5 Minute Sono

In the 6 years I've been creating 5 Min Sono videos, I've never done a basic ultrasound physics video! Crazy, I know. I finally sat down and made this and am stoked to share it with you! This is video covers the bare minimum ultrasound physics you should know to be comfortable with your ultrasound. In the future I might do a more advanced one to supplement this one!

In this video I talk to you about how to assess the IVC. This isn't going to be a discussion on it's merits, but rather, how to measure it once you've decided that you'd like to measure it. This post had an amazing peer review from Dr. Rory Speigel that you can check out on the website post. Don't forget to check out: Our CME courses here.

This episode is a brand-new update 5 Min Sono video for pericardial tamponade (last one was all the way back in 2016!) While the content is similar, there are a few updates. Check it out! Check out our CME courses here. Question bank here Ultrasound Leadership Academy here.

It's been 5 years since our last version of Pericardial Effusion was debuted, and it's time for an update! Remember: The presence of a pericardial effusion doesn't mean the patient is in tamponade, irrespective of the side of the effusion.

We're Back! The last RUSH exam episode I did was way back in 2014 (when I was still a resident!) It's definitely past time for an update. This update was peer reviewed by the one and only Scott Weingart (who also invented the exam). Check it out and all my other content at www.Coreultrasound.com

It's been a great few years! Its time to consolidate all the projects I'm currently working. Over the past year I've been working to move 5 minute sono, ultrasound podast and ultrasound of the week onto ONE website called www.coreultrasound.com. This will be the last 5 minute sono podcast I'll be sending out on this channel, and it's a good one! This week, we're going to talk about regional wall motion abnormalities! I will definitely still be making podcasts, but they will be published on the Ultrasound Podcast (if you haven't already subscribed to us there, please do! To clarify, I'm still going to be making the same great content, I'm just going to be publishing it on the ultrasound podcast, and on coreultraound.com. Thanks!!

Two days ago I told you how I find arm veins for ultrasound-guided IV's. Today, I'll walk you through what to do when you can't find any arm veins (which honestly, is rare). Then I summarize how to approach the patient with difficult IV access. Check it out! If you are interested in an online ultrasound fellowship, check out ultrasoundleadershipacademy.com!

I recently had a question on the website asking how to find veins when its not super cut-and-dry. In part 1, I'll talk to you about how to find veins in the arm. In part 2, I'll talk about alternatives to arm veins (part 2 will be published in a few days). Check it out!

Even if I work my fastest, it still takes me a few minutes to place my ultrasound-guided IV's. Because of this, I would rather not have to place multiple IV's when they pop out. I have a particular way of taping my IV's to make sure they don't come out. Check out my technique and let me know what you think!

Its is absolutely necessary to switch to the linear transducer when looking for lung sliding (i.e., PTX)? While the linear will definitely give you the best image, watch this video to see my thoughts on using the curvilinear and even the phased array in the eval of lung sliding! While continuing to my work with revamping the Ultrasound Leadership Academy's curriculum, I had this thought. Maybe we don't need to switch every time? Check it out! Want more ultrasound goodness?

The EFAST exam video was one of the first lectures on the website, and as such, was one of the oldest.
