In this study, internal medicine residents in New York took part in a novel POCUS curriculum focused on renal ultrasound. The POCUS training involved online lectures and hands-on skill sessions which were integrated into the residents' existing 2-week nephrology rotation.

A new prospective study analyzed the association between pleural effusions detected by chest point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) and progression of clinical outcomes in patients with septic shock. 🎯Why does this matter? Early detection with POCUS can help guide interventions and

Can ultrasound measure how your pupils respond to light — without opening your eyes? Emerging evidence says yes. In this study, emergency physicians used B-mode point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) to measure pupillary diameter and light reflex through closed eyelids. This quick,

Really pleased to share this piece I wrote for POCUS Journal about the expanding role of #POCUS 🩻 POCUS is no longer confined to single-system scans and binary questions ❌ We can embrace the value and nuance of multi-organ POCUS to help us answer complex questions 🧐 Have a

Congratulations to Adriano Sanjuan, MD from Indiana University Internal Medicine for this this excellent case published in the POCUS Journal ! A great example of how advanced cardiac POCUS can change the diagnostic trajectory in complex cases. The clip features 4 cases of endocarditis—Apical 5 view is the one

Congratulations to Dr. Amy Fraser and the POCUS_CERC team on the introduction of the DIVOT protocol in the latest POCUS Journal! This innovative approach uses Doppler to visualize and avoid intercostal arteries prior to thoracentesis—advancing procedural safety. IU Pulmonary and Critical Care Fellowship

(1/x) Those of us who love #pocus often use it to rule out pneumothorax. But how reliable is this approach? So-so. We found only moderate interrater reliability to detect lung sliding among clinicians.

So proud of reaching the 10th anniversary mark with this innovative collaboration. Thank you to the entire global #POCUS community for contributing!

First-year medical students took part in a peer-led cardiac ultrasound session during their cardiovascular physiology course.   After the session: ✅ Knowledge scores rose from 55% → 71% ✅ Final exam performance improved across all levels ✅ Confidence in anatomy, physiology,

A new quality improvement study shows how simple archiving interventions can dramatically augment ultrasound scan tracking and feedback for PGY-1 internal medicine residents. ❎ Before: 0% of diagnostic scans saved by residents ✅ After: Major increase in archived scans and

🫀 Do you see anything wrong with this heart? In this case, a temporary pacemaker lead caused a rare complication: interventricular septal perforation. The lead accidentally pierced through the wall between the ventricles, ending up in the left ventricle, which increases the

❓Is there a way to know if your chest compressions are actually hitting the marks during CPR? 📌Answer: Yes, with real-time imaging! #POCUS 🫀A recent case study underscores how point of care transesophageal echocardiography plays a critical role in cardiac arrest management,

🎙️ New POCUS Journal Podcast Episode! "Demonstrating Feasibility of Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS)-Guided Inpatient Transthoracic Echo (TTE) Triage Decision Pathway" We explore how POCUS can streamline inpatient echo triage and clinical decision-making. 📺 YouTube:

A patient with a Staph aureus bloodstream infection and persistent fevers had multiple negative transthoracic (TTE) and transesophageal (TEE) echocardiograms—but suspicion for endocarditis remained high.   🔍 With daily advanced cardiac point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS),
