GOLDEN RULES OF E.D. ULTRASOUND

  • Have a low threshold to use bedside ultrasound to check for AAA in elderly patients presenting with abdominal pain.
  • Use of ultrasound in code blue situations can be useful in assessing for cardiac motion, cardiac tamponade, massive pulmonary embolism, etc.
  • Immediate bedside ultrasound can diagnose the hemoperitoneum from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy in seconds.
  • Bedside ultrasound can diagnose unsuspected urologic obstruction in patients who present with urosepsis, yet have no risk factors for UTI.
  • Verify abnormal findings with formal imaging, either by CT, formal ultrasound or other modalities.
