Ultrasound-guided Greater Auricular Nerve Block for Emergency Department Ear Laceration and Ear Abscess Drainage
Adequate emergency department (ED) anesthesia for painful ear conditions, such as ear lacerations or ear abscesses, can be challenging. Much of the sensory innervation of the ear is supplied from the anterior and posterior branches of the greater auricular nerve (GAN). The GAN is a branch of the superficial cervical plexus, which arises from the C2/C3 spinal roots. The GAN innervation includes most of the helix, antihelix, the lobule, and the skin over the mastoid process and parotid gland. Anesthesia of the GAN is commonly performed in emergency medicine as part of a landmark-based ear “ring” block.

Embolic Central Retinal Artery Occlusion Detected with Point-of-care Ultrasonography in the Emergency Department
Ocular emergencies account for 2–3% of all emergency department (ED) visits. Sonographic evaluation of the eye offers a very useful diagnostic tool in the ED. In the ED setting, ocular ultrasound could identify a retinal detachment, or a massive vitreous hemorrhage, and the training for emergency medicine practitioners is quite easy.

Nonstandard Advance Directives in Emergency Medicine: What Should We Do?
Critically ill or injured emergency department or prehospital patients who lack decision-making capacity sometimes present with a non-standard advance directive, such as a “Do Not Resuscitate” tattoo or medallion. Emergency clinicians must immediately address the question of whether to withhold treatment based on what may or may not be a valid patient directive.

Diagnosis of an Acute Lobar Nephronia in the Emergency Department Using POINT-OF-CARE Ultrasound
Over the past decade, point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) has been performed increasingly in pediatric emergency medicine for a variety of indications. POCUS is a focused, limited, goal-directed examination at the bedside performed and interpreted by a physician trained in POCUS with the purpose of answering a specific question. Applying POCUS for immediate evaluation of specific emergent complaints may allow for faster and safer management of ill patients in the pediatric emergency department (ED).

Point-of-Care Ultrasound for Evaluating Lymphadenopathy in the Pediatric Emergency Department: Case Series and Review of Literature
Children present to the pediatric emergency department (ED) with enlarged lymph nodes due to a broad spectrum of conditions ranging from benign causes like reactive lymph nodes to adverse conditions like malignancy. Identifying sonographic features typical of infection, inflammation, and neoplasms will help assist clinicians in deciding the disposition of the patients from the ED. Point-of-care ultrasound has become an essential adjunct for diagnostic assessment in pediatric emergency medicine. The wider accessibility of ultrasound along with greater resolution using high-frequency probes places this noninvasive, nonradiat...

Quantitative and Qualitative Analysis of Emergency Physician Performed Biparietal Diameter Estimate for Gestational Age
An accurate estimation of fetal gestational age is essential for the management of pregnant patients who present to the emergency department (ED). Point-of-care-ultrasound (POCUS) is an integral part of emergency medicine training and includes measurement of fetal gestational age by the biparietal diameter (BPD) method.

Multi-Institution Validation of an Emergency Ultrasound Image Rating Scale—A Pilot Study
As bedside ultrasound (BUS) is being increasingly taught and incorporated into emergency medicine practice, measurement of BUS competency is becoming more important. The commonly adopted experiential approach to BUS competency has never been validated on a large scale, and has some limitations by design.
