Abstract

Point-of-care ultrasonography is increasingly being used to facilitate accurate abstract and timely diagnoses and to guide procedures. It is important for pediatric emergency medicine (PEM) physicians caring for patients in the emergency department to receive adequate and continued point-of-care ultrasonography training for those indications used in their practice setting. Emergency departments should have credentialing and quality assurance programs. PEM fellowships should provide appropriate training to physician trainees. Hospitals should provide privileges to physicians who demonstrate competency in point-of-care ultrasonography. Ongoing research will provide the necessary measures to define the optimal training and competency assessment standards. Requirements for credentialing and hospital privileges will vary and will be specific to individual departments and hospitals. As more physicians are trained and more research is completed, there should be one national standard for credentialing and privileging in point-of-care ultrasonography for PEM physicians.

Abstract

Abstract: Background: Superficial soft-tissue infections (SSTI) are frequently managed in the emergency department (ED). Soft-tissue bedside ultrasound (BUS) for SSTI has not been specifically studied in the pediatric ED setting. Objective: To evaluate the effect of a soft-tissue BUS evaluation on the clinical diagnosis and management of pediatric superficial soft-tissue infection. Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study in two urban academic pediatric EDs. Eligible patients were aged < 18 years presenting with suspected SSTI. Before BUS, treating physicians were asked to assess the likelihood of subcutaneous fluid collection and whether further treatment would require medical management or invasive management. A trained emergency physician then performed a BUS of the lesion(s). A post-test questionnaire assessed whether the physician changed the initial management plan based on the results of the BUS. Results: BUS changed management in 11/50 cases. After initial clinical assessment, 20 patients were designated to receive invasive management, whereas the remaining 30 patients were designated to receive medical management. Management changed in 6/20 in the invasive group. In the medical group, 5/30 patients changed management. BUS had a sensitivity of 90% (95% confidence interval [CI] 77–100%) and specificity of 83% (05% CI 70–97%), whereas clinical suspicion had a sensitivity of 75% (95% CI 56–94%) and specificity of 80% (95% CI 66–94%) in detecting fluid collections requiring drainage. Conclusions: BUS evaluation of pediatric SSTI may be a useful clinical adjunct for the emergency physician. It changed management in 22% of cases by detecting subclinical abscesses or avoiding unnecessary invasive procedures. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
