In this case, a man in his late 50s presented to the emergency department with respiratory distress and rapidly deteriorated, requiring invasive ventilation and intensive care unit admission for septic shock and multiorgan dysfunction. LUS revealed extensive consolidation with linear-arborescent dynamic air bronchogram, specific for community-acquired and ventilator-associated pneumonia, with a global LUS score of 22, indicating significant severity. LUS demonstrated greater sensitivity and specificity compared to chest radiography, allowing for a more reliable and timely diagnosis. The use of LUS was especially valuable given the patient's hemodynamic instability, which made computed tomography unfeasible. As a portable, radiation-free imaging modality, LUS offers significant advantages over traditional methods, particularly in emergency and critical care settings, where rapid bedside assessments are essential for guiding treatment and ensuring continuous patient monitoring.","PeriodicalId":45466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasound","volume":"33 1","pages":"61-63"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11978255/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143986959","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}

Polyhydramnios is linked to complications such as placental abruption, preterm labor, congenital anomalies, and postpartum hemorrhage, emphasizing the need for early detection and management. While idiopathic causes account for 60%-70% of cases, other causes include impaired fetal swallowing and increased urine production due to maternal, fetal, and placental conditions. Accurate amniotic fluid volume (AFV) assessment and surveying the underlying cause are important, with ultrasound methods such as deep vertical pocket (DVP) and amniotic fluid index (AFI) preferred. Polyhydramnios is defined by an AFV exceeding 2000 ml, an AFI over 24 cm, or DVP more than 8 cm. Management typically targets underlying causes, with treatments such as amnioreduction and indomethacin for severe cases. Antepartum monitoring includes detailed fetal ultrasound, genomic and genetic examinations, and tests for maternal diabetes and infections. Intrapartum management addresses complications such as malpresentation and shoulder dystocia, whereas postpartum care involves monitoring for uterine atony and hemorrhage. Perinatal outcomes in idiopathic polyhydramnios are generally poorer, with increased risks of fetal demise, preterm delivery, and neonatal complications, but these results may need further stratification and verification.","PeriodicalId":45466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasound","volume":"32 4","pages":"285-290"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11717093/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142972714","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}

We hypothesized that ultrasonography identification of SCN within the IL-DCF and needle tip positioned between the layers of IL-DCF provide an alternative site for the blockade of the SCN.Results: After dissection, we described a compact double-layered IL-DCF hosting the SCNs and a specific topographic arrangement at the C4 root with SCN lateral and C4 branches of the phrenic nerve medial to the C4.Conclusion: We recommend another alternative site for the SCN block at a site in the compact double layer of IL-DCF. We conclude that a caudal site at the exit of SCN from the IL-DCF would be appropriate to perform the intervention.","PeriodicalId":45466,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Medical Ultrasound","volume":"32 4","pages":"318-322"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2024-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11717074/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142972712","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}
