Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a tool often used by clinical providers in the care of critically ill or acutely injured patients. POCUS can be used to evaluate for potentially harmful conditions during transport and to optimize downstream management. Although available literature primarily focuses on adults in the prehospital, critical care, and austere environment realm, more literature supporting POCUS use during pediatric and neonatal transport has emerged over the last few years. What is currently available is often from diverse operators and a wide variety of applications. The goal of this article is to describe current pediatric and neonatal POCUS applications and to identify its barriers and limitations in the transport realm. .
床边超声(POCUS)是临床医生在危重症或急性损伤患者护理中常用的工具。POCUS 可用于评估转运过程中可能存在的有害情况,并优化下游管理。虽然现有文献主要集中在院前、重症监护和恶劣环境领域的成人,但近年来支持在儿科和新生儿转运中使用 POCUS 的文献越来越多。目前可用的文献通常来自不同的操作人员和各种应用。本文的目的是描述当前儿科和新生儿 POCUS 的应用,并确定其在转运领域的障碍和局限性。
