The dramatic technologic advancements seen in ultrasound have accelerated the growth of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in medicine. Neonatology has lagged behind other pediatric and adult specialties in incorporating POCUS into clinical practice despite there being numerous applications in cardiac and non-cardiac arenas. Widely available training programs are aiding in improving this situation but significantly more structure and orchestration for neonatal POCUS dissemination will be needed to fully actualize the potential for POCUS to augment its widespread clinical application.
超声领域显著的技术进步加速了床旁超声(POCUS)在医学中的发展。尽管POCUS在心脏和非心脏领域有众多应用,但新生儿科在将POCUS纳入临床实践方面落后于其他儿科和成人专科。广泛可用的培训项目有助于改善这种情况,但要充分实现POCUS广泛临床应用的潜力,还需要更多针对新生儿POCUS传播的结构安排和协调。
