Ocular Point-of-Care Ultrasound: Description of Intermediate Uveitis in an Adolescent Female
Pediatric Emergency Care
|June 28, 2021
Abstract:
Ocular point-of-care ultrasound has been used to assess for intraocular pathology, including retinal and vitreous detachment. We describe a pediatric patient whose initial point-of-care ultrasound examination appeared to be consistent with bilateral posterior vitreous detachment but who was ultimately diagnosed with intermediate uveitis.

Ultrasonography is an imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to visualize the body's internal structures. It is a non-invasive and safe procedure that does not involve the use of ionizing radiation, making it widely used in various medical fields. Ultrasonography is used to study heart function, blood flow in the neck or extremities, certain conditions such as gallbladder disease, and fetal growth and development.

Imaging Studies I: Kidney, Ureter, and Bladder Studies
81
Kidney, Ureter, and Bladder (KUB) StudiesKidney, Ureter, and Bladder (KUB) studies are standard diagnostic imaging procedures used to assess the anatomy of the urinary system. They are commonly utilized for patients experiencing abdominal pain or urinary symptoms. By using a simple X-ray of the abdomen, KUB studies can reveal structural and pathological abnormalities within the kidneys, ureters, and bladder. These studies are particularly valuable in diagnosing kidney stones, urinary...

Open Angle Glaucoma: Treatment
777
In open-angle glaucoma, the iridocorneal angle remains open, but the trabecular meshwork becomes stiff, slowing down the outflow of aqueous humor. This causes a buildup of aqueous humor in the anterior chamber, leading to a sudden increase in intraocular pressure. The treatment for open-angle glaucoma focuses on reducing the elevated intraocular pressure by either decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor or increasing its outflow.
