Pediatric Research Collaborative for Critical Ultrasound: Create and share trusted CCUS methods for improving patient care through practice, research, education
How do we interpret LV function from cardiac ultrasound? Dr. Sandeep Tripathi, MD explores this topic this week.

Ultrasound is important in peripheral vascular access. Dr. Jesse Wenger, MD presents a comprehensive talk on planning, placing, and evaluating US-guided PIVs and midlines. (10/12/2022) https://t.co/t3LMWdgrnY
How do we document POCUS correctly in pediatrics? Dr. Michelle Ramírez, MD presents on essentials of POCUS Documentation and Billing (9/22/2022) https://t.co/51XJpSQAxQ
Join us next W 8/24/22 at 3p ET/12n PT for our education series talk "Current Evidence on Ultrasound for Shock Management", presented by Erik Su, MD at TCH. Please DM for Zoom details
Our first project: Optic Nerve Sheath Diameter Ultrasound may help evaluate ICP but we need to discover well defined thresholds for interpretation. https://t.co/YysPcrFKCZ
Let's collaborate together to standardize our methodology by identifying issues, proposing practical bedside methods, developing them and implementing them safely for the health of our patients. In all of this support each other as researchers and clinicians.
Reasons for proposing PeRCCUS: with rapidly expanding roles of critical care ultrasound, attention towards its regulation and safety profile have arisen as well:
Actually there are over 130 US EM US Fellowships @SCUFellowships. @NBE_96 and @APCA_council offer certification processes for all physicians. Data archiving PACS products exist for #POCUS users, but protocols can vary--has this led to our negative trials?
Pediatric research in critical care ultrasound! How to teach, credential and standardize use of US in critically ill children. Fellowship development? ... @Emory_EgPicu #palisi20 @PALISInet #PedICU

While use rapidly expanding, is outstripping guidelines and training. #ECRI listed as #2 risk factor, report endorsed by joint commission.
Do you have insights on how we can solidify the evidence behind critical care US with proven protocols, a data-driven view of the practice, and translating that into materials to help decision makers? DM us and let’s get to work.
