Abstract
Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) has rapidly evolved into an essential diagnostic tool within Emergency Departments (EDs) in recent years. This review highlights the pivotal role of POCUS in facilitating prompt diagnosis and timely initiation of treatment by Emergency Physicians, leading to notable improvements in patient outcomes. By enabling rapid assessment and aiding in the formulation of a most likely diagnosis within minutes, POCUS contributes significantly to reducing the length of hospital stays and mitigating the morbidity and mortality associated with complications arising from delayed treatment. This abstract underscores the indispensable nature of POCUS in enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of emergency healthcare delivery, ultimately improving patient care and outcomes.
