Using Point-Of-Care Ultrasound To Characterize Acute Inguinal Swelling Of Young Children In The Pediatric Emergency Department
PEDIATRIC EMERGENCY CARE(2020)
摘要
Acute inguinal swelling in young children is frequently assumed to be an inguinal hernia, often prompting a bedside reduction attempt. We report 3 cases of inguinal swelling where the use of point-of-care ultrasound changed the patients' management by identifying an alternate diagnosis, thus avoiding unnecessary and painful procedures as well as their associated sedation risks.
