The use of ultrasound in emergency medicine has proved invaluable
in answering very specific, time-critical questions, such as the
presence of an abdominal aortic aneurysm, or of blood in the
abdomen after trauma. Unlike other imaging modalities (e.g. CT
scan) it is a rapid technique that can be brought to the patient
with ease. This book, Emergency Ultrasound Made Easy, is accessible
and easy to use in an emergency. It is aimed mainly at specialists
and trainees in emergency medicine, surgery and intensive care; but
its broad scope (e.g. rapid diagnosis of DVT) makes it an
invaluable addition to the library of any doctor with an interest
in ultrasound, whether in primary care or the hospital setting. A
pocket-sized and practical guide to the appropriate use of
ultrasound in the emergency department. Designed to be used in an
urgent situation (e.g. a shocked trauma patient). Written by team
of international leading experts. This Second Edition has been
comprehensively revised and updated to reflect the major advances
in the practice of bedside ultrasound, and reflects the pioneering
efforts of individual clinicians and the high-quality portable
machines now available. This edition still firmly adheres to the
principles of only using ultrasound where it adds value and only
asking simple questions that may be readily addressed using
ultrasound.
