Contemporary Use of Ultrasonography in Acute Care Pediatrics
Indian journal of pediatrics(2023)
Abstract
Use of ultrasonography by clinicians at the point of care has expanded widely and rapidly. Pediatric acute care providers now leverage this valuable tool to guide procedures, diagnose pathophysiologic processes, and inform time-sensitive decisions in sick and unstable children. However, the deployment of any new technology must be packaged with training, protocols, and safeguards to optimize safety for patients, providers, and institutions. As ultrasonography is increasingly incorporated into residency, fellowship, and even medical student curricula, it is important that educators and trainees are aware of the diversity of its clinical applications. This article aims to review the current state of point-of-care ultrasonography in acute care pediatrics, with an emphasis on the literature supporting the use of this important clinical tool.
