“…4,5 However, ultrasound-guided peripheral IVs (USGPIVs) suffer from a failure rate of up to 8% in the first hour after placement and 47% within the first 24 hours after placement. 4,6,7 This is much higher than traditionally placed IVs, which have reported failure rates of only 6-32% after three days.…”

“…The literature supports the ability of general emergency physicians to use point-of-care US to improve the care of adult patients by accurately diagnosing time-sensitive and common ED conditions, decreasing patient lengths of stay, 15,[39][40][41] and reducing complications. 15,[42][43][44][45] Furthermore, emergency physicians are able to achieve competency in performing point-of-care US for various indications after completing adequate training. 20,26,[46][47][48] Point-of-care US in pediatric patients by PEM providers has recently been adopted into practice, and the literature is still evolving.…”

Point-of-Care Ultrasonography by Pediatric Emergency Medicine Physicians

2015

Emergency physicians have used point-of-care ultrasonography since the 1990s. Pediatric emergency medicine physicians have more recently adopted this technology. Point-of-care ultrasonography is used for various scenarios, particularly the evaluation of soft tissue infections or blunt abdominal trauma and procedural guidance. To date, there are no published statements from national organizations specifically for pediatric emergency physicians describing the incorporation of point-of-care ultrasonography into their practice. This document outlines how pediatric emergency departments may establish a formal point-of-care ultrasonography program. This task includes appointing leaders with expertise in point-of-care ultrasonography, effectively training and credentialing physicians in the department, and providing ongoing quality assurance reviews.Point-of-care ultrasonography (US) is a bedside technology that enables clinicians to integrate clinical examination findings with real-time sonographic imaging. General emergency physicians and other specialists have used point-of-care US for many years, and more recently, pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) physicians have adopted point-of-care US as a diagnostic and procedural adjunct. This technical report and accompanying policy statement 1 provide a framework for point-of-care US training and point-of-care US integration into pediatric care by PEM physicians.

“…The resultant 12 articles were reviewed for comments on technique in the skill of USGPIV placement. [3][4][5][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] Although the literature search yielded information on the benefits of USGPIV placement in pediatrics patients, the articles contained limited information on the procedural steps for placement of the line. Relevant sections of Roberts & Hedges' Clinical Procedures in Emergency Medicine were reviewed to develop a list of essential tasks for this procedure.…”

“…Baseline information about previous experience with USGPIV placement in pediatrics and adult patients and level of training was collected via a survey instrument (provided as online supplemental material). Resident participants were divided into 3 skill levels based on their report of previous experience with the following definitions: novice (0-5 USGPIV), intermediate (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20), and expert (. 20 USGPIV).…”

Background Ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous line (USGPIV) placement is becoming an important tool in current clinical practice. Many residency programs utilize unstructured clinical observation to evaluate residents in this and other procedural skills. Simulation-based assessment permits educators to make objective, standardized observations, and may be ideal for assessment of important procedural competencies.
