Lung Ultrasound for the Regional Anesthesiologist and Acute Pain Specialist.

Abstract
In this article, we discuss the emerging role of lung point-of-care ultrasonography for regional anesthesiologists and pain management specialists. Lung ultrasonography is a well-established clinical tool that is used on a routine basis in emergency rooms and critical care units internationally to evaluate patients with respiratory distress; however, its benefits to the regional anesthesiologist and painspecialist are not as well known and are practiced less frequently. This review article covers the clinical evidence in support of lung point-of-care ultrasonography as a rapid and superior tool to traditional imaging modalities such as chest radiography and fluoroscopy. As anesthesiologists routinely perform nerve blocks that put patients at potential risk of complications such as pneumothorax or diaphragmatic paresis, it is important to understand how to use lung ultrasonography to evaluate for these conditions, as well as to differentiate between other potential causes of respiratory distress, such as interstitial syndrome and pleural effusions. This article describes the normal and pathological findings that can be used to quickly and confidently evaluate a patient for these conditions.

Abstract
Objectives. Lung ultrasonography (LUS) is a useful examination to identify lung problems. Unfortunately, there are currently no LUS educational programs for medical students. We designed a brief LUS training course for medical students during the ED rotation. The purpose of training was improving cognitive and psychomotor learning domains, knowledge of ultrasound, knowledge of LUS, image acquisition, and image interpretation. Methods. Forty students in their fourth year of medical school were enrolled in this study. Student achievement was evaluated through examinations of cognitive and psychomotor skills. A survey was administered following the training. Results. The average test result was 42.1 ± 13.7 before training and 82.6 ± 10.7 after training. With respect to the assessment of LUS performance, the acceptable rates for right and left anterior chest wall scanning and right and left posterolateral scanning were 95%, 97.5%, 92.5%, and 100%, respectively. The students felt a high level of confidence in their ability to administer LUS to patients after training and they agreed that inclusion of LUS training in the medical school curriculum is necessary. Conclusion. This study showed that, among the medical students without ultrasound experience, limited LUS education to improve their knowledge, image acquisition, and interpretation ability was successful.

Abstract 
 BACKGROUND:
Revision shoulder arthroplasty is a technically challenging procedure. It is associated with increased blood loss and operative time, and it frequently necessitates revision implants, augments, and bone-grafting. Shoulder arthroplasty systems with a convertible-platform humeral stem have been developed to reduce the complexity of revision procedures by eliminating the need for humeral component explantation when converting from anatomic shoulder arthroplasty (hemiarthroplasty or total shoulderarthroplasty) to reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA).
CONCLUSIONS:
Shoulder arthroplasty systems that utilize a convertible-platform humeral stem offer an advantage for rTSA conversion in that a well-fixed, well-positioned humeral stem can be retained. There were significantly fewer complications as well as significantly decreased blood loss and operative time when a convertible-platform stem was utilized (p < 0.050).
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE:
Therapeutic Level III. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.
Resumen
ANTECEDENTES:
La artroplastia de hombro de revisión es un procedimiento técnicamente difícil. Se asocia con aumento de la pérdida de sangre y el tiempo quirúrgico, y con frecuencia requiere implantes de revisión, aumentos y injertos óseos. Se han desarrollado sistemas de artroplastia de hombro con un vástago humeral de plataforma convertible para reducir la complejidad de los procedimientos de revisión eliminando la necesidad de explanación de componente humeral al convertir la artroplastia anatómica de hombro (ARTHA).
CONCLUSIONES:
Los sistemas de artroplastia de hombro que utilizan un vástago humeral de plataforma convertible ofrecen una ventaja para la conversión rTSA en que se puede retener un vástago humeral bien fijado y bien posicionado. Hubo significativamente menos complicaciones, así como una disminución significativa de la pérdida de sangre y el tiempo de operación cuando se utilizó un vastago de la plataforma convertible (p <0,050).
