Ventriculoarterial coupling (#VAC) determines the harms and benefits of hemodynamic therapies.
VAC describes cardiac efficiency, and offers a complementary perspective to CO, MAP and tissue perfusion.
Let’s try to understand it🧵

@MStott88 There are several uses:
1 - makes the diagnosis, gets consult / transfer started. Exam not always a slam dunk
2 - allows cognitive offload
3 - dx recurrent obstruction w benign exam and labs, avoid inferior KUB or n+1 CT
POCUS happens quickly during hx

What’s the point?! Clinical exam would do. Use POCUS when it’s needed not to faff around on dying bowel.

@ThinkingCC @imgrund @petrosoniak Well said. The original thread is a thoughtful analysis that reflects experiences shared w many colleagues in EM.
It deserves a thoughtful reply.
Have to wonder about conflicts of interest - both financial and in perpetuating attention.

@imgrund @petrosoniak Maybe you’ll find the rest of us working in the trenches agree with Andrew. And we have no gain from misinformation. Employed and (too) busy either way. And the hospitals and organizations have other agendas.

As a fellow emerg doc, I'm extremely disappointed to see this inaccurate focus on COVID related illness as the main cause for incr ED wait times and staff shortages.
Rather the link to COVID is that it exposed a system that has always been non functional, but now just more so.🧵

If you haven’t seen these data: a reminder that you - and your non US faculty! - can be doing TEE.

@ResaELewiss @EmteeUs @FMaeWestMD @A_Lex_00 I think TEE in arrest will be standard in academic EDs in US/Can within the next decade. Uptake in community will be slower for the usual reasons + you need 2 people - one to run code, one for TEE.
Don’t know enough about EMS w doc on board model to know if it makes sense.

IMO #TEE in 🇺🇸 will progress ED before EMS. The model of doctors riding ambulances 🚑 eg 🇫🇷 model means they may progress more equally. Thoughts: @EmteeUs @FMaeWestMD @A_Lex_00 @mackendc

Hi @ThinkingCC @MGottliebMD @ResaELewiss @iceman_ex @Wilkinsonjonny ! Would you imagine TEE in cardiac arrest to become a standard of care in EMS or ER setting ? We are very late with the use of ultrasound in CA in 🇫🇷🤭
