This video (part 1 of 2) details how performing the right upper quadrant (RUQ) ultrasound examination on trauma patients enables clinicians to potentially identify internal injuries.
This video details the use of bedside ultrasound imaging, specifically the parasternal short-axis view, with a phased array probe to evaluate cardiac health and anatomy, especially when looking at a patient's left ventricular contractility.
Using the apical view and a phased array probe during bedside ultrasound examinations can enable clinicians to evaluate cardiac health, structures, & ventricular contractility. This view is ideal for identifying cardiomyopathy, pericardial effusion, and cardiac tamponade.
The video demonstrates how to use long and short axis configurations, as well as M-mode, to detect and diagnose both a complete and partial pneumothorax.
