摘要
Objective The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of point-of-care ultrasound( POCUS) in assessm ent of patients with dyspnea in Rapid Response Team( RRT)consultation. 53 patients were included and their pre-POCUS, post-POCUS and final diagnoses were docum ented. Com pared with pre-POCUS diagnoses,the accuracy of postPOCUS diagnoses increased significantly from 37.7% up to 79.2%,P<0.01( final diagnoses as golden standard). When stratified by etiology, we can see that POCUS im proved the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity in m ost of the diseases. But still there were 11 patients in whom POCUS fail to diagnose. And in those POCUS-fail group the m ortality seem ed higher than in POCUS achieved group. In conclusion POCUS is a convenient and useful diagnostic tool which can im prove the diagnostic accuracy of patients with sudden onset of dyspnea in RRT consultation.
