Optimizing Impella Transport with Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS)
Integrating POCUS into transport protocols can revolutionize patient care and outcome in critical
care scenarios. Today, host Shane Turner sits down with flight paramedic Isaac Bennett to explore the critical role of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in the management of Impellasupported patients during transport. With 14 years of EMS experience, including 7 years flying with the Hospital Wing program based in Memphis, Isaac shares his expert insights on how POCUS can guide Impella positioning, monitor volume status, and troubleshoot alarms effectively, even in challenging pre-hospital environments.
Plus, they discuss practical techniques for obtaining clear cardiac views and the importance oflandmarks and regular practice. This episode is a must-listen for transport clinicians looking to enhance their diagnostic capabilities and improve patient outcomes with POCUS.
