Research and Reviews in the Fastlane 117
This study looked at adding the high frequency linear transducer after failure to identify IUP with the standard transducer.

(It seems like it is helpful if you can see a probable gestational sac, but can’t identify a fetal pole or yolk sac). Recommended by: Justin Morgenstern Pediatrics Padua AP et al. Isotonic versus hypotonic saline solution for maintenance intravenous fluid therapy in children: a systematic review. Pediatr Nephrol. 2015; 30(7): 1163-7...
