Synopsis

A Portable, Practical Guide to Point-of-Care Ultrasound for Emergency and Critical Care

Point-of-Care Ultrasound is a concise, image-rich, and clinically focused resource designed to guide healthcare professionals through the fundamentals and advanced applications of Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) in emergency, critical care, and field settings. This first edition serves as a pocket reference that outlines essential scanning techniques, diagnostic protocols, and ultrasound-guided procedures across a wide range of organ systems and clinical presentations.

With foundational chapters covering ultrasound physics, transducer selection, and scanning techniques, the guide progresses through high-yield clinical protocols, including trauma (E-FAST), cardiac and lung evaluation, abdominal emergencies, vascular access, and soft tissue assessment. Clear illustrations and abundant images demonstrate proper probe positioning and image interpretation, helping clinicians quickly identify both normal anatomy and critical findings.

Designed for rapid decision-making in emergent and resource-limited settings, this book also features QR codes throughout that link to instructional videos―perfect for reinforcing technique and image recognition when offline access is needed. No matter what type of provider you are or the environment you work in, this essential guide puts life-saving diagnostic tools at your fingertips.
