Pitfalls
- Relying on POCUS as the main source of assessing patients. POCUS should be used as an adjunct to your clinical examination.
- A novice sonographer should be aware of their own limitations in interpreting scans
- Signs of RV dilatation and strain should be interpreted by caution in patients with chronic pulmonary hypertension.
Very good topic to review as an Ed doctor.
Excellent Review
