methods An observational retrospective cohort analysis of patients treated between 2018 2020 at 2 urban academic EDs was performed. defined as requiring ultrasound‐guided placed by physicians or advanced practice providers (APPs) opposed...
Abstract Competency in the application of point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) has come to be an expected fundamental skill set for advanced practice providers (APPs) emergency department. Both American College Emergency Physicians and Society Medicine Physician Assistants approve endorse POCUS use by APPs. However, clinical exposure this setting is often variable without structure. training must evolved into a system where developed skills are compatible with need expectations At our...
Point-of-care ultrasound (US) has been suggested as the primary imaging in evaluating patients with suspected diverticulitis. Discrimination between simple and complicated diverticulitis may help to expedite emergent surgical consults determine risk of complications. This study aimed to: (1) accuracy an US protocol (TICS) for diagnosing emergency department (ED) setting (2) assess ability TICS distinguish diverticulitis.Patients clinically who underwent a diagnostic computed tomography (CT)...
This paper presents ongoing language understanding experiments conducted as part of a larger effort to create nutrition dialogue system that automatically extracts food concepts from user's spoken meal description. We first discuss the technical approaches understanding, including three methods for incorporating word vector features into conditional random field (CRF) models semantic tagging, well classifiers directly associating foods with properties. report on both text and data an...
The novel COVID-19 pandemic will alter the educational experience for medical students, residents, and fellows worldwide. It has already led to significant changes within most hospitals, including cancellation of elective procedures, clinical rotations, lectures, conferences. This is no different in emergency medicine (EM) residencies fellowships. As demand hospital resources increased, residents have had surrender activities conferences prioritize duties prompting creative solutions...
The efficacy of extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass in preventing ischemic stroke progression and recurrence is controversial. As per the current hypothesis, EC-IC most beneficial for patients with persistent hemodynamic insufficiency. Hence, various approaches have been used to evaluate insufficiency, including repeated single photon emission CT (SPECT) imaging or continuous monitoring cerebral flow transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD). However, both modalities are time-...
Abstract Background Point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) competence consists of image acquisition, interpretation, and clinical integration. Limited data exist on POCUS usage patterns integration by emergency medicine (EM) residents. We sought to determine actual EM residents explore residents' perspectives Methods conducted an explanatory sequential mixed‐methods study at a 4‐year residency program. In phase 1, (US) attendings observed PGY‐4 in real time while shift the department (ED). US...
The objective of this study was to analyze patterns point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) performance over 4 years emergency medicine (EM) residency. Specifically, we aimed how accuracy and adherence standards scanning changed by postgraduate year (PGY).

We will demonstrate several small mobile robots, including an iRobot Landroid Sphero BB-8.
Background and objectives Patients infected with influenza COVID-19 exhibit similar clinical presentations; thus, a point-of-care test to differentiate between the diseases is needed. Here, we sought identify features of lung ultrasound (LUS) that can discriminate COVID-19. Methods In this prospective, cross-sectional study, LUS clips patients presenting emergency department (ED) viral-like symptoms were collected via 10-zone scanning protocol. Deidentified interpreted by fellows blinded...
We sought to assess whether ultrasound (US) measurements of carotid flow time (CFTc) and blood (CBF) predict fluid responsiveness in patients with suspected sepsis.This was a prospective observational study hypotensive (systolic pressure < 90) "at risk" for sepsis receiving intravenous fluids (IVF) the emergency department. US CFTc CBF were performed at zero upon completion IVF. All repeated after passive leg raise (PLR) maneuver. Fluid defined as normalization without persistent hypotension...
