Über diesen Titel

 In this episode, Ben & Tom explore the critical role of point-of-care ultrasound (pPOCUS) during cardiac arrest. Together, they dive into the power — and the pitfalls — of using ultrasound to identify reversible causes like tamponade, pulmonary embolism, and tension pneumothorax. They discuss how pPOCUS can help differentiate true PEA from pseudo PEA and guide life-saving decisions in both traumatic and non-traumatic arrests. But there’s a catch: ultrasound can extend pauses in chest compressions, with potentially harmful consequences.
From peri-arrest insights to penetrating trauma scenarios, this conversation highlights when — and how — ultrasound truly adds value. The key takeaway? pPOCUS can be a powerful ally in resuscitation, but only when used with precision, preparation, and a well-coordinated team.
