Probes
AL : Anatomical Landmark SL : Sonographic Landmark AOI : Area of interest PCE : Pericardial Effusion RUQ : Right Upper Quadrant LUQ : Le= Upper Quadrant RVS : Rectovesicular Space UVS : Uterovesicular Space RUS : Rectouterine Space TA : Trans-‐abdominal TV : Trans-‐vaginal ES : Endometrial Stripe
* Preferred probe for applicaCon
IUP : Intrauterine Pregnancy LIUP : Live Intrauterine Pregnancy NDIUP : No Definite IUP DR : Decidual ReacCon
generalized endometrial thickening
GS : GestaConal Sac anechoic sac with a decidual reac4on
YS : Yolk Sac circular, echogenic structure at the edge of but dis4nct from the wall of GS
FP : Fetal Pole small mass at the margin of YS; dis4nct from GS; possible cardiac ac4vity
Aorta
AL : xiphoid SL : vertebral body + shadow AOI : outer wall aorta
q ID landmarks q AOI xiphoid to bifurcation q clip sequential sweeps q caliper AOI max. diameter
Q : AAA ? (Y/N)
Pos : outer diameter ≥ 3cm Neg : outer diameter < 3cm Indet : missing > 1 probe width Risk! : missing > probe width of visualization : not starting at xiphoid

Cardiac (sub-xiphoid)
AL : above umbilicus SL : heart + echogenic envelope AOI : pericardial space
q ID landmarks q slide towards xiphoid q clip slow sweeps ant/post
Pos : anechoic fluid at AOI : no cardiac activity Neg : no anechoic fluid : vigorous cardiac activity Indet : unable to visualize SL / AOI Risk! : clinical context is key! : watch for false positives

Legend
² Inform patients re: limitations/benefits of POCUS
² Always interpret results w/in clinical context
² Move probe in one plane at a time
² Sweep è S-L-O-W-L-Y
² AOI is always white
Responsible POCUS
² Commit to seeing entire AOI – No False Negatives ² Do not overcall OB scans – No False Positives ² Stick to NDIUP/IUP/LIUP for OB studies ² Calling indeterminate studies equally important!
