Neonatal and Pediatric Ultrasound BachelorClass

In this chapter, we will describe the importance of neonatal point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). We highlight how neonatal anatomy and physiology are different than children and adults. The neonatal uniqueness deserves a separate dedicated POCUS class.

In this chapter, we will talk about basic neonatal cardiac POCUS views, LV systolic function, fluid assessment, umbilical venous catheter position, and pericardial effusion.

In this chapter, we will introduce you to neonatal lung ultrasound, discuss how to perform neonatal lung ultrasound, and cover neonatal lung ultrasound clinical applications.

In this chapter, we will introduce you to neonatal abdominal ultrasound, ultrasound-guided paracentesis, and neonatal bladder ultrasound.

In this chapter, we will cover emergent cranial ultrasound - anatomy & pathology.

This chapter will cover basic spinal ultrasound and ultrasound-guided lumbar puncture.

Let's put all your learned skills into one scanning protocol for common POCUS applications.
