    Thanks, this is awesome because I had this done before but never did get to see the charts or the results, only what my urologist told me…. It was a fluid build up and it went away thank goodness. I was having a slight pain in one and didn’t know why.

    Correction at 30:36 - The sensitivity and specificity of McConnell's sign is inverted. It should be 19% sens and 100% spec.

    I have had My-Thurners for quite a few years. The clot is in my abdomen.. I have extreme discoloration with the skin on my ankles to above my knees. They turn dark gray or black when my Legs are not elevated. I have three large circular wounds on my abdominal skin that can last for a year after treatment and they still return again and again. A lot of pain in my lower back from the clot. I went to a specialist in Boston he was just rude and dismissive to me after waiting 3 months for a appointment. His only comment was “I can put in a stent if you want, but I don’t recommend it”.

    Our protocol requires patients to be intubated. So, they are already sedated for the intubation.

    Caliper placed over the fetal heart. The number of cycles depends on the machine. Our machines are programmed to an every other beat cycle.

    Great lecture! However, at 30:40 the sensitivity and specificity of McConnell Sign should be changed positions. Am J Cardiol. 2002 Sep 1;90(5):507-11. "Sensitivity and specificity were 81% and 45% for "RV-pressure overload" signs, 25% and 94% for 60/60 sign, and 19% and 100% for McConnell sign."

    1) How do we know on a machine we've never used that u measure 1 or 2 cycles on M Mode? 2) at what week does CRL become phased out? I believe at week 12 from what I recall on most machines I've used. (General/vascular tech here that's done only vascular for the last 5 yrs)

  • @MetroHealthEmergencyUltrasound

    Sometimes it tells you in the calculator. Otherwise you measure between peaks and see what number you get and see if it makes sense. If you measure every beat on a machine that does every beat, your rate will be 2x. Same and opposite if you measure every 2 beats on a machine that measures every beat.

    Two yrs ago. I was standing on the back deck .A board broke ,I had no time to react .Fast forward I had a follow up with the orthopedic to see if I was going to be released for work .My job is very physical .The P.A walks in and says .I don't see why you wouldn't be able to return to work .I had a fluid pocket on my thigh .She never looked , dismissed my concerns and they don't treat hematomas . The very next night ,my leg had busted open .I didn't even realize it was ruptured until my flipflop was wet ..Long story !! Saturday Eve it ruptured Tues afternoon I was in the ER very sick !! Worst pain ever .Spent 19 days in the hospital .gases trapped , debridement twice !! And I have a non healed wound . Devastating injury .Lots of times patients are misdiagnose.just a disheartening injury

    It can depending on the injury. It will often appear as a disruption of the normal fibular architecture of the muscle. Often combined with change in echogenicity, thickening and fluid.

    I think given the findings of prophy-vap trial, ed physician can quickly scan the acute brain insult patient who had an rsi and if there is full stomach, confidently give emperical antibiotics to prevent downstream VAP. What are your thoughts?

  • @MetroHealthEmergencyUltrasound
    @MetroHealthEmergencyUltrasound4 ай бұрын

    Great question, but probably a highly nuanced answer. The prophy-vap study is an interesting idea but a reasonably small study. While there may be some signal here, we probably need more studies for it to be accepted as mainstream. As for gastric POCUS first to determine if we should give antibiotics - if the prophy-vap outcomes hold up, further studying which patients benefit most (+/- POCUS) would be an interesting area of study.

    This is the best video I have seen so far. The way he explained the fibrous encapsulation helped me a lot. I was hit by a car 14 years ago. I developed a large morel lesion. After the original event I had to have fluid removed. Years later there is no longer fluid, but the large mass is still there. The ultrasound suggested fluid accumulation, but nothing came back during aspiration. The doctor told me there was nothing they could do because there was no fliud to remove. They didnt explain why the mass is still there. Thanks for the video.

    Excellent discussion and teaching. Congratulations. My questions: Can we do angle correction in pulsed doppler to assess mitral E velocity?. I notice that the LV imflow is sometimes at an angle and such correction will give the true E velocity

  • @MetroHealthEmergencyUltrasound

    Great question. It would be machine dependent. If the machine doesn’t allow then you need to adjust your window to optimize the Doppler angle.

    Thanks that was very comprehensive. Any suggestions about applying traction for loose skin. Sometimes i run into issues puncturing the vein on older patients.

  • @MetroHealthEmergencyUltrasound
    @MetroHealthEmergencyUltrasound5 ай бұрын

    Thank you. Loose skin is less important with ultrasound. Once you get under the skin, follow the ultrasound to guide the needle to the vein. Rolling veins can be a problem. When you get the needle tip over the vein where you can see some tenting of the vein wall, give the needle a sharp pop and you can usually get the needle tip in the vein.
