POCUS: Are we under-or-over Using it

In this episode, we unpack the growing divide between high-value and low-value bedside ultrasound across EDs, ICUs, and retrieval medicine. From missed opportunities in shock and respiratory failure to habitual eFASTs in stable trauma, we explore why overuse and underuse now coexist in the same departments — and sometimes by the same clinicians. We dive into training gaps, workflow friction, human factors, documentation blind spots, and how emerging tools like AI and tele-ultrasound may reshape practice.
