#POCUS#VExUS img of the day: Intrarenal PWD showing D-only pattern.
"Recent echo (3 mo) said normal right atrial pressure"
Lesson: Hemodynamics are dynamic. Always perform physical exam (= #POCUS) before making recommendations, particularly in #cardiorenal medicine.

It's been more than 4 years that I've been trying to get a hang of TCCD. It doesn't give me the desired images always . Failure rate 20% notwithstanding , it's certainly golden determining intracranial circulatory arrest . @ThinkingCC@Wilkinsonjonny@iceman_ex@curromir@NephroP
Tamponade tweetorial
1/
68m with a h/o COPD and lymphoma, presented with SOB unrelieved with home albuterol. Had an O2 sat 88% with EMS which improved with CPAP. BP 87/50 and HR 160 which improved to BP 127/70 and HR 115 after 1 L of LR. Exam had increased WOB and clear lungs
@kyliebaker888 I had a conversation (tweet based) with @iceman_ex re this and bow to your combined wisdom here.
So what does POCUS really make a difference with? As @Manoj_Wickram exemplifies - rapid diagnostics. This translates to reduced waste/cost.
Clever study here:

Sensitivity of EKG in the diagnosis of cardiac tamponade 👇
Physical examination (= #POCUS) detects the effusion and its hemodynamic effect much better 🤔

Thanks to @michaelc0ver for this incredible clip! CTA showed type A aortic dissection with equivocal extension into the carotid! POCUS confirmed carotid dissection! #FOAMed#FOAMus#POCUS#MedEd#ultrasound#MedTwitter

Thanks to @JediPocus for this clip of a cardiac myxoma! Patient presented with hypotension and a RUSH exam revealed this large hyperechoic mass in the right heart! #FOAMed#FOAMus#POCUS#MedEd#ultrasound#MedTwitter

Today’s Tweetorial for you!
We look at basic cardiac #POCUS views👍 🫀
First; the Parasternal Long Axis (PLAX)
#FOAMed#FOAMcc#echofirst
Probe position shown with marker to right shoulder, left Parasternal edge; roughly at intercostal spaces 2-3/3-4🤷♂️
🤔✅Tengo un ultrasonido, y Quiero ver el estado de volumen intravascular de px, para ver si se beneficiaria o NO de líquidos IV.
