Department of Radiology performed ultrasound for patients suspected of having intussusception in resource-limited settings might be either unavailable or significantly time delayed.
Our objective was to present a case of intussusception successfully diagnosed by point-of-care ultrasound and to review the sonographic appearance and diagnostic criteria for intussusception.
An emergency physician utilized point-of-care ultrasound to diagnose intussusception in a young patient in Haiti.
In resource-limited settings, point-of-care ultrasound performed by a physician trained to diagnose intussusception can reduce the time to definitive management and thereby potentially reduce complications such as bowel ischemia and necrosis, dehydration, and sepsis.
在资源有限的环境中,放射科为疑似肠套叠的患者进行超声检查可能无法进行或会显著延迟。
我们的目的是介绍一例通过床旁超声成功诊断肠套叠的病例,并回顾肠套叠的超声表现及诊断标准。
一名急诊医生在海地利用床旁超声诊断了一名年轻患者的肠套叠。
在资源有限的环境中,由接受过肠套叠诊断培训的医生进行床旁超声检查可以缩短明确治疗的时间,从而有可能减少诸如肠缺血和坏死、脱水及败血症等并发症。
