[3 min read]
Editor’s note: TSG has created a new on-line course with a spotlight on Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS). Emergency physicians and other specialties embracing this technology should be aware of important current issues related to POCUS. What follows is a summary and case example from the course.
POCUS: Evolving Standards of Care
Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is rapidly transforming clinical practice by bringing real-time diagnostic imaging to the bedside. Once considered a niche tool in emergency departments, it is now used across multiple specialties to improve diagnostic accuracy, guide procedures, and accelerate clinical decision-making. From central line placement to the evaluation of trauma and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), POCUS is helping clinicians make faster, safer, and more informed decisions that enhance patient outcomes.
