@NatasaSpr POCUS has been adopted by many physicians over the past decades and has been integrated in CA algorithms for the detection and treatment of reversible causes such as pneumothorax and cardiac tamponade. Many different protocols have been proposed. (Anesthesiology 2021;135:508–519) 
@NatasaSpr Pearls and Pitfalls
❌Right Ventricular dilation during CA: In isolation should not be used to diagnose massive PE. It is observed minutes after CA as blood shifts from systemic circulation to the right heart, probably as a result of hypovolaemia, hyperkalaemia and arrhythmia.
