POCUS in ICU | Medical Case Discussion

POCUS, or point-of-care ultrasound, is becoming increasingly popular in the ICU setting as a valuable tool for diagnosing and monitoring critically ill patients. POCUS allows for real-time imaging of various organs and systems, enabling clinicians to quickly identify and address potential complications such as fluid overload, pulmonary embolism, and cardiac dysfunction. It is a non-invasive, cost-effective alternative to more traditional imaging methods, and can be performed at the bedside, allowing for immediate and targeted interventions. As such, POCUS has the potential to improve patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs in the ICU.

Dr. Shefali Sharma, Head & Assistant Director, Department of Emergency Medicine & Trauma Center, Tender Palm Superspeciality Hospital talks about the A and B lines of the POCUS ultrasound done in the ER.
