Paradigm Shifts in Bedside Ultrasound – Transcript
In this installment, Elaine Situ-LaCasse, MD provides an overview of bedside ultrasound in the ED, both as a teaching and diagnostic tool. Dr. LaCasses presents three paradigm shifts for bedside ultrasound:
- Ultrasound training and education should be accessible to all medical professionals.
- We need better tools for teaching ultrasound
- There should be simplification and integration of complex concepts regarding cardiac ultrasound, so that all emergency physicians can perform bedside echocardiography on chest pains and syncope patients.
