In this episode of the Inside EMS podcast, hosts Chris Cebollero and Kelly Grayson are staying in the same hotel, but definitely not on the same page. The topic? Point of care ultrasound (POCUS) — is it the future of EMS, or just another flashy tool with little impact in the field?
Chris opens the discussion with skepticism, calling POCUS a “ridiculous” tool that adds no value to his prehospital patient care. Kelly fires back with a defense of POCUS as a powerful, fast and non-invasive tool that can enhance clinical decision-making — if used right.
It’s a spirited back-and-forth loaded with clinical scenarios, sarcasm and a lot of “whatever, man.” Whether you’re team “POCUS is progress” or “scan and stall,” this episode will get you thinking.
“Ultrasound gives you another layer of decision-making support.”
“Point of care ultrasound gives me no ability to change the way I'm treating the patient.”
“It never is a bad thing to know more about the patient.”
