To discuss pediatric intensivist-driven ultrasound and the exigent need for research and practice definitions pertaining to its implementation within pediatric critical care, specifically addressing issues in ultrasound-guided vascular access and intensivist-driven echocardiography.
Intensivist-driven ultrasound improves procedure safety and reduces time to diagnosis in clinical ultrasound applications, as demonstrated primarily in adult patients. Translating these applications to the PICU requires thoughtful integration of the technology into practice and would best be informed by dedicated ultrasound research in critically ill children.
探讨由儿科重症监护医生主导的超声检查，以及在儿科重症监护中实施该检查时对相关研究和实践定义的迫切需求，特别关注超声引导下血管通路和重症监护医生主导的超声心动图方面的问题。
如主要在成年患者中所证实的那样，由重症监护医生主导的超声检查可提高临床超声应用中的操作安全性并缩短诊断时间。将这些应用转化到儿科重症监护病房需要对该技术进行深思熟虑的实践整合，而专门针对危重症儿童的超声研究将为其提供最佳指导。
