Gastric POCUS & Sedation
30/01/2023 Duración: 18minDelia and Lianne take on the topic of pediatric gastric POCUS. Is it a helpful way to assess the effect of fasting prior to procedural sedation? Is fasting itself a helpful way to empty the stomach?? https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/140 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32769837/

The State of POCUS
16/01/2023 Duración: 24minVicki Noble is a veritable legend of point of care ultrasound. Zach and Mike are lucky enough to sit down with this proverbial fountain of wisdom and scoop some razor insights into the past, present and future of the field.

Ultrasound vs Landmark Subclavians
19/12/2022 Duración: 17minThis episode has been a long time coming! We're talking ultrasound-guided subclavian central lines, and a lot of people have opinions. Are they better than landmark? What should we teach learners? The GEL team discusses through the lens of this fascinating RCT. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/138 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35562246/

Carotid Compression in CPR
05/12/2022 Duración: 15minWe can only go so long without talking about cardiac arrest! Here is the latest idea - using sonographic carotid compression to help determine if a pulse is present. Can it save time compared to manual palpation and thus help our patients? https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/137 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35792305/
-
Pediatric IVC Collapse
07/11/2022 Duración: 15minAnother Bonus Cuts author interview - this time with Amy Zhou, Pediatric Emergency Medicine specialist and first author of the recently reviewed article on IVC collapse duration. Zach and Mike ask the hard questions about how this paper came to be and how we should be thinking about the IVC in our pediatric patients. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/136
-
Pneumoperitoneum
24/10/2022 Duración: 13minPneumoperitoneum is usually bad news for patients, and it would be great to have a quick way to make this diagnosis. These authors ingeniously used ultrasound contrast software (without any contrast) to boost the accuracy of ultrasound for this pathology! https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/135 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35204492/
-
Nasogastric Tube Placement
28/09/2022 Duración: 15minNew idea alert! Should we be using POCUS to guide nasogastric tube placement? Crazy? Unnecessary, you say? Well listen in to the discussion of this interesting randomized controlled trial designed to answer this burning question. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/134 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35834792/
-
Ultrasound-Guided Arthrocentesis
12/09/2022 Duración: 10minIn our second in the series of Bonus Cuts, Zach and Mike interview the illustrious Ryan Gibbons for his take on arthrocentesis and a discussion of his research in the field. What an exciting joint venture! https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/133
-
Duration of IVC Collapse
29/08/2022 Duración: 15minWhat do we do with IVC's in kids?! The GEL Jr squad tackles a fascinating article that might have the answer. These authors looked at the Inferior Vena Cava collapse duration in children with dehydration. Will this novel measurement help with figuring out who needs IV fluids? https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/132 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32530838/

The POCUS Manifesto Part 2
01/08/2022 Duración: 14minPart 2 of this Special Edition episode with Larry Istrail, author of the POCUS Manifesto. More great talk about POCUS, the physical exam, and ultrasound research. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/131
-
The POCUS Manifesto Part 1
18/07/2022 Duración: 16minIn this Special Edition episode, Mike and Creagh interview physician, entrepreneur, and author Larry Istrail discussing his recent book The POCUS Manifesto! Awesome discussion of the ups and downs of implementing, teaching, and researching POCUS. Part 1 of 2. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/130

Neonatal Central Line Positioning
04/07/2022 Duración: 18minIf you take care of neonates, the last thing you need to worry about is vascular access! In this episode the GEL Jr. team discusses an article on using POCUS to confirm central catheter placement. Can it save these babies a few xrays?

Brief Echo in Cardiac Arrest
20/06/2022 Duración: 15minThis clever study questions which cardiac view is best to obtain during a cardiac arrest. By using a simulated arrest scenario on living non-cardiac arrest patients, they compare the subxiphoid window and the parasternal long axis view in terms of speed and image quality. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/128 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35065867/

Jugular Venous Pressure
06/06/2022 Duración: 17minJugular venous distention (JVD) is a classic physical exam finding taught for ages, but assessing it can be a challenge. Can ultrasound do a better job and therefore offer a non-invasive evaluation of the patient’s right heart pressures? This goal has been the pursuit of many ultrasounds before. This time we have a new vessel to assess and a nice reference standard (right heart cath)! https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/127https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34958600/

The challenge was to create the best infographic for a POCUS article of the team's choice. The winning team was from Boston Medical Center. This podcast is a brief discussion of the article and the graphic this talented team created. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/126 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33795166/

US-Guided Arthrocentesis
22/04/2022 Duración: 12minIn this episode, Mike and Jacob dive into an important intersection of musculoskeletal and procedural ultrasound - the ultrasound-guided arthrocentesis. People have been doing arthrocentesis without the help of ultrasound for a while, and most would agree it is feasible. BUT what about those smaller joints - like the wrist, elbow, and ankle? Perhaps that is where the greatest benefit would be in making sure your needle gets to the right place. These authors performed a randomized trial of this specific population to investigate this question. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/124 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34608713/

Intussusception
07/04/2022 Duración: 19minIntussusception is a big deal and an area where POCUS can potentially make a difference. The literature has been promising, but there hasn't been any definitive studies...until now? The GEL Jr hosts dive into this impressive prospective, multicenter, non-inferiority study and (much like an air enema) they try to get to the bottom of this question to reduce our impacted uncertainty. https://www.ultrasoundgel.org/123 https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34226072/
