Infective Endocarditis Diagnosed by Emergency Physicians Using Cardiac POCUS: A Case Series

Australasian Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 29, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Introduction Emergency physicians (EPs) are acquiring ever‐increasing expertise in cardiac point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS). We compiled this case series to demonstrate current practice by EPs diagnosing infective endocarditis (IE) using POCUS.

Point‐Of‐Care Ultrasound Pronator Quadratus Haematoma Sign Visualised in Adult Distal Radius Fractures: A Case Series

Australasian Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 29, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Subtle fractures of the distal forearm in adults are not always readily apparent on radiography. Point‐of‐care ultrasound (POCUS) offers a potentially valuable adjunct to conventional radiography in fracture diagnosis. The main advantage of POCUS over radiography is its ability to delineate soft tissue structures, which can provide ...

The FemTech revolution: Unlocking the potential of new technology for optimizing pregnancy outcomes in low‐ and middle‐income countries and remote areas

International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 174, Issue 2, Page 530-553, August 2026.
Abstract Maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity rates uncover major global health disparities. Despite ongoing efforts, the rates of maternal and neonatal complications remain substantially higher in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs) compared to high‐income countries (HICs). These high rates are the result of several unmet needs in LMICs,

An Integrated Prehospital Point‐of‐Care Lung Ultrasound Protocol for Patients With Dyspnea

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 8, Page 1773-1781, August 2026.
We present a time‐efficient, clinically integrated lung ultrasound protocol tailored for prehospital use by providers not yet routinely using ultrasound. Specifically designed to support the recognition of pneumothorax and interstitial syndrome, the protocol emphasizes operational feasibility, spectrum‐based diagnostic reasoning, and strict time ...

Deresuscitation Informed by Ultrasound in Patients With Septic Shock Trial

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, Volume 45, Issue 8, Page 1685-1693, August 2026.
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

Predictive Ability of Sonographic Characteristics Alone to Diagnose Tuberculous Pleural Effusions in a Resource‐Limited Setting: A Cross‐Sectional Pilot Study in Zambia

Tropical Medicine &International Health, Volume 31, Issue 8, Page 1128-1134, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Tuberculous pleural effusion (TPE), the second most common form of extra‐pulmonary tuberculosis (TB), remains difficult to diagnose due to low‐yield, invasive and often unavailable diagnostics in resource‐limited settings. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of sonographic characteristics alone to predict TB ...
