“…In the hospital, point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has become an increasingly popular bedside tool for the assessment of similarly undifferentiated patients by emergency physicians, allowing for early and accurate diagnosis of life-threatening diagnoses such as ectopic pregnancy, abdominal aortic aneurysm, and cardiogenic shock (Lewis et al, 2019). Recent technological advances have allowed for the expansion of handheld POCUS to the prehospital environment, offering an innovative way for prehospital practitioners to improve their diagnostic accuracy (Hermann et al, 2022;Smallwood & Dachsel, 2018). Moreover, several studies have identified the feasibility of POCUS by non-physicians (Amaral et al, 2020;Becker et al, 2018;Bøtker et al, 2018;Laursen et al, 2016;Nadim et al, 2021;Pietersen et al, 2021), with non-physician practitioners identifying conditions such as cardiogenic pulmonary edema and abdominal aortic aneurysm with high sensitivity and specificity (Laursen et al, 2016;Schoeneck et al, 2021).…”
