There is one clinical trial.
Specific Aims: 1. The investigators will prospectively evaluate and analyze changes in the appearance of the lungs and heart through serial acquisition of focused point-of-care ultrasound images in a cohort of patients with or under investigation for COVID-19. 2. The investigators will correlate changes noted in ultrasound with clinical course and diagnostic evaluation to ascertain whether changes on ultrasound could improve care through earlier diagnosis or identification of patients at high risk of disease progression.
Description: POCUS is a 6-point scale evaluating the degree of abnormalities and number of sites with abnormalities in ultrasound images of the lungs. Higher scores indicate greater malady. Pulmonary POCUS Evaluation: B lines: absent (< 3 lines), present (> 3 lines), fused Consolidation: yes or no a. Bilateral: yes or no Pleural Effusion: yes or no Other pleural abnormalities: yes or no Score each finding based on degree of abnormalities and number of sites with abnormalities
Measure: POCUS Score - Lungs Time: up to 14 daysDescription: POCUS is a 6-point scale evaluating the degree of abnormalities and number of sites with abnormalities in ultrasound images of the heart. Higher scores indicate greater malady. Cardiac POCUS Evaluation: Parasternal long axis Parasternal short axis Qualitative LVEF: Normal, hyperdynamic, mild-moderately depressed, severely depressed EPSS (E-point septal separation): normal (<10 mm), abnormal (>10 mm) Left ventricular (LV) mass approximation by septal thickness Left Ventricular Chamber Size by internal diameter at diastole Score each finding based on degree of abnormalities and number of sites with abnormalities
Measure: POCUS Score - Heart Time: up to 14 days
