Physical Exam Versus Exam + POCUS for diagnostic accuracy in shoulder dislocation:

Dx dislocation: Exam 65%, POCUS 100%

Detect prox humeral fractures: Exam 45.7%, POCUS 98.3% (POCUS has LR+=103.9 and LR-=0.03)

Confirm Reduction: Exam 68.7%, POCUS 100%

@EdHill0 @ThePoCUSCourse @PEM_Ultrasound TL;DR

Prehospital POCUS can 100% be used to diagnose paediatric forearm fractures, but we don’t have the evidence to support whether it’s safe to perform regional anaesthesia on distal limb fractures in Paeds prehospitally yet.

[Dr Aidan Baron @Aidan_Baron]

@EdHill0 @ThePoCUSCourse So
POCUS absolutely has a role in diagnosing Paeds Forearm fractures
And there’s been some excellent work by @PEM_Ultrasound and many others on this.

I’m not sure haematoma blocks or regional distal limb blocks in kids outside of hospital is ready for prime time yet 1/
