Ultrasound I: Abdominal Ultrasonography

222
Introduction:
Abdominal ultrasonography, commonly known as abdominal ultrasound, is a vital, non-invasive medical imaging technique widely used in healthcare.
Procedure:
This diagnostic tool allows the clinician to visually inspect internal structures within the abdomen, including vital organs such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, kidneys, and spleen.
The abdominal ultrasound process begins with applying a special gel to the patient's skin over the abdomen. This gel enhances the...

Assessment of the Abdomen II: Percussion

331
Percussion is a fundamental technique used to assess the liver, spleen, and abdominal organs by tapping the abdomen and interpreting the resulting sounds. This method helps identify fluid, distention, and masses through variations in sound, such as the high-pitched tympany of air-filled areas and the dullness of solid masses. Understanding how to percuss these organs provides valuable information for healthcare professionals in diagnosing conditions early.

Ultrasonography01:17

Ultrasonography

4.5K
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.
During an ultrasonography procedure, a handheld device called...

Area of Science:

  • Emergency Medicine
  • Pain Management
  • Regional Anesthesia

Background:

  • Geriatric hip fractures pose significant analgesia challenges in the emergency department (ED).
  • Opioid-sparing ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment blocks (UFIB) offer a safe and effective alternative for hip fracture pain.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the teachability of UFIB to emergency medicine (EM) residents.
  • To assess whether UFIB training enhances its utility in the ED setting.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a simulation model for UFIB procedure training.
  • Sixteen EM residents participated in a pre-workshop survey and a hands-on UFIB workshop.
  • Analysis of comfort and confidence levels in performing UFIB before and after the workshop.

Main Results:

  • Resident comfort in performing UFIB increased by approximately 50% (p < 0.01).
  • Success rates for UFIB increased significantly by 460% (p < 0.05) post-training.
  • Despite improved skills, 44% of residents cited 'lack of time' as a barrier to UFIB utilization.

Conclusions:

  • A single one-hour workshop effectively improved EM residents' comfort and success with UFIB for hip fracture pain.
  • Underutilization of UFIB persists due to perceived time constraints during clinical shifts.
