However, little data exist demonstrating the impact of personnel credentialing on completeness and efficiency. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate exam completeness and efficiency among staff with an advanced cardiac sonographer (ACS) credential, Registered Diagnostic Cardiac Sonographer or Registered Cardiac Sonographer and noncredentialed staff. Materials and Methods: Retrospective review of adult and pediatric echocardiograms at eight facilities in three states. Exam completeness was compared with Intersocietal Accreditation Commission (IAC) standards and completeness by pathology was compared with the American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) standards. Results: This study was based on the review of 1147 patient cases. Of the cases reviewed, 60.3% were performed by credentialed (non-ACS) sonographers, 28.3% were completed by credentialed ACS, and 11.3% by noncredentialed staff. The credentialed staff completed exams ≤ 12 hours. The exams were reviewed for compliance with IAC standards and completed by ACS staff: 80.0% in aortic stenosis and 55.6% in non-ACS staff. Those patient cases for mitral regurgitation (14/19) were 73.7% IAC compliant, cases completed by credentialed non-ACS (20/56) were 35.7% compliant, and those completed by noncredentialed sonographers (2/11) only 18.2% were compliant. Cases specific to patent ductus arteriosus were 92.1% compliant with IAC standards that were completed by ACS compared with 77.9% completed by non-ACS staff. Cases of pulmonary hypertension were also evaluated for IAC compliance and 61.8% met the standard with ASE versus 41.7% completed by non-ACS. Conclusion: Examinations performed by ACS are more often complete in important pathology. Examination efficiency is highest among credentialed sonographers.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135803349","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of this scoping review was to map the evidence base regarding the use of LUS to assess cardiac surgery patients. Materials and Methods: The JBI methodology was used to conduct this particular scoping review. Results: In total, 90 publications were identified and of those, 73 were research studies, six were narrative reviews, and 11 were narrative, opinion, and text articles. The studies that were included were predominantly observational cohorts and aimed to determine or compare LUS diagnostic ability, prognostic ability, or both. The LUS methods used with patients were heterogeneous and variably reported. Conclusion: Despite an increasing number of studies since 2014, standardized protocols for the use of LUS are yet to be widely adopted and remain an important area for further work. Future research should consider exploring perceptions and experiences of LUS, the use of LUS in treatment outcome measurement, and use by nonphysician health care professionals.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136059998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This cross-sectional cohort study included 300 individuals of all ages selected through convenient sampling at a university clinic in Lahore from November 2022 to February 2023. An Xario XG ultrasound equipment system (Toshiba, Tokyo, Japan) and a 7.5- to 10-MHz linear transducer was used to examine the patients. The CCA-IMT was evaluated in 300 individuals (mean age 36.83 years). Significant statistical differences were observed between hypertensive/non-hypertensive and diabetic/non-diabetic individuals ( P < .05). CCA-IMT was positively correlated with age and higher in obese/overweight individuals. This large cohort study found a significant difference in CCA-IMT between hypertensive/diabetic and normal individuals. CCA-IMT was positively correlated with age and body mass index.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78930596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A meta-analysis was performed to identify normative values stratified by anatomic location. A meta-regression was conducted to examine heterogeneity effects of age, sex, and laterality.Results: The meta-analysis included 73 studies; 41 (56.2%) were high quality. The median nerve CSA [95% CI] was 6.46mm2 [6.09-6.84], 8.68mm2 [8.22-9.13], and 8.60mm2 [8.23-8.97] at the proximal forearm, the carpal tunnel inlet, and the proximal carpal tunnel, respectively. Age was positively associated with CSA at the level of proximal carpal tunnel (β=0.03mm2, p=0.047). Men (9.42mm2, [8.06-10.78]) had statistically larger proximal tunnel CSA (p = 0.03) as compared to women (7.71mm2, [7.01-8.42]). No difference was noted in laterality.Conclusion: A reference value for median nerve CSA in the carpal tunnel is 8.60mm2. Adjustments may be required in pediatrics or older adults. The diagnostic threshold of 10.0mm2 for male patients should be cautiously applied as the upper limit of normative averages surpasses this threshold.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10468154/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10152153","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}

Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional and analytical study including 188 patients of varied ages that had 251 suspected long bone fractures. It was conducted over a 9-month period, in the emergency department of a teaching hospital, within the Swat district of Pakistan. After assessing the clinical symptoms of the fracture by an emergency orthopedic physician, sonography was followed by a radiograph performed for these referred patients. Results: Sonography shows a diagnostic accuracy of 91.23% for detecting long bone fractures, with a sensitivity and specificity of 100% and 76.84%, respectively. The positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 87.64% and 100%, respectively. Sonography was able to detect small fractures (up to 0.23 mm) that are often missed on the patient’s radiograph. Conclusion: Sonography may be useful as an initial screening imaging technique for the diagnosis of long bone fractures. The potential exists to reduce the need for unnecessary skeletal radiographs, which could reduce treatment time, cost, and ionizing radiation hazards.","PeriodicalId":45758,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF DIAGNOSTIC MEDICAL SONOGRAPHY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-08-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80621134","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
