Laptop-style point-of-care ultrasound machines in the multiplace hyperbaric oxygen treatment chamber

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to assess the feasibility and reliability of modern laptop-style point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) machines in a multiplace hyperbaric oxygen (HBO₂) treatment chamber, addressing concerns about fire risk associated with electronic devices in this environment. Their findings indicate that all tested machines functioned safely and effectively at various pressures, with no fire incidents and reliable imaging capabilities confirmed across different POCUS sequences. This study supports the use of specific POCUS machines in critical care settings within HBO₂ chambers.
