1) More #POCUS training desired in those previously trained (🤔benefits of POCUS realized once you start using it?) 2) Lack of training = top barrier to #POCUS use 3) Majority groups have ≥1 rheumatologist already using POCUS. #OpenAccess link.springer.com/article/10.100…

Congratulations to Dr. @nilamjsoni and Dr. @nathansonr3 on their latest paper published in Chest Critical Care: “Current Use, Training, and Barriers to Point-of-Care Ultrasound Use in ICUs in the Department of Veterans Affairs” chestcc.org/article/S2949-…
After 10 yrs, @uthsaim chief resident-led medical procedure service had same success and complication rates as attending-led services published in the lit. #POCUS #IMPOCUS @nathansonr3 @nilamjsoni @jeororke link.springer.com/article/10.100…

How can #anesthesia residencies provide #POCUS training when lack of trained faculty is still a top barrier? More on “Current Use, Training, and Barriers of POCUS use in Anesthesiology” authors.elsevier.com/c/1g~dD_NyRSC0…

At times it can be really hard to diagnose congestive hepatopathy in patients. #POCUS may help and circumvent a liver biopsy. Congrats to Dr. Dollar and Dr. Nathanson! @SanAntonioVAMC @UTHealthHospMed @ankursegon #SHMConverge23
👀 Check out the results of the largest hospital medicine survey on the use of POCUS and its applications at VA hospitals ✴️ 64% use POCUS ✴️ 79% have dedicated ultrasounds 🚩 Lack of training is the biggest barrier …mpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jh…
Diagnostic #POCUS use increased while procedural use decreased among #hospitalists from 2015 to 2020. Lack of training still #1 barrier. Improved access to devices (45% handhelds) in 2020. …mpublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10… @geek_md @WetherbeePulmCC @nathansonr3 @nuMosemed @cm_lopresti
Comparison of 4 handheld #POCUS devices by 24 experts on same 4 human models. Image quality unanimously voted most important variable. No perfect device. Lumify™ rated highest for image quality; Vscan Air™ rated highest for ease of use. Full PDF here: theultrasoundjournal.springeropen.com/track/pdf/10.1…
Developing #POCUS track for #IMresidents can help bridge training gap in #IMPOCUS by creating #POCUS champions who can teach med studs, residents, & even faculty. Consider incorporating POCUS certificate by @SocietyHospMed / @accpchest to get started ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
Our congratulations to Drs. @nilamjsoni, @nathansonr3, @erin_finley & @Jacquel59129937 collaborate on publishing a POCUS skills assessment checklist for image acquisition & anatomy identification for basic cardiac, lung, abdominal and vascular ultrasound: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35551527/
Division dinner at #SHMconverge in Nashville-wonderful evening with a group of awesome Hospitalists @UTHealthHospMed @SocietyHospMed
The enthusiasm and expertise, especially ultrasound guided lumbar puncture from @nathansonr3 are impressive. I wish I have a picture of him teaching LP. Will definitely get the picture next time. He will be my go-to person for LP!!
