Diagnostic Performance of Comprehensive Point‐of‐Care Ultrasound for Pediatric Tuberculosis in Spain: A Prospective Observational Study

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
In children with presumptive tuberculosis, comprehensive point‐of‐care (cPOCUS) identified key thoracic abnormalities with high specificity and excellent inter‐reader reliability. Although diagnostic sensitivity was modest and examinations often incomplete, cPOCUS shows promise as a complementary, radiation‐free imaging tool.

Deresuscitation Informed by Ultrasound in Patients with Septic Shock Trial

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Objectives The venous excess ultrasound (VExUS) can be used at the point‐of‐care to identify venous overload and end‐organ congestion in an effort to individually tailor resuscitation and deresuscitation in patients with septic shock. Methods We conducted a pilot randomized controlled feasibility trial of VExUS‐guided fluid management in adult patients
