Serving as an extension of traditional examination methods, POCUS is particularly appealing to the next generation of clinicians. It holds the potential to become the modern-day stethoscope in various medical assessments and procedures. At the University of Rochester, we are in the midst of a major initiative, deploying 2,000 POCUS probes while simultaneously reinforcing compliance standards for image storage and documentation across established POCUS platforms. Three years into our 4-year deployment plan, we will discuss the evolution of our governance structure, improved utilization, continued educational initiatives, and credentialing strategies. Over the past decade, POCUS adoption has grown organically, and our goal is to implement a comprehensive strategy that ensures adherence to established protocols for image storage and documentation. At present, we have successfully deployed 1,199 probes, up from 789 in year 2, with integration across more than 70 departments and divisions within our information technology (IT) platform. Notably, this implementation has led to a 26% growth in hospital charges, highlighting the tangible impact of POCUS integration. However, achieving compliance and education among established providers continues to be a challenge. The integration of fellowship-trained POCUS physicians into various departments has been invaluable, and developing physician champions has significantly improved both utilization and compliance. Recent initiatives include transitioning from traditional bladder scanners to ultrasound (US) probes mounted on iPad stands and developing a nursing POCUS-guided US program. Nursing education has played a pivotal role in supporting this transition. Over the first 6 months, 86 US probes used by nursing staff have facilitated approximately 70,000 bladder examinations.</p>","PeriodicalId":15512,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Clinical Imaging Science","volume":"15 ","pages":"28"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2025-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12361668/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144956169","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
