Abstract (AI)
Lung ultrasound can be routinely performed at the bedside by intensive care unit physicians and may provide accurate information on lung status with diagnostic and therapeutic relevance. This article reviews the performance of bedside lung ultrasound for diagnosing pleural effusion, pneumothorax, alveolar-interstitial syndrome, lung consolidation, pulmonary abscess and lung recruitment/derecruitment in critically ill patients with acute lung injury.
Key Findings
1
Bedside lung ultrasound can be routinely performed by intensive care physicians and provides clinically relevant information on lung status.
2
Lung ultrasound can assess lung recruitment and derecruitment in patients with acute lung injury, informing therapeutic management.
3
Lung ultrasound supports diagnosis of pleural effusion, pneumothorax, alveolar-interstitial syndrome, lung consolidation, and pulmonary abscess in critically ill patients.
4
The review highlights bedside lung ultrasound as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool in critical care practice.
