Cardiac arrest is an infrequent but high-stakes scenario in pediatrics. Manual central pulse checks are unreliable. Point-of-care ultrasound is a noninvasive technique to visualize the heart and central vessels during resuscitation. We describe 2 cases in which point-of-care ultrasound helped aid management decisions in pediatric cardiac arrest.
