"Latar Belakang: Gagal napas akut merupakan kondisi mengancam nyawa dan penyebab kondisi ini seperti pneumonia dan edema paru harus segera diketahui sehingga terapi yang sesuai dapat dilakukan. Berbagai panduan klinik untuk kasus gagal napas akut tidak menempatkan USG paru sebagai salah satu modalitas diagnostik. Meta-analisis ini dibuat dengan tujuan mengetahui akurasi USG paru dengan protokol BLUE dalam mendiagnosis penyebab gagal napas akut. Metodologi: Pencarian secara sistematik dilakukan pada studi potong lintang yang membandingkan akurasi diagnosis protokol BLUE dengan pemeriksaan baku emas untuk setiap diagnosis penyebab gagal napas. Pencarian studi dilakukan dari enam database online yaitu Pubmed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central, Scopus, Ebscohost/CINAHL dan Proquest dan sumber gray literature lain pada tanggal 6- 7 September 2020. Penulis melakukan ekstraksi data secara manual dari studi yang memenuhi eligibilitas dan melakukan analisis untuk mendapatkan data gabungan dari sensitivitas, spesifisitas, likelihood ratio dan diagnostic odds ratio.Hasil: 509 artikel didapatkan dari pencarian studi dengan total akhir 4 artikel yang memenuhi kriteria eligibilitas dan dapat dilakukan meta-analisis. Tidak ada risiko bias yang serius pada 4 studi ini berdasarkan penilaian risiko bias QUADAS-2. Keempat artikel ini mempunyai jumlah total sampel sebesar 770 individu. Dari 4 studi tersebut, 3 studi melakukan penelitiannya di ICU dan 1 studi di IGD. Sebagian besar studi menggunakan operator yang bersertifikasi dan mempunyai pengalaman cukup, sedangkan 1 studi menggunakan operator yang baru diberikan pelatihan. Sensitivitas, spesifisitas, LR+, LR-, DOR protokol BLUE dalam mendiagnosis pneumonia adalah 84% (95% CI, 76-89%), 98% (95% CI, 93-99%), 42 (95% CI, 12-147), 0.12 (95% CI, 0.07-0.2) dan 252 (95% CI, 81-788) secara berurutan. Sensitivitas, spesifisitas, LR+, LR-, DOR protokol BLUE dalam mendiagnosis edema paru adalah 89% (95% CI, 81-93%), 94% (95% CI, 89-96%), 14 (95% CI, 8-25), 0.165 (95% CI, 0.11-0.24) dan 116 (95% CI, 42-320) secara berurutan. Kesimpulan: Hasil meta-analisis ini menunjukan bahwa protokol BLUE mempunyai sensitivitias dan spesifisitas yang tinggi dalam mendiagnosis pneumonia dan edema paru pada pasien gagal napas akut. Penulis merekomendasikan penggunaan protokol BLUE pada setiap pasien dengan gagal napas akut.

Background: Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is a life-threatening condition. ARF can be caused by variety of pathological conditions such as pneumonia or pulmonary oedema and knowing the etiology of ARF is a vital component in managing ARF. Bedside lung ultrasound in Emergency (BLUE) protocol rarely used for assessing lung pathologies despite multiple studies have shown its reliable performance.

Methods: We conduct meta-analysis to compare diagnostic accuracy of BLUE protocol with gold standard for each diagnosis. Systematic search was done in 6 databases (Pubmed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central, Scopus, Ebscohost/CINAHL dan Proquest) and multiple gray-literature sources for crosssectional studies that fulfill eligibility criteria. We manually extracted the data from eligibile studies and calculated pooled sensitivity, pooled specificity, likelihood ratio and diagnostic odds ratio. We follow PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) guideline throughout these processes.

Results: Four studies, from total 509 articles collected, containing 770 subjects were included in this meta-analysis. Pooled sensitivity, pooled specificity, LR+, LR-, DOR of BLUE protocol in diagnosing pneumonia were 84% (95% CI, 76- 89%), 98% (95% CI, 93-99%), 42 (95% CI, 12-147), 0.12 (95% CI, 0.07-0.2) and 252 (95% CI, 81-788), respectively. Pooled sensitivity, pooled specificity, LR+, LR-, DOR of BLUE protocol in diagnosing pulmonary oedema were 89% (95% CI, 81-93%), 94% (95% CI, 89-96%), 14 (95% CI, 8-25), 0.165 (95% CI, 0.11-0.24) and 116 (95% CI, 42-320), respectively.

Conclusions: BLUE protocol has good diagnostic accuracy to diagnose pneumonia and pulmonary oedema. We recommend implementing BLUE protocol as a tool in evaluating cause of ARF."

"This book presents some of the recent advances in Ultrasound imaging technology covering several organs and techniques in a Biomedical Engineering (BME) perspective. The focus of the book is in the algorithms, methodologies and systems developed by multidisciplinary research teams of engineers and physicians for Computer-Aided Diagnosis (CAD) purposes.Cardiovascular and Cancer, the most common life-threatening diseases in western countries, are two of the most important topics focused in the book. However, other advanced issues are also presented such as Intravascular Ultrasound, 3D US and Ultrasound in Computer-Aided Surgery (CAS). Some chapters are direct contributions from medical research groups where Ultrasound has also received great attention in the last decade. By this, new techniques based on Ultrasound were introduced in the clinical practice for diagnosis and therapeutics, mainly in hospital facilities."

"The book is divided into three parts: 1. Anatomy, which covers relevant sonographic anatomy in the head and neck (with complementary images from CT, MRI); 2. Diagnoses, the core content of the book with detailed sonographic description of common Head &​ Neck lesions, key clinical information and practical scanning tips towards identifying the wide spectrum of diseases in this region; 3. Differential Diagnoses, which provides differential diagnoses for common sonographic signs/​appearances. Although the book is on ultrasound, readers will find images from other imaging modalities so as to highlight the importance of multimodality imaging in modern clinical practice. This book is a compilation of Head and Neck sections of three previous books published by AMIRSYS, namely Diagnostic Imaging: Ultrasound; Diagnostic and Surgical Imaging Anatomy: Ultrasound and Expertddx: Ultrasound. The text &​ images (over 400) in the Anatomy section of the book remain relatively unchanged from the earlier book. In addition to the twenty diagnoses in the Diagnostic section of the earlier book, twenty one new diagnoses/​chapters have been added. This entire section of the book now contains over a thousand images (almost all of these are new images with comprehensive annotation), in particular, illustrative images of shear wave elastography &​ strain imaging have been included. The key facts box feature of the book remains in this section &​ is ideal for a quick review for readers with short attention spans. The Expertddx section of this book has over two hundred &​ fifty images (half of which are new) &​ includes key references"
