摘要

使用护理点超声（POCUS）诊断和治疗腹腔镜脓肿（PTA）的患者越来越多1。其优点已得到证实，包括提高了诊断准确率和治疗成功率，减少了耳鼻喉科会诊、计算机断层扫描（CT）使用、急诊科（ED）复诊和住院时间1。我们介绍了一例利用 POCUS 诊断并成功治疗 PTA 患者的病例，避免了耳鼻喉科会诊和 CT 的需要。

The Use of Point of Care Ultrasound in Diagnosis of Peritonsillar Abscess.

The use of point of care ultrasound (POCUS) for diagnosis and treatment of peritonsillar abscess (PTA) is increasing 1. Proven advantages include improved diagnostic accuracy and treatment success rates as well as decreased otolaryngology consultation, computed tomography (CT) usage, return visits to the emergency department (ED), and length of stay 1. We present a case of a patient with a PTA that was diagnosed and successfully treated utilizing POCUS, avoiding the need for otolaryngology consultation and CT.
