Cardiac Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS): Extending the Reach

This issue of JASE features a new ASE Guidelines and Standards document, Recommendations for Cardiac Point-of-Care Ultrasound in Children: A Report from the American Society of Echocardiography.1 This document is the result of a unique collaboration of experts from pediatric departments of cardiology, critical care medicine, emergency medicine, and anesthesiology. Whereas cardiac POCUS has become a required skill in adult emergency medicine and critical care training programs, similar standardization of training in pediatric non-cardiology specialties has not been established.
