Rippey JCR et al. – Point–of–care ultrasound is well suited for use in the emergency setting for assessment of the trauma patient. Ultrasound can also be used at the bedside to guide procedures in trauma, including nerve blocks and vascular access. Importantly, these examinations are being performed by the treating physician in real time, allowing for immediate changes to management of the patient. Controversy remains in determining the best training to ensure competence in this user–dependent imaging modality.
